Yoshi’s Story is one of those N64 games that just oozes charm. Right from the start, you’re dropped into this storybook world where everything looks like it was drawn with crayons—super colorful, kinda wobbly, and full of little details that make it feel alive. You pick a Yoshi (I always go for the pink one, no reason) and start hopping through these bite-sized levels, chomping up fruit and enemies like some kind of adorable dinosaur vacuum.
The gameplay’s simple but satisfying—you’ve got your standard flutter jump and egg-throwing, but the real fun comes from hunting down the juiciest fruit in each stage to unlock hidden paths. Some levels even change depending on which fruit you eat first, which is a neat touch. And yeah, the music’s ridiculously catchy—you’ll be humming those tunes for days.
It’s not the hardest platformer out there, but that’s kinda the point. It’s more about soaking in the vibes and enjoying the ride. Perfect for when you just want something cheerful and low-stakes. Still holds up surprisingly well today.
