    Super Mario odyssey fell flat for me in many areas the movement is fantastic, but everything else is pretty disappointing. The music is good, but going up against galaxy 1 and 2 is impossible. The music just fell flat in many situations it just didn’t fit some areas like in the final area where you play as bowser and have to destroy 4 pillars while the song is good it just does not fitSuper Mario odyssey fell flat for me in many areas the movement is fantastic, but everything else is pretty disappointing. The music is good, but going up against galaxy 1 and 2 is impossible. The music just fell flat in many situations it just didn’t fit some areas like in the final area where you play as bowser and have to destroy 4 pillars while the song is good it just does not fit what is happening in the game. Honeylune ridge is an exception, but that’s because they had already done space extremely well and the remix of star chance fits extremely well. The collectibles are also lackluster. The purple coins are basically where normal coins would be in a different 3D Mario but they are better than the power moons. Power moons replace stars in this game ambit are something entirely different instead of a star that is the focus of the levels the power moon are a collectible that are at best at the end of a plat forming Challenge or after a boss fight, but at worst a chore that are under the ground or just around a corner the worst of these are the dog and nut stars which just require waiting and are tedious. Moons are just not satisfying to collect cause the only reward is more moons. Stars in other Mario games are satisfying to collect because their challenging and their is buildup to the stars. Moons in odyssey are where one ups would be in in other 3D Mario. Idk Mario odyssey just doesn’t have the same magic its much more joyful and lacks the depth of the other 3D Mario’s while before they had characters like rosalina who had an optional story and it was sad. Mario galaxy had a sadness to it that makes Mario odyssey look like an illumination film. The kingdoms are also not that memorable and really short in the main run through of the game each kingdom feels insanely short if you get only the required amount of moons, but getting more that the required amount of moons is tedious and feels like looking through a wasteland of a kingdom to find a random moon on a ledge. A lot of the moons are very similar making the game feel the same throughout. It is also painfully easy speedrunning the game is fun becuase the movenment is fun not because the game is fun. While other 3D Mario’s are about platforming challenges odyssey feels like a trek that goes nowhere and is barely satisfying my urge to do challenging things which are not to be found in odyssey. I understand if you like the game, but for me it was good but not greater other like other 3D Mario’s except sunshine and 3D land. Expand

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

    This game is a great experience all the way to the end. The kingdoms you visit throughout your journey are unique. I couldn't give it a 10 because the bosses lack originality and platforming challenges often feel lackluster compared to previous Mario entries like the Galaxy series and 3d world.

    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.

    Its a enjoyable game,
    You will spend some good hours to colect all the moons. there are some puzzles on the game that are very enjoyfull and some features like the transition to 2D and 3D to get some moons are wonderfull.
    The only thing i can point as an Con is the fact that if you learn how to combo the use of hat and jump the game becames easly to pass, and it loss some of its bright.

And instead of giving a difficult mode, they gave us assist mode... Other then that the core game is very enjoyable. Now for the post game. This post game is not for me, I just could not force myself to find the moons, they were in very annoying spots and I had to stop.

    MAN am I late to the party. I'll admit that I was never keen to play switch games back in high school.

