This adventure takes place across three episodes, each with a number of different levels and bonus challenges to complete. That said, Toadette isn’t any slouch though waiting to be saved, as you’ll even get to play as her in the following episode in what is basically a role-reversal. He isn’t about to go beg some plumber in a red cap for help and sets off to save the day. Of course, Captain Toad is a toad of action. The adventure begins with Captain Toad and Toadette out exploring in search of stars when suddenly Wingo (a giant bird) comes along and steals the star and Toadette along with it. Thankfully, Captain Toad has now made its way to the Switch and 3DS and if you missed out on the Wii U like me, there’s no time like the present to enjoy some fantastic puzzling on the go!Ĭaptain Toad is pretty light on story, with only a handful of story beats and cutscenes happening throughout the course of the game. Still, I couldn’t help but feel distraught at the time knowing Captain Toad was released on a sinking ship of a platform. However, one of the games that immediately caught my eye during the Wii U’s life-cycle (and nearly pushed me over the edge into purchasing the system) was Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.Īs a toad enthusiast who is still baffled that after The Year of Luigi we’ve yet to experience or even hear plans for The Year of Toad, I was stoked toads everywhere were finally getting the spotlight in the form of Captain Toad. But by the time that was drawing near, the Switch was announced and right around the corner. My original plan was to wait for Breath of the Wild to release on the system before nabbing one. Personally, I never ended up buying a Wii U. The heroes must waddle, hide, pluck, throw, and power up their way through towers, wild west shacks, and Goomba waterparks, all of which are plagued with enemies and hiding secrets.The pixel toad noises have been burned into my mind You’ll get to play as Toadette once you’ve recovered the treasure taken by Wingo, the ugly, greedy bird. Always look for hidden Super Gems and Power Stars as you navigate the challenging courses. There was also a portable mode for solo play. Two players can use two Joy-Con controllers and one Nintendo Switch device to play cooperatively or competitively in the TV or Tabletop modes. The good news is that a second player can help out by throwing turnips at the bad guys.
You’ll have to make it through raging volcanoes, dangerous steam engines, eerie mansions, and even new levels inspired by Super Mario Odyssey. Our chubby hero has to navigate several courses rife with traps and perils while searching for wealth.
On the Nintendo Switch, Captain Toad has his puzzle adventure.
