Man, Toad's World on SNES is one of those games that just oozes charm. You boot it up, and within seconds you're bouncing around these bright, cheery levels as Toad—no princess-saving drama, just pure platforming fun. The controls feel tight, and those first few jumps? Perfectly weighted, like Mario but with a slightly floatier feel that makes nailing tricky landings way more satisfying.
What really gets me is how sneaky the difficulty is. Starts off cute and simple, then suddenly you're dodging spinning fire traps while timing jumps on disappearing platforms. And the music? That bouncy main theme still gets stuck in my head. Boss fights are creative too—first one seems easy until you realize you've been playing it wrong the whole time.
It's got that classic '90s platformer vibe where every level introduces some new gimmick without overcomplicating things. If you dig retro games that don't take themselves too seriously but still nail the gameplay, this one's a gem. Just don't blame me when you start humming the underground theme at work.
