Pretty mediocre, great story and events but poor gameplay which is arguably the most important aspect of any video game. I never want to fight enemies and they never provide any challenge, which results in battles feeling repetitive and dull. This is further compounded by the fact all of your decent weapons brake, making me want to not play the game. Boss battles are okay, they generally do not require much thought and feel slow. Collectable Toads are nice as they provide you with a greater audience, but the confettii mechanic only provides coins(which are WAY too plentiful) and drives any OCD the player might have insane. The game's story is charming, the visuals are amazing, and the music is great. Unfortunately, this game only performs well on every level outside of the one that matters most leaving the game just okay.
