These are unlocked either by finishing the game or by using any of the Super Mario Odyssey amiibo. What sets the newer versions of Captain Toad apart are four all-new levels based on Super Mario Odyssey. It's a frustrating exercise that will tend to lead to arguments with loved ones. There's really no way to alleviate this issue, either, without removing many of the second player's functions. It's much worse in the game's minecart levels, as aiming is critical in order to collect everything. Because the camera is such a major element of this game and is a key component to getting through levels, leaving that agency to a second person often turns into a mess.

That's all fine on paper, but the problem is that player two is in full control of the camera and that's where things fall apart. Player two can also use those turnips to point out anything on-screen that the first player may be missing. The second player is an outside presence and can help out by tossing an infinite amount of turnips to take out enemies. The idea is that one player uses the left Joy-Con to maneuver Captain Toad around the world, avoiding hazards and finding the various treasures of each stage. The Nintendo Switch version of Captain Toad does feature co-op, but it borders on painful. One of our original grievances with the Wii U version of Captain Toad was that it didn't feature any kind of co-op play, given that the premise of having dual explorers in Captain Toad and Toadette seemed to lend itself to this idea. Originally tied to the Toad amiibo in the Wii U version, this special feature now comes as a standard part of the game. Even after finding everything in a single run, players are challenged to find Pixel Toad on a second run in a special hide-and-seek mode. It adds to this game's distinct whimsy and sense of humor immensely.Įach stage has numerous items to find, offering immense replay value. It's a fun approach, because it doesn't lead so much to Toad beating the bosses, but the bosses beating themselves, Inspector Gadget-style. That means pushing forward, uncovering new paths, and reaching the finish. Toad can't battle these big bads on his own, but players must approach these bosses by playing to the good captain's strengths. With these rules in mind, boss battles become refreshingly inventive. It's a test of the mind, something refreshing for this universe.
But mainly, the intrepid treasure hunter plays to his own strengths, which involve avoiding danger and finding new paths by rotating the camera around. Later levels even apply different Mario-style mechanics, like donut lifts and dash plates. Captain Toad can fall from a high area and bop enemies, he can pluck vegetables from the ground to take out Shy Guys, and cherries can create clones to help mix up the puzzle possibilities. He has none of Mario's power, but the rules of the Mario universe still apply. Captain Toad wanders through different areas of the Mushroom Kingdom, in single-screen puzzle settings, in which the object is to collect each stage's star.Ĭaptain Toad isn't Mario, which is what makes this setting interesting.
Toadette tenaciously clings onto the treasure, but as a result, she needs to be rescued. Captain Toad and Toadette discover a gold star, but are abducted by an evil bird.
The story of Treasure Tracker is a simple one.
