The Koopalings are equipped with powerful mechs built by Lemmy Koopa and possess one of each of Jewelry Land's twelve gems. Mario armed with the Super Scope and mounted on Yoshi sets off to retrieve these gems. | ||

After defeating the Koopalings in the Light Realm and freeing King Fret, Mario and Yoshi head to the Dark Realm to save Prince Pine from Bowser. At the end of the game, a code for a harder game is given to use at the title screen. This not only changes the colors of the levels, but it also makes the bosses harder and changes the text of the story scenes to say that the events of the story are repeating themselves. | After defeating the Koopalings in the Light Realm and freeing King Fret, Mario and Yoshi head to the Dark Realm to save Prince Pine from Bowser.

The game is played from the perspective of [[Mario]], who rides on Yoshi's back and must shoot incoming enemies with the Super Scope. Yoshi's head is always visible, and accidentally shooting at him causes a loss of health. The Super Scope could fire automatically, which quickly drained power. The RPM of the Super Scope would decrease when its Power Meter was close to empty; when it becomes completely empty, the Scope will continue firing, but only one shot at a time, even if the Fire Button was still held down (signifying that the player needs to release the Fire Button and let it recharge). There are two [[Fire Flower]]s in the game, and collecting them increases the amount of time that the Scope can shoot before needing to recharge. | |||
''Yoshi's Safari'' puts some emphasis on platforming, and at times it's imperative to jump (via the Cursor button) in order to avoid some obstacles. Also, there are branching paths that leads to different enemies, mini-bosses or prizes; they always end with the same main road, which leads to a boss. The bosses include the [[Koopalings]], with some of them piloting Mechs; bigger versions of normal enemies (such as a large [[Magikoopa]] or the [[Big Boo]]); and Bowser himself, wearing a suit of armor equipped with two Gun-Hands and a devastating energy cannon located in the stomach. | |||
