Yoshi's Safari

About

Yoshi's Safari is a rail shooter that lets you take control of Mario and Yoshi in a mission to stop Bowser’s gang from stealing Jewelry Land’s gems. Using the Super Scope light gun, you aim and shoot at waves of enemies while riding Yoshi through different environments. The game mixes fast-paced shooting with timed boss battles that require precision to take down. Up to two players can team up for co-op, making it one of the SNES’s more social shooter experiences. This game stands out as the only rail shooter in the Mario series and one of the few SNES titles built around the Super Scope. While its graphics and level design feel dated by modern standards, fans of classic shooters often praise its straightforward action and co-op play. Its short campaign and repetitive enemy patterns might not hold everyone’s interest, but it’s a nostalgic pick for those who remember the early ’90s gaming scene.
