Video Game Review and Contest: Yoshi’s New Island

Yoshi’s back to gobble up bad guys, solve puzzles, and uncover secrets! And this time, he also has to protect Baby Mario.

We asked OWL reader and gamer Liam to play Yoshi’s New Island. Here’s what he had to say about the new game.

Liam, 9

I found the game very interesting because the different Yoshis can change into various types of transportation vehicles. The game felt a little bit easy for me in the beginning, but the last levels were really hard, so this was a bit confusing. My favourite feature was the witch who wanted to take Baby Mario. He was so funny. Overall, it was a fun game. 7.5/10
