This article is about the 2014 Wii U game. For other uses, see Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (disambiguation).

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a puzzle-platforming game for the Wii U, and the prequel to Super Mario 3D World. The game is based on Captain Toad's Adventures stages from Super Mario 3D World, but features extensive depth and variety, and the game's plot revolves around Captain Toad and Toadette collecting Power Stars while attempting to stop a large, scavenging bird named Wingo from stealing them. This is the second game to have a Toad as the main protagonist following Wario's Woods, released 20 years prior.

A port of the same name was released for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS on July 13, 2018.

Story[edit]

Wingo lifting Toadette and the Power Star.

Captain Toad and Toadette are out treasure hunting, climbing a structure to get a Power Star. They soon after notice feathers falling from the sky when Wingo, a large bird who is described as "a lover of all things shiny", grabs the star. Toadette attempts to retrieve it while Captain Toad is temporarily knocked over. Wingo makes off with both the star and Toadette, leaving the Captain on his own. Captain Toad must then go through stages collecting Power Stars to reach Wingo and save Toadette.

Once Captain Toad reaches Wingo's fortress, they fight, and after Wingo is defeated, Toadette is rescued and they continue treasure hunting. However, Wingo returns to steal their treasure again and ends up capturing Captain Toad, allowing Toadette to journey on a solo adventure. After another long journey, Toadette saves him, although immediately afterward Wingo reappears, captures Toadette again and blows Captain Toad away.

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.

After the credits, Captain Toad notices a Green Star falling through the sky, and chases after it, leaving Toadette in the minecart. The opening scene of Super Mario 3D World plays, though after Mario and the others enter the Clear Pipe to chase Bowser, the Green Star falls in as well, with Captain Toad climbing into the Clear Pipe to chase after it, leading into the events of Super Mario 3D World.

Gameplay[edit]

Captain Toad controls similarly to The Adventures of Captain Toad, being unable to jump. However, he can instead pull on Pluck Patches, patches of grass which can contain items such as coins, power-ups, or turnips, 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 Gems (similar to the Green Stars 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.).

amiibo[edit]

A Pixel Toad.

The game received amiibo functionality in an update released in March 2015.^[6] Scanning the Toad amiibo takes the player into a game of Hide and Seek on the current stage, in which the player must find a hidden 8-bit Toad (called "Pixel Toad") by tapping it on the Wii U GamePad.^[7] The player can only play the hide and seek game on a given stage after clearing it.

Tapping any other amiibo gives the player 1-Up Mushrooms,^[7] though they can only give the player so many before they can no longer be used, and the player must wait to use them again.

Controls[edit]

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker can only be played using the Wii U GamePad.

Luigi and Rosalina Sightings[edit]

Main article: List of Luigi and Rosalina sightings in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Like with Super Mario 3D World, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker features Pixel Luigis hidden in various parts of the game, despite not being released in the Year of Luigi. In addition, a select few levels feature Pixel Rosalinas as well.

Development[edit]

The idea of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker came to director Shinya Hiratake as a dream.^[9] 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.^[10]

Update history[edit]

Version 1.1.0[edit]

The Wii U version of the game received an update on March 19, 2015, adding amiibo support to the game. An amiibo prompt was added to the menu screen by pressing , allowing players to scan the Toad amiibo to play Hide and Seek with Pixel Toad, while any other amiibo give the player 1-Up Mushrooms.^[6]

Reception[edit]

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker received generally positive reviews. Much of the praise was directed towards the limited focus on just Captain Toad and Toadette, as well as the game's concept, but minor criticism amounted to some technical issues and the designs of some levels. The game currently holds a score of 81 on Metacritic based on 78 reviews,^[11] as well as a score of 81.01% on GameRankings based on 54 reviews.^[12]

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.^[13] Arthur Gies of Polygon gave the game of 8.5/10, and was similarly critical of camera issues, claiming they "transcended my crankiness and felt like actual problems", but praised the characters' "outrageous cuteness", remarking "Nintendo games explore their root mechanics thoroughly, finding fun through solid execution and exploration of the idea. Using that as a verb, Captain Toad Nintendos. It Nintendos hard."^[14] Chris Carter of Destructoid gave the game an 8/10, and was also similarly praising of the limited focus on Captain Toad and Toadette, stating "No other Mario characters are jumping out and stealing the spotlight here -- it's just the two aforementioned characters and their thirst for treasure that fuels the game." 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.^[15]