I'll admit that I was never keen to play switch games back in high school. Of course I played the occasional round of Smash Bros Ultimate and I was always up for the next new Pokemon game whether it be good, bad, or god-awful. But after playing this game, I've had a change of heart for the switch. For a while, I've been trying to figure out what makes this game so enjoyable. And while there are several answers to fill in that blank, even after research I had trouble figuring. On the surface it's just another Mario 64 sequel. You explore new lands, you beat up Bowser's henchmen, you hunt down wascally wabbits...the usual. But what's really great about this one, is that the controls are tighter than ever before. And combined with the abilities of his new buddy Cappy, you can achieve some seriously great platforming feats. I still remember how long it took me to learn the careful timing of the wall jump when I was a just kid and it feels great to master it here. Combined with all the other great mechanics...enemy possession, mini-level challenges...the fact that tossing a hat is equivalent to the force of a kick in the face...that's just good stuff man. At the same, nothing really feels forced in this game. Granted you need a set amount of Power Moons to move on, but nothing feels really restricting. The lack of a live system and plenty of fair check points, makes this adventure feel pretty limitless. In my Super Mario 64 review I complained about how easy it was to die in that game...and for the past 20 years, all of the 3D games had an annoying habit of booting the player out of the level whether they reached the goal or met death. And that back tracking really got on my nerves. Now that it's non existent, I can just focus on collecting as much as I can in each stage. I've said once before that one of the most important elements in game design, is freedom. Whether is comfortable controls or enjoyable mechanics, it's vital to give players the joy of exploring a brand new land. Give them the power to conquer great challenges. Game designers that fail to understand that end up relying on pay-to win systems and outdated gameplay mechanics only focusing on making the big bucks. I can only hope that my favorite electric mouse doesn't end up like the Blue Blur. Setting that aside though, I wouldn't call this my favorite Mario game. And that mainly comes down to the game's theme. Odyssey is blend of cartoons and realism. You've got cartoony Goombas mixed in with scary as hell T-Rexes! And while everything looks really good besides the eyes of the soul stealing human NPCs, it never felt tremendous to me. 64 had a magical castle theme, Sunshine was a vacation, Galaxy had space exploration, while Odyssey is just a world tour. It's a good theme especially when you blend it with realism, creating the idea that Mario is entering our world. However, Galaxy still has the more interesting theme. To call this a successor to Galaxy would be hard to swallow. I'd rather think of this as an evolution of Super Mario 64's format. Yeah, its a shame there's no hub area connecting all the worlds...but with all the Easter Eggs in the Mushroom Kingdom, I'm convinced which fans are going to enjoy this game the most. It's a nice reminder that there's a Mario game for everyone. Since this isn't a serious that focuses heavily on story, I think it's safe to say that the Mario developers should focus on creating new styles of enjoyable gameplay rather than the creating a superior sequel. So what's left to say? Well I will say, that the Metro Kingdom levels are amazing. You get to fight a robotic hell spawn, evade a T-Rex on a moped, play a possible sequel to "Shell Shocked" from Mario Party 2, and "Jump up Superstar"...good Star Spirits I love this musical level...ITS SO GOOD! It just MAKES this game! So now that I'm on board with the awesomeness. I'll be really stoked in they pull a Galaxy 2 and make an incredible sequel to follow. By the way, have you noticed how much lore the Metro Kingdom adds to the DK Country games? Whatever, the best way to play this game is too listen to "Jump Up Superstar" on loop while you play this game. It's like the montage trailer just comes to life. I'm really looking forward to returning to this franchise in the future. I won't spoil the ending this game either, its so ridiculous and awesome at the same time that it deserves to be spoiler free. So for all the new players and returning fans, I highly recommend this game. It takes time to adjust, but once get used to the sweet new controls, you can really dance on air. Nothing's stopping from zipping to one kingdom to the next collecting piles of Power Moons with each leap. And with all the untapped potential to go with this gameplay style...JUST IMAGINE. Mario capturing the Ruined Dragon, fighting ol' Tanga from Super Mario Land 2...I don't have much to complain about. Now I just want to dream(: Expand

    It's been very long since I played a Super Mario game before, so playing Super Mario Odyssey felt quite refreshing.
    However, Super Mario Odyssey pays homage mainly to the older sandbox Mario games, which I haven't played before, and that made my experience with Odyssey interesting but also slighty... complicated.
    Now, the story, just like in every other Super Mario game, is not important.

