I started playing this game and started to think, "why am I playing this?". The game presents itself in a extremely childish manner as if it was targeting only age groups below the age of 5. The game not only sways itself a bit from the older game mechanics of the series, but changes it into a rewards system that rewards players with "money" to buy items like dolls for another new feature as a house where they can decorate it to how they want by using the "money" to buy them like said before. However, the developers rid of a death penalty system and lives to replace it with losing a bit of "money" when you get hit or fall of the map. The game brings no challenge to the player and requires little to no effort to actually beat the game. If the developers wanted to target that young audience, they did a great job as the game's ridiculously simple controls and play style allows anyone to play the game. The easy AI programs of the enemies also contribute to the game's easiness as they are meant to be easily overcome by children. The design of the levels and music also bring out that joyful and cheery mood to the players where it is never something dreaded or even slightly dark so far with my experience. Another part to the design of the game was designing the whole game with a basis on yarn which in return brings out a positive and childish atmosphere for the player which is perfect for the young players that are playing and also makes the parents feel more comfortable when purchasing this game for their child. Overall I am not looking forward to continuing this game as it is too childish, even for my mind.