Reviews
Platform	Reviewer, Publication	Score	Comment
Wii U	Marty Sliva, IGN	8.2/10	"Treasure Tracker takes the core concept of Captain Toad and runs wild with it. It’s a smart, adorable puzzle game that presents some awesome locales and really rewards you for taking the time to unpack them. Despite the control issues and menu problems, Captain Toad Treasure Tracker proves that you can still be great without being Super."
Wii U	Arthur Gies, Polygon	8.5/10	"For anybody else, Captain Toad's weird little experiment would be an afterthought. But Nintendo's exercise in digging has found something pretty special — an action puzzle game that succeeds on charm and smarts, rather than reflexes and spectacle."
Wii U	Chris Carter, Destructoid	8/10	"Captain Toad is an experience that doesn't attempt to really wow you, but instead delivers consistent puzzle experiences at a rapid pace. There's more Nintendo could have done with it, but it is a puzzler in its purest form, and that will be more than enough for people who wanted more of the titular hero after playing the bonus games in 3D World."

The Wii U version is a prequel to ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', while the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch versions lead in to ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' instead. The game is based on [[The Adventures of Captain Toad]] stages from ''Super Mario 3D World'' but features extensive depth and variety, and the game's plot revolves around [[Captain Toad]] and [[Toadette]] collecting [[Power Star]]s while attempting to stop a large, scavenging bird named [[Wingo]] from stealing them. This is the second game to have a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] as the main protagonist, with the first game being ''[[Wario's Woods]]'', released twenty years prior.

 ==Story==
 [[File:Captain toad intro.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Wingo lifting Toadette and the Power Star.]]
-[[Captain Toad]] and [[Toadette]] are out treasure hunting, climbing a structure to get a [[Power Star]]. They soon after notice feathers falling from the sky when [[Wingo]], a large bird who's described as "a lover of all things shiny", grabs the star. Toadette attempts to retrieve it while Captain Toad is temporarily knocked over. Wingo makes off with both the star and Toadette, leaving the Captain on his own. Captain Toad must then go through stages collecting Power Stars to reach Wingo and save Toadette.

Captain Toad must then go through stages collecting Power Stars to reach Wingo and save Toadette.
 Once Captain Toad reaches Wingo's fortress, they fight, and after Wingo is defeated, Toadette is rescued and they continue treasure hunting. However, Wingo returns to steal their treasure again and ends up capturing Captain Toad, allowing Toadette to journey on a solo adventure. After another long journey, Toadette saves him, although immediately afterward Wingo reappears, captures Toadette again and blows Captain Toad away.

 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.
-In the [[Wii U]] version, after the credits, Captain Toad notices a [[Green Star]] falling through the sky, and chases after it, leaving Toadette in the minecart. The opening scene of ''Super Mario 3D World'' plays, though after Mario and the others enter the [[Clear Pipe]] to chase [[Bowser]], the Green Star falls in as well, with Captain Toad climbing into the Clear Pipe to chase after it.

 ==Gameplay==
-[[Captain Toad]] controls similarly to The Adventures of Captain Toad, and is unable to [[jump]]. 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 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.).

