The Captain awakes in a dark cave, where he finds another Power Star snatched away by Wingo. Toad pursues to a large mine. Meanwhile, Toadette escapes Wingo and goes off to reunite with Captain Toad, though is captured again soon after. Wingo then takes her to the same tower, while Captain Toad arrives. After a final fight, Wingo is truly defeated, and the two Toads ride off in a minecart as the credits play. | The Captain awakes in a dark cave, where he finds another Power Star snatched away by Wingo.

Instead, he can pull on [[Pluck Patch]]es, patches of grass which can contain items such as [[coin]]s, power-ups, or [[turnip]]s, which can be thrown at enemies in a ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' fashion. The camera can be rotated in any direction to view the stage at different angles. | ||
The main goal of the game is to reach the one [[Power Star]] in each stage; the player must do so by navigating each stage and solving puzzles to reach them. Unlike The Adventures of Captain Toad, the levels have no time limit and score feature. Instead, the game keeps track of the highest number of coins earned in each level and the time taken to complete each level. Each stage also has 3 [[Super Gem]]s (similar to the [[Green Star]]s of ''Super Mario 3D World'') to collect, as well as a bonus objective that appears after beating the stage, in which the player must clear the stage while performing a certain task (collecting a certain mushroom, taking no damage, defeating certain enemies, etc.). | The main goal of the game is to reach the one [[Power Star]] in each stage; the player must do so by navigating each stage and solving puzzles to reach them.

''GoNintendo''. Retrieved December 12, 2014.</ref> It originally featured [[Link]] as the hero instead of Mario, as Mario not being able to jump would not make sense. Link would explore in a diorama-style in a tech demo presented to Shigeru Miyamoto. The idea was shot down, though Miyamoto realized a potential with the idea. It was included in ''Super Mario 3D World'', where Hiratake chose Captain Toad from ''Super Mario Galaxy'' because the heavy backpack would have prevented him from jumping. After ''Super Mario 3D World'' was released, Miyamoto encouraged production of a full game around the concept.<ref>[https://www.ndw.jp/post-529/ 『進め!キノピオ隊長』開発スタッフに訊く 発想探求ツアー! (2015年1月号より)].

Marty Silva of IGN gave the game an 8.2/10, criticizing what he believed to be an over-reliance of the GamePad at times, stating "The problem here is that it's controlled both through the right stick and the GamePad's gyrosensor, and the sensor can't be turned off, so I found the camera spinning out of control whenever I moved my wrists. Also, if you're playing only off the GamePad, messages and touch-screen prompts have a tendency to pop up and really obscure your view at important moments." Otherwise, he was praising of the game, mostly to the charm, visuals, and sense of discovery.<ref> | Marty Silva of IGN gave the game an 8.2/10, criticizing what he believed to be an over-reliance of the GamePad at times, stating "The problem here is that it's controlled both through the right stick and the GamePad's gyrosensor, and the sensor can't be turned off, so I found the camera spinning out of control whenever I moved my wrists.

He was, however, critical of a few levels, and for what he opined as little to offer for players who did not like puzzle platformers.<ref>Carter, Chris.
