    One of a must buy games as a first to play on the Nintendo Switch. Epic gameplay, awesome colorful graphics, sounds, music, controls, physics, legendary characters.

Epic gameplay, awesome colorful graphics, sounds, music, controls, physics, legendary characters. You will not get bored with all the challenges, secrets, interactions of different kingdoms. Even after the end of the story that will take 50-100 hours to finish depending on your curiosity and kingdom exploration you can play a lot of hours finding all Moons. You can learn some advanced combo jump technics but it is not so necessary as you can play with or without it. Levels load time is ok. Almost no bugs in the game. The game will take only 7 MB of additional space on your device if you bought a physical copy. Well done, Nintendo! Expand

    This is video game! This is the definition of "easy to use but difficult to master" gameplay. The game is so generous and offers such a variety of situations and game design. Marvelous!

    This is the not only perfect but the best mario game to have ever existed. Out of all the mario games I have played such as 64, sunshine and galaxy, Odyssey just completely won my heart because of how Mario handles in this game, Cappy, the many kingdoms such as metro kingdom, cascade kingdom and desert kingdom the music, Pauline returns, New Donk City Festival, and the different costumesThis is the not only perfect but the best mario game to have ever existed. Out of all the mario games I have played such as 64, sunshine and galaxy, Odyssey just completely won my heart because of how Mario handles in this game, Cappy, the many kingdoms such as metro kingdom, cascade kingdom and desert kingdom the music, Pauline returns, New Donk City Festival, and the different costumes for mario such as the cowboy (my favorite), 64 mario model, wedding suit, etc. From the momment I started playing I already fell in love with this game. No words can express how much fun I had playing this game, I love this game, I love Mario, this game won my heart and will always will be my favorite game of all time. Sure 64 was nostalgic and all but it's not as huge as odyssey, and mario controls so much better than how he did in 64. Sunshine doesnt even stand a chance against Odyssey (still a pretty great game tho). And Galaxy is almost a competition with its beautiful orchestra like battlerock galaxy, gusty garden galaxy and the title screen, beautiful visuals like seeing Mario soaring through space, amazing background, and the cinematic. But Odyssey has almost all of Mario's movesets, open-world levels, great music, great graphics and visuals, and Pauline. Super Mario Odyssey is my all time favorite game it's the ultimate mario game with its controls, mechanics, settings, music, and graphics for a Nintendo switch game. I'm not good at writing reviews but my love for Mario just shows how much he influenced me or something. 10/10 Best Game Ever. Expand

    В отличии от других игр, в SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY мне хочется собрать все луны. Мне даже в The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (одной из самых моих любимых компьютерных игр) не так хочется собирать всё подряд. За 40 часов я не все луны собрал. Я думаю что это показатель, и что эта игра стоит своих 3999₽ (хотя можно было скачать на Torrent)В отличии от других игр, в SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY мне хочется собрать все луны.

Playing challenges collecting all the moons and finding all secrets. The only problem I have with this game is that I don't think the motion controls should be better than the buttons but for me, that doesn't matter. Expand

    An almost perfect game, with really small and imperceptible defects. The kingdoms are (almost) all very creative and fun to explore, and the capture mechanic is reeeally fun. I can't give this game less then 9,8

    Nos ponemos en el papel de Mario, en su misión de rescatar a la princesa Peach de las garras de Bowser (vamos, lo de casi siempre).

    El juego posee una temática espacial, en la cual moveremos a Mario entre 15 planetas, cada uno de ellos con una temática única y gran personalidad.

    Respecto a las mecánicas del juego, como siempre gran cantidad de saltos e interacción con el entorno. Como novedad, la inclusión de Cappy (el sombrero) para añadir una variedad única en la saga al set de movimientos.

    El apartado gráfico es sensacional, parece mentira que lo mueva una consola de estas características. Corre a una resolución de 900p 60 fps en modo dock y 720p 60 fps en modo portátil. Priorizando la tasa de frames, puesto que en un juego de plataformas es muy importante.

    Duración: la historia principal es cortita, entre 8 y 12 horas. Pero conseguir el 100% del juego es un reto que nos puede llevar entre 70 y 100 horas. Es bastante exigente.

    Banda sonora: sensacional como siempre.

    Dificultad: la historia es sencilla, pero conseguir el 100% del juego (todas las monedas y las 999 lunas) es todo un desafío.

    Una joya totalmente recomendable, exclusivo imprescindible.

    Nota: 10.

    Controls are great, levels are best in the series, replayability is good. This is possibly one of the best platformers ever.

    This is my personal favorite Mario game ever. The way Mario controls in this game it tuned to perfection and the levels go perfectly with Marios movement to have platforming perfection. Cappy may be the best thing Mario has ever had making platforming super fun and replayible. And the soundtrack is also a highlight for being full of life and energy.

    Il Miglior mario 3D insieme al 64. Un ottima esperienza oper world, ricca di lune da collezionare, Regni da esplorare e nuove musiche fantastiche da ricordare. Mario Odissey è il giusto passo avanti per la serie 3D che continua a sorprendermi ogni volta. Ottimo gioco, uno dei miei preferiti su Switch e che probabilmente rigiocherò e completerò ancora in futuro!

    When I first played this game when it first came out I was amazed and I still am. The kingdoms are huge and every moon feels fun to get. This is the Mario 64 sequel everyone wanted (not saying sunshine is a bad game tho). I highly recommend this game as either your first switch game, your first Mario game, or even something to play even if you somehow don't own this game it is a 10/10 must have.

    While it was difficult to imagine how Nintendo could top previous 3D Mario adventures, Super Mario Odyssey is nigh-on perfect in almost every way. With the help of Cappy, Mario has never been as fun to control, reaching new heights and, in the hands of a skilled player, accomplishing impossible skips. You need only pick up a controller to see why this is the best modern Mario game ever.

    The best entry to the best platforming series is so ridiculously huge it’s like a theme park made of theme parks. It’s a wonderful tribute to Super Mario 64, but it’s not a lazy homage. Super Mario Odyssey draws inspiration from the superb classic to top it and everything that came after it. [13/2017, p.38]

    Perhaps no past Mario game has ever elicited so many smiles as this, and even if every other winning aspect of its design were set aside, that reality alone would make it a masterpiece. [Issue #31 – January/February 2018, p. 39E]
