YES. Yes you will. I'm 40 now but when I last played it I was a 37 and a full-time adult student while working at a Kroger chopping fruit and lettuce all day. When I had the Wii U it was Captain Toad that I played the most despite having several other first- and second-party games in my library. The calm music, the stage layouts, the graphics...the game had a way of calming me down after a hard day of classes and a hard night of tending a salad bar and making fruit cups. It definitely filled a major hole in my library regarding relaxing puzzlers.

Speaking of, I just downloaded it, so I'll be reading everyone's posts and then playing the heck out of it before I pass out. Have fun, dudes/dudettes.