    Now, the story, just like in every other Super Mario game, is not important.
    What's important in a Super Mario game, is the gameplay, and the gameplay in Super Mario Odyssey is the best in any Mario game I've played, and also arguably in any platformer game I've ever played; it's quite crazy, thanks to the excessive amount of different mechanics that sync in well with each other and Mario's moveset.
    Visually, it's one of the better looking platformer games I've seen in the past few years, and the music is surprisingly good as well.
    Additionally, the level design is detailed and creative, and the areas are fun to explore, albeit smaller than I expected.
    Unfortunately though, the story is pretty short and the post-game content is very underwhelming and lackluster.
    Also, the bosses are way too easy and repetitive.
    My biggest gripe with the game, however, is an unpopular opinion. I know a lot of people won't agree with me on that, and that's fine but... I really don't like the progression system in this game; collecting Power Moons to progress through the story is tedious and it brought down the entire experience at times.
    I can somewhat understand why most people like that though.

    Pros:
    + Exciting gameplay
    + Amazing mechanics
    + Beautiful visuals
    + Great level design

    Cons:
    - Short playtime
    - Boring post-game content
    - Bad boss fights
    - Progression system

    Gameplay: 9/10
    Content: ?/10
    Music: 7/10
    Art Style: 9/10

    Final Rating: 8/10
    - Great -
    Super Mario Odyssey is a very well-crafted game and it's arguably one of the better platformer games I've played in a while, but it has some serious annoyances as well.
    All in all, it's a very good game but it's also surprisingly unremarkable and a little bit... disappointing.

    Do I recommend it?:
    It's pretty fun to play for the most part, so yes.

    Super Mario Odyssey is in my opinion probably one of the greatest if not the greatest Mario game ever made, filled with tons of stuff to do and explore, and with a lot of replay value.

So let's just begin, the game has 14 kingdoms to explore (17 if you also count Mushroom Kingdom, Dark Side, and Darker Side which are the post-game kingdoms) and they are all amazing and unique in their own way, of course there are some I don't like as much as the others, most notably Snow Kingdom, but all of them are still really good. The game focuses on collecting Power Moons and you need to get enough to escape the kingdom and reach the next one. Most kingdoms are filled to the brim with stuff to explore and some kingdoms, like Sand Kingdom and Seaside Kingdom give a more open-world vibe to the game, but then others like Cascade Kingdom and Lake Kingdom
    focus a bit more on the linear sub-areas (Which I also really like). This review would probably be too long if I
    would have to talk about every single kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey and how great they are, so I'm not going
    to right now. Other than Power Moons there are also Regional/Purple coins to collect in each kingdom, generally
    the larger kingdoms have 100 of them and the smaller ones have only 50, while the ones that are just boss battles, (Cloud Kingdom, Ruined Kingdom etc.) don't have any, there are also countless souvenirs and music tracks to collect, and you can play any music track you want at any time you want, which is a pretty cool bonus feature. Now, you might have noticed I still haven't mentioned the main gimmick of this game, the captures. I love the captures in this game, some of them are practically useless, some of them like the spark pylons are extremely important and are basically necessary to beat the game. I like the gimmick because of how unique it is and it's a bit of a break from getting the exact same power-ups every single time in Mario games. Other than that there's not much more to talk about other than the outfits, which were a cool bonus feature too where you can dress up as a lot of outfits (Mostly themed to the kingdom they're bought in). And Luigi's Balloon World, which is a fun extra side-mode where you try to pop balloons that other people placed in a certain kingdom, or you can hide balloons and make other people try to find them. So, overall I love Super Mario Odyssey and it is and probably will always be one of the best Mario games ever made. Thank you for reading.

    An extremely successful reinvention of the Mario formula, retaining all the charm and polish you'd expect.

    An extremely successful reinvention of the Mario formula, retaining all the charm and polish you'd expect.

    The settings and characters are all wonderfully creative and evocative, and the gameplay is extremely satisfying. The soundtrack is second to none. Cappy should feel gimmicky (like FLUDD in Sunshine), but the new mechanics for controlling Mario work very well and allow for a relatively high skill ceiling for manoeuvring. And the capture mechanic also works well, although some enemies are more fun to control than others.

