How Long to Beat? - Yoshi’s Secret Book Playtime
Today I'll share my experience. The first time I saw Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, it brought a big smile to my face.
And To be honest, I thought it was such a cute and small game, I thought it would be over in just 2-4 hours.
And you know what, But I was surprised, to be honest, I was a little sad at first when I realized I was just going through the levels without paying attention.
you know, I'm missing all the hidden things. And one more thing, I feel like I'm being unfair to this game.
After much thought, I paused, considered, and then began playing.
With great difficulty, I searched through each page, each chapter.
And then the first time I completed a level with all the collectibles, I was very happy.
To be honest, that happiness was on a different level. So Now listen to me, if you too are going to get lost in this lovely book.
then listen to me carefully how much time it is going to take you so that you do not make the same mistake as me.
The Main Story - Rushing Through The Pages
Listen to me carefully, if you are in a hurry like me in the beginning and just want to finish the story.
Then the good news is that this game is not very big. And One more thing, if you run nonstop to the end of each level.
you'll finish the game in 12 to 15 hours. If you play a little more slowly, it'll take a maximum of 20 hours.
So you know, But I tell you the truth? I've experienced that playing like this isn't fun, and it's sad that the game ended so quickly.
The Full Completion - Hunting Smiley Flowers
I've found that the real fun lies in completing this game 100%. One important thing.
do you know what the best part of this game is? And Yoshi doesn't have any new abilities that require you to come back later.
It's quite true that you can collect all the Smiley Flowers the first time around.
And you know, To be honest, if you play carefully, you will pick up everything in 30 hours.
But yes, I cried the most when I set out to find the discoveries of each creature.
I've noticed that some things just get missed and you have to try again and again.
So Understand my point carefully, if you really want to find each and every pin.
then to be honest it will easily take you 40 hours. And If I speak my heart out, when it comes out 100%, my heart becomes happy.
The Structure - Flipping Through Chapters
To be honest, this is absolutely true. This entire game is designed like a book, I've seen it, so there are 12 chapters in total.
First, it starts with Wildwoods and Mountaintops, and then you'll move on to Moon and Special Studies.
And you know what, Then, the last two chapters (Chapter 11 and 12) are bonuses.
You may be surprised to hear this, but the truth is that they have nothing to do with the story (Chapter 11 and 12).
But they will ruin your condition to such an extent that you will lose your mind.
My Pro Tip: My pro tip for you is to play slowly and check every corner. If you rush, you'll miss the fun. If you need any other help, let me know by commenting.
