Yoshi's Island is a good platformer that has a very cutesy crayon feel about it. It is similar to Mario's adventures, and if you liked those games, then this one will surely be on your Top 10 games list. This game, apaprently, is much better than its predecessor for a variety of reasons. Here, you can drop loads of babies on Yoshi's back to annoy enemies, and overall the babies have a bigger role. The plot is that the evil wizard Kamek kidnaps baby Mario and baby Luigi, and the rest of the babies as well. Overall, it is a really fun game, with great music and graphics. It's more on the easy going side, if you haven't figured that out already.

However, it does have a couple of annoyances. Like there is no multiplayer mode, which is a shame. Also if you were a fan of the earlier game, you might not like the clean graphics this version has to offer. But, this doesn't take anything away from a brilliat platforming experience.
