I'm the father of a six year old. Both she and I love this game. I bought it primarily for her use since it seemed (and is) fairly tame and since the idea of (a) saving babies and (b) drawing clouds appealed to her. The interface is very intuitive and the approach (drawing clouds with your pen to guide baby mario to a soft landing before journying to find baby luigi) is imaginative and a superb use of the DS special features. The game play is thoroughly enjoyable for both six year olds and adults alike. The challenge is in besting you past scores and because the games are quick its ideal for the brief 15 minute game spurt in an otherwise hectic day. Highly recommended.
Once you TOUCH it you won't want to let it GO.

Yoshi Touch & Go is a highly original game that can't be duplicated on any other game system. It's a retro-themed game in the sense that there is no story, it's all about getting the highest score. Don't play this game expecing a Mario-esque experience. It's more like playing the same two Mario levels over and over again. That might sound more like torture than fun, but Nintendo has worked their magic on this title and I found myself addicted to it immediately.
The game starts off with Baby Mario falling from a stork flying in the sky. It is your job to draw paths of clouds to alter his decent; aiming for coins to gain points and trying to avoid the enimies flying by. You can also draw circles around enimies which captures them in bubbles that you can then fling up to Baby Mario to gain extra points. The combinations are endless and the more points you score, the faster and more agile the Yoshi that greets you once Baby Mario lands on the groud.
Once grounded, the gameplay changes to a side-scrolling environment. Yoshi automatically walks forward and it's your job to guide him past the dangers that await. Tapping Yoshi makes him jump, tap anywhere on the screen and Yoshi throws an egg to that spot, eliminating any enimies in it's path. You gain bonus points by making combos such as placing an bubble-trapped enemy in line of some coins and tossing an egg that destroys the enemy as well as collects the coins. The action can get very tense as the enemies, chasms and other obstacles keep coming in ever more intense waves.
The game keeps track of not only high scores, but the kind of Yoshi used to get them. This gives you great visual incentive to not only get the highest score, but to do it with the fastest, best Yoshi. Want to play with a friend? No problem. The game supports single cartridge network play as well.
This is a perfect game for people who like to play for short periods of time as well as those that like to play for longer periods. The controls are so intuative that inexperienced gamers will pick them up easily and won't feel left out yet the controls offer so many possibilities that more experienced gamers will be challenged as well. If you're looking for an exciting innovative game to keep you addicted for quite some time, you've got to pick up Yohi's Touch & Go.
Even my non-gaming boyfriend got into the game and has since begged me to let him play it more. I may have to get him his own DS so I can play myself!
GREAT GAME !!!!!

This game is really good. In this game you are Yoshi. You have to make clouds around enemies and protect baby Mario. There are 4 different modes to play and it is challenging. Over all, this game is great.
better than it looks...

Ok, for all you geniuses out there that are saying "I don't like this game, it's too short and it's just a gimmick," stop talking. Just becuase you're no good at video games doesn't mean you can bash the uniqueness of the DS. This game is great, and it's very hard to master. If you're looking for a good pick-up-and-play game, choose this one, and don't listen to anyone who says "No, it's stupid," or, "No, it's a bad game," because they just aren't any good at games and can't admit it. For you and me, though, the GOOD gamers, let's just leave those people in their soft cushiony short buses and move on.
Amazing Game to relax and unwind.

Its an amazing game and great fun for users of all age groups. Infact we liked the game so much we ended up buying one more Nindendo DS just to play against each other, trust me its great fun.
The games are short but if you are not a kid with lots of time at hand I find this a perfect ending to a hectic day.
Great for taking short time and mind off things.
funest game

listen here you people who wrote "fun,but not good" and "not worth the price", this game is for well experienced players...ONLY well experienced players. those people who belive these lies that those two wrote, turn around now! this game isnt only just walking over clouds that you draw, or just shoot eggs, its a challenging game. if you are a hard core player who likes challenges then this is the game for you! oh, and for those bad-mouthers-for-games morons, i will have you know that i have scored 9336 yds in marathon,307 points in score attack, 2:52:5 in time attack, and 3125 yds in challenge with a purple yoshi that you get when all high scores have been beaten. so if you even think that this game is easy, its not!
Great game

This is a great game to play with your friends. With DS download play, you can play this game with your friends, even if they dont have a game card! Yeah, the game doesent have multipule levels, but the level changes each time you play. This is a colorful feel-happy game that i recomend!

Yoshi Touch & Go is an engaging game that is easy to learn. I think you would enjoy this game very much, but that is just my opinion. Even my Mom, who doesn't like my other Mario game, loves it. I hope you buy this game. (By Jack)
The best 2D sidescroller for the DS you could get

Yoshi Touch&Go is a great game. The game uses none of the buttons, just the touch screen. You draw clouds to safely guide baby mario and yoshi away from the monsters. There are four modes. Score attack: try to get the highest score; marathon: go as far as you can without dying; challenge (this is locked): you have 100 seconds, go as far as you can; Time attack: (take a guess what this is) beat the level in the lowest time. This is a terrific and family-friendly game. Just because it's a side scroller doesn't mean that it's not good.
P.S. Please excuse any spelling/grammar errors that you find. Thanks :)
