Mr. M's Adventure
You know, if I were to dive into this game with my best friends Yoshi and Luma, we would truly uncover the mysteries of the island from top to bottom! Of course, I would play the brave detective, my little arms and legs busy searching for clues, while Yoshi would chase down all the suspects – no escaping that tongue of his! And Luma would certainly sprinkle us with a bit of starlight if things got too thrilling... brrr! But I think I’d be so curious that I might just get myself stuck between a few mysterious ancient stones. Haha, what an adventure that would be! Yes, I can totally picture it: me as the hero of the story, unraveling this Fantastic island – what an experience!
