![]() This game has great puzzle design, and I had tremendous fun discovering each and every new level, but I gave this an 8 because there isn't much replay value, the controls are awkward on the levels where you're running across platforms instead of solving puzzles, sometimes the camera feels awkward, and the narrative doesn't really give you anything. It’s infinitely satisfying to guide the adorable little pairing of Toad and Toadette through a series of perils to get to each and every star, and that happy dance they make when you do always have me a warm little happy feeling. Captain Toad is the first sideline Mario game to produce that same, childlike happy feeling in me. Their wholesomeness and charm never fail to make me feel like a child again. Though I’m mainly referring to the main line Mario games like Odyssey and Galaxy, and most of the Paper Mario games. And by smile, I don’t mean a metaphorical smile, like his games simply make me happy, I mean I actually find myself grinning like an idiot. Their wholesomeness and charm never fail to make me feel like a child Mario games have this way of legitimately making me smile.

Perhaps a 3rd book would have been a welcome addition to add into this port but there is enough variety and number of stages that lack of new content shouldn't be much of a deal breaker, perhaps we can hold out hope that they will offer DLC in form of a 3rd book or make a sequel in future, for now we can enjoy the Mario Odyssey themed level additions. No one is forcing a person to re-buy a port so I don't really see why some people get so upset when they do so. The levels are fun to play through, and there is a great variety of stages to work through, so it was an easy enough decision to get this again. Perhaps a 3rd book would have been a welcome addition to add into this port but there is enough I'd originally played this on Wii U.

Regarding differences between this and the Wii U version, there's not much. These controls felt awkward to me, and although I got used to them somewhat as I played, it's not as good as the Wii U version. Whereas the Wii U version has you touching the GamePad screen to move platforms, here you either have to touch the console screen in handheld mode or, on TV, move a cursor (with the controller) to the platform and press a button. The puzzle gameplay is as great as it was on Wii U.except for the controls. Sometimes they are hidden behind head-scratching puzzles.
