Tap-Tap the Golden reappears in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' in [[Bowser's Castle Break-In]]. This time, Yoshi must throw eggs at it not merely to defend himself, but to get to [[key]]s located behind it. Instead of the large, open area full of platforms, it is found in a hall not much taller than it. | Tap-Tap the Golden reappears in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' in [[Bowser's Castle Break-In]].
