    Good addon to enhance the port to switch of Super Mario 3D World. This mode lets you in a more open world area filled with different cat shrines and areas to explore. Its a new way to play a Mario game and I quite frankly enjoy it, i think its a good transition for the series and, when developed further, it can become a new staple of the series.

    This game is a ton of fun, especially with company. This is my favorite Mario game after Odyssey.

    Both games are great. One of the best platformers, very responsive gameplay and a lot of fresh ideas, nice challenging pacing. Both games are not too long and both of them have lot of great post finish content.

    Beautiful graphics, great character selection, awesome levels and for me, a completionist dream. It was fun from start to finish and the challenge upspike later in the game is fantastic, really puts you on the edge of your seat.

    This game is great for a casual playthrough. 3D World is great to play solo, with a friend, with your grandma, maybe even with your dog. Maybe it isn't much of a challenge for more experienced players, but there is still fun to be found.

    Super Mario 3D world is one of my favorites from the Wii U era and the additional content is short but it make it worth the purchase.

    If you are a Mario fan (or gamer in general) this is a no brainer.
    The graphics are amazing and you will be pleased with the gameplay.
    It's obviously worth of adding this to your collection.

    Packaging a multiplayer linear 3D Mario with a fully open-world 3D Mario should be illegal.

    I've played both the the Wii U and the Switch versions, and I think it's safe to say that I prefer the Switch version judging by the gameplay and value.

    Fantastic game. Must play and buy. Bowser's Fury is a good add on for extra gameplay. Super Mario 3D World remains one of Mario's best to this day.

    Starting with 3D world base game, it was an absolute treat. I had much more fun then expected! The levels are well designed and the collectables are MOSTLY obtainable. Basically the game rewards you for exploring. The diversity of the levels create variety of gameplay which is always welcomed.
    When exploring the hub world, there are bonus areas (such as timed challenges and Captain Toad levels) that made it exciting to progress. Occasionally you get bonus rooms to gain some extra lives or power-ups. Speaking of power-ups, although only 5 power-ups, they were diverse, displaying classic power-ups such as the fire flower and original power-ups such as the cat suit. The new power-ups I found to be the most unique throughout.
    I like how you can choose your characters along with the ability to have multiplayer where as many as 4 players at the same time can cause chaos.
    The only issues I had with the game were some collectables were cryptic to find and had on a rare occasion look them up as I wanted to play the final Captain Toad level. I also found about 10 levels had a high difficulty spike and can easily frustrate due to being unexpected. There was a level in World 4 that was more challenging then any level in World 5 (World 5 is my fav World). Despite the levels listed, there was quite a few levels that were too easy and lacked a serious challenge even in areas like World 6, hence the difficulty imbalance. There are special power-up to aid players if they get stuck and die several times.
    Even with it's flaws I highly recommend for a seriously fun time, 86%
    The addition to Bowers Fury was a smart choice. This seriously adds value to the Wii U port making it worthwhile. Think of it as a hybrid to Mario 64 and Mario 3d World. In summary, I loved Bower's Fury! Dare I say, more than Mario Odyssey. Reason being is each main collectable (shrine), had a task to complete to get it and were consistent in challenge and difficulty. There was one shrine I can curse and hate getting, it wasn't hard but super annoying and costs me many attempts. Otherwise my main complaint is, I wanted more and hope they expand on this concept. It took me about 10 hours to 100% Bowsers Fury and would encourage all to do try it out. 97%    … Expand

    A great package that's actually worth full price. 3D World is already a very good game and Bowser´s Fury is easily one of the best Mario games of all time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The camera is extremely uncomfortable，and Bowser's funy is so chaotic. Like ING said：“Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury packs a tonne of engaging gameplay, but neither component comes together as elegantly as it might have done. This is a solid option if you’re craving more Super Mario for your Switch, but it’s not the moustachioed must-play I was hoping for.”… Expand

    3D世界还是传统的马力欧箱庭式过关并且收集星星与图章，不过从2D到了3D。亮点是可以最多四人一起玩（全程一个人）以及变身猫咪和狸猫，关卡难度有难有简单，通关前的关卡还是比较简单的，3星不难。通关后的银河关卡明显难了一个档次，甚至都很难走到终点。
    狂怒世界个人感觉更好玩，开放世界到处都是关卡和游戏，能看到游戏是在为奥德赛做准备。还能和库巴王Jr.一起冒险，通关后就可以传送了，而且可以看到哪些地方还有没有收集到的星星，比较人性。
    总体来说这个游戏还是传统的马力欧游戏，20+小时，收集数量和质量也很合理。但价格较高，建议打折时入手。    3D世界还是传统的马力欧箱庭式过关并且收集星星与图章，不过从2D到了3D。亮点是可以最多四人一起玩（全程一个人）以及变身猫咪和狸猫，关卡难度有难有简单，通关前的关卡还是比较简单的，3星不难。通关后的银河关卡明显难了一个档次，甚至都很难走到终点。

It’s got a nice mix of classic and modern Mario goin’ on here: move through worlds and levels while wanting to explore for Stars. It’s great. But, what I love is how the game lulls you into fun and easy levels, only to get progressively harder, and even damn near frustrating on the unlockable worlds. It has something for everyone. Bowser’s Fury is more open world like Odyssey, and it’s just tons of fun. I wish it was just a bit longer, but I had a blast anyways. It’s good, it’s fun, it’s sometimes stressful; just get it!… Expand

    The main game is pretty fun with great level design, and gameplay, but it pales in comparison to the Galaxy franchise in every way. The dlc would be fun if Bowser didn't come and interrupt me every 5min. Recommend for people that did not play the original and wants more Mario.

    Super Mario Odyssey is still the best Mario game, but that doesn’t change the fact that 3D World is up there among the best platformers ever made. So is Bowser’s Fury, a game much smaller in scale but still phenomenal. [04/2021, p.40]
