Yoshi's Story is definitely a fun game. It is very imaginative and has lots of different levels to complete. If you get stuck on one level though - it can be quite boring. In order to advance to new levels in the storybook, you must beat the level, but in order to OPEN new levels, you must get "hearts" scattered in the previous level. If you don't get any hearts, you can end up still playing the same level all of the time in Story Mode. I personally like Trial Mode, in which you get to play the levels and try to get a high score, without having to follow the storybook mode. The storybook mode has cute graphics and has a logical flow, but it can be a little immature for adult players. The storybook can be very repetitive as well because, like I said before, if you don't open new levels, you can play the same levels over and over again. This is a great game and I do enjoy playing it, but it can get quite boring after a while.Read full review
Yoshi's Story is one of those great, fun, straight-forward Nintendo 64 games that you could sit and play endlessly! It's a very simple quest to find the Tree that was stolen from the Yoshis. While there isn't much in the way of plot, animation, depth, or even characters, this game is one that provides a sometimes needed escape from modern gaming. On a similar note, it's also a great game for parents to get for children, since it includes no violence except jumping on 'Shy Guys' and eating anything and everything that gets in your way. But even then, there is no blood! A very enjoyable classic Nintendo game, and one that I remember and love from my own childhood. Definitely a worthy game!
Yoshi's story is a 2.5d game, taking place in the wonderous land of Yoshi's island. But when Baby Bowser steals the Yoshi's Super Happy Tree(no i'm not kidding...) the Yoshis go into a trace. Now its up to 6 (not including the Black and White) baby Yoshis, born after the tree disappeared. Unaffected by the trace, they deciced to to teach Baby Bowser a lesson, he will never forget. Throw eggs, eat enemys,collect coins, ground pound, sniff around, and meet Poohy the Dog, in Yoshi's story book like graphics (which make you feel like a little kid again... in a good way) Yoshi's story's main goal for each level is to eat 30 fruits. Revolving around apples, bannanas, grapes, watermelons, and the special melons. If you ever do make it to the end of a level it will warp you to the beginning in case if your wondering. Each Yoshi has their own favorite fruit as well. For example Red and Pink Yoshi love Apples, and heal for 3 petals. Speaking of petals, your life is shown by a flower on the top left side of the screen. At the beginning of a level you only have one petal, (don't worry as long as you have one petal you can take a hit and live, just don't take a hit when there are none left) if you eat a fruit, enemy, or well... anything! You can heal up to eight petals. All enemys that i'm aware of do 3 petals of damage. So look out! Just beware of losing a "life" (or letting Yoshi's health run out) because some shy guys will come and take that Yoshi. Then you can't play as that Yoshi (unless you find a White Shy Guy to save them) Once all 6 are gone. Your save data will be erased, and you have to start from the first level. :( This game offers great challage and some nerve racking platforming. Try it, and try to eat as many melons as possible. If you don't have a N64 you can get it on the Wii for 1000 Wii points. My Teenager even enjoyed it, and although he wouldn't go and invite friends over to play it. He isn't embarased to talk about it. He told me to give his highest recommendation. He also said it is great for a kids first game.Read full review
Yoshi's Story is a fun game, especially for true Mario-game lovers. The game is a storybook that you play in, much like Mario Party. The first couple of times you play it, the game is exciting and fun, but does get old. You can beat the game in a few hours, so don't expect a lifetime of enjoyment. Gameplay is also easy, so itis suitable for all ages. A must have for Yoshi and Mario fans, but nothing to get excited about otherwise.
I purchased this game for my daughters to play. It's cute and engaging, yet difficult enough to challenge their game-playing skills. The game has 2 modes - Story Mode and Trial Mode. Trial mode is geared towards racking up points, while Story mode is more involved in, well, the story. It is a little frustrating at times, but once you get the hang of how to play and control everything, it's lots of fun!
