Yoshi's Woolly World
© 2015 Nintendo of America
This clever two player co-op game lets you explore fabric-inspired stages, to find collectibles. The game integrates knitting yarn, patchwork, and other materials to create a crafty backdrop. There is also a knit Amiibo to accompany the game. Features include: toss yarn balls (instead of eggs) to clear blocked paths, tangle-up enemies, or knit together platforms and warp pipes; unravel puzzles and walls to discover hidden areas and collectables; and no time limit. There is a local 2-Player co-op mode (additional accessories required for multiplayer mode; sold separately). Developed by Good-Feel for Nintendo and scheduled for release October 2015.
$50, Wii U
