Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Reviews
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a game I never thought I'd see on the 3DS, and I could never have imagined it being ported so smoothly. With no compromise to the gameplay experience, this is Captain Toad. On the 3DS. If you want wonderful puzzles, colourful and diverse environments, replayability, and challenge. If you're ready for an adventure I would call timeless, you are ready for Captain Toad.
If you want a cute little puzzle game to sink a couple of dozen hours of relatively enjoyable gameplay in to, by all means, pick up Captain Toad. It is a solid game well worth the price point. But it is mostly meant for the hard core Nintendo fan or the younger crowd.
With its camera manipulation and touch controls Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker feels like one of those rare titles that is uniquely designed with the Wii U in mind, a game that just wouldn't be possible to this level of quality on another platform. It's not a definitive reason to pick up a Wii U, but if you already own then this is one of the best showcases of its playful potential yet. Chock full of variety and stunning to look at, this would be a fantastic addition to any Nintendo fan's library.
The most promising surprise, though, is how Nintendo transformed a popular genre that had become all too steeped in darkness and hand-wringing seriousness into a family-friendly affair without losing any of its edge.
I felt like I was a kid again finding those insects underneath the rocks, but running away at the bees that came out at times. Light on content, but a satisfying little romp that will be sure to charm everyone. Despite a price tag of $40, the game is sure to be an entertaining experience for the player. I would recommend this title to anyone who wants to try a little something new, and for Mario series fans alike – this game has something for everyone.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is another excellent addition to the Switch's expansive library of quality platformers.
