Session fun rating: 8/10
Due to a school strike at my daughter's school, I spent the day home with her yesterday. After hours of drawing and other pre-school activities, we spent a bit of time playing Yoshi's Woolly World to relax. My daughter didn't want to play this time, but she still loves to watch and help me find the well-hidden collectibles.
I played through most of the second world. It started with a mid-world boss level, a Koopa fortress. I had to gather 4 keys from different parts of the fortress, which was littered with the familiar Koopa turtles. It was nice to be able to knock shells around to attack other enemies. Finally, I faced off against the boss, a giant, kind of obese Koopa who liked to stomp on Yoshi and spun it's shell to attack.
The next level introduced Poochy, the cutest dog in video games. The level was filled with Shy-Guys on stilts and spikes on the floor. Much of it required that Yoshi ride Poochy to safety. Next, I braved a level where lava reigned supreme. This one featured tons of treacherous jumps and giant lava creatured called Blarggs. I died quite a bit here, but I made it through safely. Finally, I explored a dangerous pyramid where I got to breathe fire and navigate dangerous underground tunnels.
Before turning off the game, I spent some time going back to previous levels of this world to find all the hidden flowers and yarn balls.
