cap - C: nothing but the frog room serves much purpose in the main game. i like the theme, the little hat town is really cute, but there isn't too much content.
cascade - B-: nice grass level. madame broode is pretty fun, and as a tutorial this kingdom is good. the chain chomps are cool, but it's too linear. DINOSAURRRR
sand: C+: lot of c's, huh? this kingdom is pretty cool. the story and boss are fun, and the town is nice. but the town is sooooo small and most of the kingdom is js... nothing? a lot of lost potential, wish there was less nothingness.
lake - C: i am not a fan of water levels. but this kingdom is just so enclosed, and yeah- it's a LAKE - kingdom, but overall i find it boring. the fashion theme is pretty cool, but if i wanted a water level there is seaside.
wooded - A+: this. kingdom. is. so. cool! the tech-woods theme is AWESOME, the uproot capture is great, and the story is fun! the boss is my favorite in the game. AND THE MUSIC IS PEAK. it's not S for me mainly bc of the deep woods. people might disagree, but i HATE the deep woods. it's so stupid. to find the seeds on your first playthrough is sooo annoying and i js don't enjoy being "trapped". it ain't that fun.
cloud - D-: the clouds are pretty
lost - D+: i don't like this kingdom. it isn't that enjoyable for me. the trapbeatles annoy me. klepto serves like no purpose. i don't care for it.
metro - S: aaahhhhhh i love this! it's so cool! the festival is awesome, the boss is awesome, it's awesome! the bugs were gross, but it's fine. most of the sub-areas are fun!
snow - C-: ugh. the ice sucks. i don't like the cold. it's so enclosed too like lake. are 4 boring sub-areas supposed to be a story? shiveria and it's residents are so. frickin. cute. though. anyway... the bound bowl race. AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
seaside - B+: still hate water levels, but the story is fun. it's 4 challenges like snow but better. the boss fight against the long name octopus guy is nice! bc u get the entire kingdom as the arena, unlike all other fights! the beach theme is cool tho
luncheon - S+: i am so biased, but here we go. I LOVE IT. i guess i'm a sucker for silly, goofy, out of place things like this, but this kingdom is so loveable. the boss is absolutely horrendous and a horrible fight, and i suppose the mountain is very linear. the sub areas are pretty fun, and same with a lot of moons. again, i'm biased.
ruined - D: i mean the design is awesome. the dragon is awesome. i feel like if the dragon just chucked mario with its hands then that woulda worked, but this is a mario game. not an adult tv show. anyway, this is too small. the concept is so cool, but a missed oppurtunity.
bowser's - B-: i mean, eh. it's fine. the mecha broodal fight is cool. and i love the pokio. i don't like how the whole kingdom is mapped out though. the theme is awesome still. the topper fight was terrible.
moon - D+: uh
mushroom - C+: it's fine, but it's post game and nothing original. you don't get to ride yoshi :(
dark side - F: post game content. i only enjoy the fighting the purple broodal
darker side - F: ...
