Side stories are some of the best sections of the game

As you venture through the sci-fi and fantasy lands thought up by main characters Mio and Zoe, you’ll also encounter quite a few side stories that can be explored. These bite-sized levels tend to have only one or two main gimmicks to focus on, and they provide some of the most unique, adorable, and funny experiences the game has to offer.
These shorter levels are accessed via side story bubbles (pictured above) that often sit off to the side of an area as you move through levels. In most cases, one of the characters will mention that there’s one nearby—though not always—so be diligent if you’d like to see them all.