-===Two-player modes===
-In the Nintendo Switch version of the game, two types of cooperative two player modes are available in every level. Both of these modes are only available in the Nintendo Switch's TV / Tabletop mode.
-====Assist Mode====
-In '''Assist Mode''', Player 1 assumes the normal role of Captain Toad or Toadette, except for the change that Player 2 now exclusively controls the pointer.
-Player 2 also gains the ability to fire red turnips towards wherever the pointer is located. Red turnips can be used to obtain collectibles (except Super Gems and Power Stars), defeat enemies, or break small blocks. They cannot be used to activate switches, enter Clear Pipes, break Rock Blocks, or damage bosses. This mode also allows Player 2 to fire even during Mine Cart sections and to use the pointer when inside it, which is usually not possible.
-This mode is only playable using two Joy-Con controllers. Joy-Con (L) is always assigned to Player 1, and Joy-Con (R) is assigned to Player 2. When switching the game to or from this mode, all controllers currently synced to the Switch will turn off. Attempting to sync another controller will fail. Syncing a controller in the Home Menu and then going back into the game will turn the newly synced controller off. Wired controllers will also appear desynced.
-====Adventure for Two====
-'''Adventure for Two''' was added in the 1.1.0 update on February 13, 2019. This mode allows both players to control a Toad Brigade Member, with Player 1 controlling the assigned character for the level, and in all episodes but [[Special Episode]], Player 2 controlling a purple palette swap of Captain Toad. In Special Episode, Player 2 controls Toadette.
-Any control method is available to both players in this mode, as well as a sideways Joy-Con. Notably, the button to rotate the camera in this mode was changed for the sideways Joy-con configuration, and a new button was added to activate the cursor. Additionally, both players can Bubble themselves to float above the other player's head, until they wish to pop out and continue playing.
-When a player loses a life in this mode, they are sent into the Bubble. If a player is in a bubble or is in the process of losing a life as the other player does the same, the players must start the level over. If the players are too far apart from each other, one will automatically be warped to the other's location via bubble.
-If either player is using a Spinwheel and the other approaches another Spinwheel, they cannot use it until the player actively using a Spinwheel steps off.
-If either player enters a Clear Pipe cannon, or a Mine Cart, the other player will be warped there quickly. However, Doors, Pipes, Clear Pipes and others do not force the other player to warp.
-Both players can collect Super Gems and Power Stars (or Power Moons/Golden Crowns) in this mode. The player who reached the Power Star first is the one visible during the Course Clear animation.

+Like with ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'' features [[8-bit character|Pixel Luigis]] hidden in various parts of the game, despite not being released in the [[Year of Luigi]]. In addition, a select few levels feature [[8-bit character|Pixel Rosalinas]] as well.
-*The Toad amiibo is not needed to play "Hide & Seek," which is now accessible after beating a level.
-*Captain Toad's eyes in the 3DS version are larger than in the Wii U or Switch versions.
 ==Development==
-The idea of ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'' came to director Shinya Hiratake as a dream.<ref>[http://www.gonintendo.com/s/241799-captain-toad-treasure-tracker-originally-starred-link-idea-was-initially-shot-down GoNintendo: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker originally starred Link, idea was initially shot down]. Retrieved at 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 needed}}

 ==Update history==
-===Version 1.1 (Wii U)===
+===Version 1.1.0===
-The Wii U version of the game received an update on March 19, 2015, adding amiibo support to the game. An amiibo prompt was added to the menu screen by pressing {{button|wiiu|Plus}}, allowing players to scan the Toad amiibo to play Hide and Seek with [[Pixel Toad]], while any other amiibo give the player 1-Up Mushrooms.<ref name="update support"></ref>

-===Version 1.1 (Nintendo Switch)===
-The Nintendo Switch version of the game received an update on February 13, 2019, which added 2 Player co-op into the game. The update also added the Special Episode (if players pre-purchased the ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker - Special Episode'' content from the Nintendo eShop), allowing players to play the [[Shifty Shrine|first level]] as a pre-purchase bonus.
-This update also included changes to existing elements. Players can now toggle their character's headlamp by tapping the playable character with the pointer. Players may also toggle their partner's headlamp when playing in Adventure for Two mode. The second player in Assist Mode can toggle the first player's headlamp in this way.
-A "Restart" button was added to the pause screen or every level. Restarting a level returns the player to their starting point / latest checkpoint, returns their ingame timer and coin counter to 0 but keeps all Super Gems they collected. Restarting doesn't cost lives. If one restarts a level after a checkpoint, the timer will not be displayed and not saved as a player's best time.
-Additionally, this update made it so it's no longer possible to run over Spinwheels in handheld mode, automatically snapping the player to them without the touch screen input, same as in TV / tabletop mode.<ref name="Nintendo Switch Captain Toad, DLC information"></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.
