Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Reviews
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a great little puzzle platformer that fits perfectly into the handheld side of the Switch's capabilities. Despite the rare awkward control issue while in TV mode and the slight feeling of repetitiveness that can appear near the end, the creative 'Hakoniwa' sandbox-style levels are all beautifully crafted and fun to explore. Charming music, bright and colourful visuals and references to past and future Mushroom Kingdom moments make this spin-off title a fantastic addition to your Switch's gaming library.
This franchise deserves to have a future, whether that’s through DLC packs over the next year, a full sequel or even a series of mobile games. Whatever the case may be, as Wii U to Switch ports go, Captain Toad is perhaps the best of the bunch and certainly the most welcome. Essential for any Switch gamer
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker accomplishes what it set out to do by providing a delightful and straightforward puzzle experience. The worlds are breathtaking to look at, and the puzzles are perfect for bite-sized sessions wherever you may be. Although there are a couple of issues that could be ironed out, this remaster is a great pick up for any Switch owner.
Indiana Jones for children – there is no better way to describe Captain Toads adventure. The journey through various lovingly designed places is a pleasure for young and old. Optics and sound are convincing on Nintendo 3DS and even the length of the game isn't disappointing. Only the unoriginal story clouds the gaming experience a litte.

For a re-release Captain Toad Treasure Tracker is a pretty good pick. The short nature of the levels and touch controls make it perfect for Switch, especially when playing on the go.
