Session fun rating: 10/10
I played through a good portion of the second book with my daughter. The puzzles are definitely getting more complicated in most levels. There were some pretty clever ones. My favorite was a super small level featuring moving platforms, a bunch of small doors and tunnels and a green, log-throwing dinosaur. It was a pleasure to navigate through it.
Another had me navigate a dark and spooky ghost-filled mansion full of hidden paths and treasure. There was a great little level in a forest with trees that could be used as platforms. Another level had me navigate a garden labyrinth where "P" switches would raise and lower platforms. There was a fun puzzle with a double cherry item that creates a second Toadette, both of which are controlled at the same time. Some of the more difficult levels had me navigate some clear pipes to gather diamonds and avoid enemies.
I had a chance to fight the lava dragon boss again. It's kind of disappointing that there wasn't a new boss there, but at least the level design was different. There was a nice surprise after that where I got to ride the dragon and breathe fire on enemies and coin blocks for a bit! I also played two bonus levels straight out of Super Mario 3D World. I feel like these levels aren't much fun as Toad, but it's still a nice distraction.
I absolutely LOVE Captain Toad, finding every little secret is just pure fun.
