''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future ''Yoshi's Island'' games. When the Yoshi comes into contact with an enemy, baby Mario becomes separated from Yoshi, encased in a bubble and floating around in the air. While baby Mario is in this state, a [[Countdown Timer]] appears, counting down in seconds until it reaches zero, in which time Yoshi must recover baby Mario or Kamek's [[Toady|Toadies]] take baby Mario, and the player loses a life. The Timer starts at ten seconds at the beginning of each level, and can be increased to a maximum of thirty by collecting [[Star (Yoshi's Island series)|Star]]s, using [[10-Point Star|10 Point Star]]s and [[20-Point Star|20 Point Star]]s, and entering [[Checkpoint Ring|Middle Ring]]s. If the Timer falls below ten, it increases back up to ten slowly after recovering baby Mario. Entering a Middle Ring also marks the point where the Yoshi can continue from if it loses a life. Other ways Yoshis can lose lives are if they touch spikes or thorns, if they fall off a cliff, if they touch lava, if they get eaten by a Lunge Fish, or if they get crushed by moving platforms. In these cases, Yoshi's death is shown onscreen, either by spinning and collapsing or flying offscreen | ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future ''Yoshi's Island'' games.

There are six worlds in this game, and each world has nine levels total. The objective of each level is to reach the [[Goal Ring]] roulette. There are ten spots on the roulette, and five of the spots can be made winning spots by collecting the five [[Smiley Flower|Special Flower]]s in each level. Landing on one of the flower points allows the player to play a [[Bonus Challenge]]. These Bonus Challenge allow Yoshis to either gain lives or [[Special Item (Yoshi's Island series)|Special Item]]s for use in levels. Two levels in each world are forts and castles, and the goal in those levels is to reach and defeat the eponymous boss that resides in those establishments rather than reach a Goal Ring. Most bosses are regular enemies that are enlarged by Kamek prior to the fight, with a few exceptions. | There are six worlds in this game, and each world has nine levels total.
