Yoshi's Woolly World WiiU

You can accompany Yoshi in "Yoshi's Woolly World" in a woolly platform game that is full of bright colors and grippy materials - only on Wii U. A hand-crafted world awaits you and Yoshi, who is made entirely of wool this time. With Yoshi's well-known abilities, you can reveal all kinds of secrets and track down collectibles: with a flick of Yoshi's tongue, you can rip open entire walls, by throwing balls of wool in a targeted manner, you can create new platforms, and with the flutter jump, you can reach areas that actually seem out of reach.

The Yoshis lived peacefully on the Wool Atoll until the nasty crochet guy Kamek showed up there.

Disaster is brewing on the Wool Atoll.

On the wonderful island paradise in the middle of the sea of ​​crafts, the Yoshi gang enjoys another relaxing and fun day... until the devious Kamek appears. The nasty crochet guy turns most of the Yoshis into balls of wool; only a few of them are able to unravel his plan and chase him away before he can cause any more damage. The remaining Yoshis join forces and set off on a journey to save their friends.

Yoshi's amazing talents

Kamek uses his magic and turns most of the Yoshis into balls of wool...

Even in his new woolly form, Yoshi has a whole basket of tricks up his sleeve, including his signature abilities such as swallowing enemies, the flutter jump that lets him reach higher platforms, and throwing items to knock out enemies or open new paths - but in this adventure, Yoshi throws balls of wool, not eggs. You can swallow enemies, untie knots, or knock baskets of wool to get balls of wool that you can then throw at enemies, or at switches to clear your way. You can also use them to knit new platforms that you previously only saw as a knitting pattern outline. Yoshi can also transform into a number of other shapes (e.g. motorcycles, airplanes, or moles) to be able to traverse different level areas.

...but some can unravel his plan and chase him away before he can do any more damage.

There's more to discover in Yoshi's Woolly World

There are collectibles scattered throughout the tracks, but they're not always easy to spot. Glowing jewels are everywhere, but some other objects are well hidden. Pushing on suspicious-looking walls can push them back and open up new areas. Or you can untangle the scenery to discover secrets and throw balls of yarn to reveal invisible objects. Collecting Cheshire Flowers unlocks new tracks, and using Wonder Yarn you can save Yoshi's friends and get new Yoshi patterns. Stamp patches, on the other hand, earn you stamps that you can use in Miiverse.

The remaining Yoshis join forces and set out on a journey to save their friends.

Experience the adventure together with a friend.

You can tackle the adventure together with a friend or family member in local co-op multiplayer mode. By working together, two players can cover a larger area when searching for objects or battling enemies. You can also help each other reach new heights: jump off each other to gain more momentum or throw your companion like a ball of yarn into hard-to-reach places.

Everyone can have fun with wool.