    The number and variety of Moons to collect is at once a strength and also the game's biggest flaw. There's a fair bit of a padding and a lot of very unmemorable or downright annoying Moons, but at the same time it's very fun and addictive to wonder around one of the kingdoms picking up tonnes of Moons at a time. Very different to previous 3D Marios, and for the most part it works. But less can be more, and would have been in this instance.

    An overall excellent game, with lots of quality-of-life improvements over Galaxy, but just short of perfection. Well worth your time.

    This game isn't perfect however, i did find that it was WAY too easy and did damage the enjoyment of the game overall and especially with the boss fights, they look cool but they are over before you know it and they're not very memorable as for the motion controls, they are downright **** and do nothing but make the game worse, i ended up just not using most of the "motion controlled moves" because they are just awkward and inconsistent. overall it's not perfect but what is?

Each world is jam-packed with love an attenion to detail. The plot is basic but sufficent, TL;DR Bowser kidnapped peach and it is Mario's job to save him. The plot could have been better becuase we have seen the same plot all the way back in 1985 with Super Mario Bros. The love an care this game gets is undeniable. Each world feels real and blessed with life. This time we can change marios apperance with the Crazy Caps store. For some of the Sub Areas it can be repetative to constantly restart again and agian especialy if you haven't played previous Mario 3D games and the motion controls can be unresponsive but can also be intuitive and a blast if you use the right controlers. If you decide to use the switch pro controler or play in handheld mode it isn't great, the true way to play is with detached joycons. Cappy comes in as Mario's cap is shreaded and cappy is his replacement, cappy can 'capture' (posses) any animate or inaminate object. Frogs, dinosaurs and much more. The multiplayer is horrible, the second player becomes cappy and Mario is left defenceless, cappy can infinatly make mario jump into the air and it isn't a great experience. WIth 40 outfits to buy everyone will sure to give anyone a outfit they like. All in all other than the plot (which does have some diiferences) and the poor pro controler play this game is a masterpeice and should be played, the game is 30 hours of fun. Mario Odyssey is a great game with perfect level design and amazing grafics for a Mario game. I would recomed this to anyone who gets the chance. Expand

    Esta es una de las entregas culminantes de Mario y, sin embargo, por primera vez quedó algo opacado por un Zelda con Breath of the Wild al salir ambos en 2017, aunque no dejase de vender a mansalva. Pero Super Mario Odyssey fue, de nuevo, un Mario que renovó los juegos de plataformas, llevando el género a nuevas cotas de excelencia.

    Lo primero que habría que señalar es que Super Mario Odyssey retoma los plataformas 3D más basados en la exploración, siendo uno de los Mario más cercanos al género de aventuras, contando con NPCs y tiendas, a diferencia de las anteriores entregas más vinculadas a los plataformas lineales. Es decir, es una vuelta al estilo de Super Mario 64 y Super Mario Sunshine, en los cuales el objetivo no era llegar a una meta en cada nivel sino encontrar una estrella o un sol y luego regresar a encontrar otras. Los dos Super Mario Galaxy, así como Super Mario 3D Land y Super Mario 3D World, recuperaron la linealidad de los Mario 2D, por lo que tras muchos años Super Mario Odyssey vuelve a los Mario centrados en la exploración y, es más, se profundiza como nunca en esto, reforzando su estructura de collectathon. Esta vez no se sale del nivel al encontrar el objeto en cuestión, potenciando la exploración en los diferentes mundos.

    El objeto que necesitamos para avanzar son las energilunas, pero a diferencia de las estrellas y los soles, son muy numerosas. Unas están a la vista mientras que otras están muy escondidas. De esta manera, se crea una dificultad por capas, según el grado de completismo de cada jugador, lo que se incita porque a mayor completismo se puede acceder a más mundos. Es una solución bastante equilibrada para que pueda avanzar en el juego el jugador más torpe y, a la vez, suponer un reto para el más experimentado. Es la primera vez que no hay vidas limitadas en un Mario al estar el desafío en la exploración más que en la superación de niveles.

