The game is very bland. The story arc is good and was nice to go to a different atmosphere for a change. The controls of mario are a little tricky to pick up at first but then become slightly good at best. Jumping is very difficult without the F.L.U.D.D. system. Trying for 100% is an insane task. The blue coins are difficult to find by themselves but not knowing how many you got from which place really makes it hard to know which ones you do and dont have unless you keep track from the beginning. Some stars are very hard to get as well. And trust me you will die ALOT. I also absolutely hate yoshi's controls. Playing this game to say I've beat it or I'd quit now.