    Pero sin duda la gran novedad es la de la gorra Cappy. Puede usarse para atacar como un boomerang así como para saltar sobre ella para acceder a plataformas, pero su gran utilidad es la de poder controlar a enemigos y algún objeto, lo que da lugar a una serie de mecánicas originales y variadas, resultando realmente divertido. Por supuesto, la jugabilidad es tan satisfactoria como en cualquier Mario, siendo una gozada simplemente controlar al personaje, lo cuál se potencia esta vez por la riqueza de sus mundos. Las animaciones de Mario son geniales, dotando al personaje de vida, con más expresividad que nunca, y además ahora por mera diversión podemos disfrazar a Mario, contando con trajes tematizados de cada mundo. Existe un modo para dos jugadores pero, como los de Galaxy, es un modesto añadido para que un segundo jugador haga algo, en este caso controlar a Cappy.

    La grandeza de este juego está en sus mundos, llamados reinos. Tenemos 15 reinos, más 2 en el post-game. Teniendo en cuenta que cada uno tiene una estructura de mundo abierto, puede decirse que es una buena cantidad. Pero si uno le encuentra inconveniente a este juego, es que hubiera querido más reinos por lo disfrutables que son, lo cuál habla muy bien del juego. Los Mario siempre han sido largos y éste lo es aunque uno quisiera que lo fuera más, pero su extensión es considerable. Cada reino es vasto, más de lo que nunca lo han sido los niveles en ningún Mario, y perderse y explorar en ellos es una gozada. Además, cada reino se compone de dos partes, puesto que cuando derrotamos al jefe en cuestión, el mundo cambia, pudiendo acceder a nuevas zonas y reexplorarlo.

    El alto nivel de su apartado gráfico hace que cada reino sea espectacular, además de contar con el sobresaliente diseño de niveles marca de la casa. Pero algo a reseñar es la intención de hacer cosas nuevas dentro de un universo que se ha convertido en algo tan cerrado temáticamente como el de los juegos de Mario. Es decir, no nos encontramos con los mismos mundos de siempre, a excepción como homenaje del Reino Champinón y de ciertos guiños como zonas bidimensionales en homenaje al clásico Super Mario Bros (1985). También hay enemigos nuevos, incluso como villanos los Broodals, aunque Bowser siga ahí. La música tampoco se queda en la nostalgia y tenemos una buena cantidad de nuevos temas repletos de personalidad que brillan por su calidad, encanto y originalidad. Una banda sonora que supera las expectativas, a la altura de las clásicas, ¡y esto es mucho decir!

    Esta estructura más abierta puede ser el futuro de los Mario 3D, como ya se mostró en el añadido Bowser's Fury del Super Mario 3D World para Switch, una expansión que se desarrolla en un mundo abierto que muestra cómo podría ser el futuro de la saga.
    Super Mario Odyssey es una obra maestra de los plataformas tridimensionales sobresaliente en todos sus apartados que destaca por su originalidad, variedad y diversión.

    And especially do NOT trust Metro GameCentral. They gave Super Mario Run a higher score than every Kirby game except for Mass Attack.
    I would trust a Hayley Atwell or Anya Taylor-Joy source like PCMag, Guardian, Gamespot, Video Chums, Screen Rant, IGN, CGM, Gaming Trend, Shacknews, My Nintendo News, VOOKS, and Destructoid, but Metro GameCentral is a racist or a Natalie Portman / Samantha Kelly, like Game Rant, God is a Geek, Slant Magazine, Games.cz, Twinfinite, Gamezebo, AusGamers, Telegraph, leetl1, livelovelaugh22, Polygon, Chaser the Ultimate Gamer, T3, Goron Dad, and VentureBeat.

    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]
