Customer Ratings & Reviews

A game designed to honor and indulge in the spirit of discovery. Mario controls smoothly and freely with the deepest set of moves and techniques he’s ever had — not the least of which is the ability to throw his cap, which can then be used to control certain enemies and use their special skills! Coins, power moves, and secret areas abound for the clever and observant explorer, making this a game with a focus on traveling, seeing the sights, and finding your own path, with some tightly-designed linear obstacle courses sprinkled throughout your journey. It’s a fine mix, and I very much enjoy it!

Great game, overall fun, gameplay is worth the time.

Seems like games these days are just dull, plain, and boring. Every now and then there are good ones, but they are often ruined with micro transactions, DLC, or made to be online only. This game offers a classic gaming experience with none of the modern annoyances must games have these days. You get a nice long adventure with a variety of worlds to explore and activities to do. With so much to do and discover, this game will offer hours of fun for weeks. Want to play with a friend? There is a 2-player co-op mode as well, only downside is the second player controls the hat character and has to stay with Mario at all times, rather than having a fully controllable character.

Awesome game to play for all age groups! Highly recommended!

The game is constantly throwing new ideas at you at every world you go to, from a ghost-like hat area to a beach world to a realistic city to a weird food world with soup as lava, all the while the controls are among the absolute best out there. It also helps that the game is absolutely gorgeous and runs near perfectly. If you own a Switch, this is a must-have

Very excellent game. One of the best 3d Mario’s and one of the best 3d platformers of all time. Very simple game good for all ages.

Where to start. This is a game I have been looking forward to it for some time. That wait is finally over and let me tell you...it was worth the wait. Visually the kingdoms are great and distinct. Locating the moon's is fun and you will quickly see you can lose track of time when you get on a role. From simple to complex... controlling Mario can lead you to some great speed runs or clever ways to get from point A to point B. Overall the game is amazing and one of my favorites this year. I completed the game with 405 moon's and am working on getting the ones I missed.

I have never put this much time into any Mario game and had this much fun the entire way through. I will admit that the game starts slow and very formulaic. But the more you play the better the levels get, and the better you get the jumping and hat mechanics the more you open up in the levels. By the end of the game you feel like a parkour God! And the fan service given to long time Mario fans is amazing! This is one of three must own Switch titles out right now in my opinion. Right up there with Zelda Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe!

Fun to play as a whole family! Even our 6 year old has fun playing the game and it's even better playing as beloved mario characters together.

Was praying this would be on the level of Mario Sunshine, Galaxy, or 3D World, and boy is it. Nintendo once again redefined Mario and made it feel fresh. The graphics are honestly amazing, even when using in portable mode, colors pop like no other, controls extremely smoothly. Only gripe is the motion control aspects. Not sure if there is a way to turn those off and use the analogs or not (havent played with settings). You can shake the joycons certain ways and control the hat. Its a cool concept but when playing in portable mode with joycons attached, its awkward.

This is one of the best games out this year. It's really fun, easy to pick up and play but hard to master. If you nave a Switch then it's a must buy.

My wife and I played this all weekend, taking turns because the 2 player mode isn't too great. That and the music being too loud/repetitive in some kingdoms are my only real complaints. The main story is pretty short (about 10-13 hours depending on how much you explore) but there is easily 20+ hours here if you want to do everything. The game is fairly easy, but does have its challenging moments. Dressing up Mario is so much fun. There are tons of references to past games, secrets to discover and fun to be had. Definitely a MUST-BUY for Switch owners!

This game delivers so much entertainment. The price is a bit high, and I would recommend used. The multiplayer is not fun though. Even still, I think the $60 was worth it. But mario 3d world + bowsers fury might be slightly better, more replayable, and has great multiplayer.

Excellent game with fantastic Nintendo Switch controls. The game looks phenomenal and has Super Mario Brothers written all over it. I can't even begin to describe how great the levels, the music, the controls, and just everything about the game is. What's even more awesome is that with Nintendo Switches portability, you can even take this game on the go, or heck, to bed with you to get a few more minutes of awesome play time in.

I've been a fan of Mario since I played it on my NES in the early 90s. This game just gives me the Mario 64 vibes when I play it. Each time I get to a new world it puts a smile on my face. If you like to explore and do quick puzzles, then you will love going through each level finding moons and coins. There are also some great new outfits to customize Mario's look! This game also has a picture mode, which allows you to use filters and different angles to capture all the cool stuff you do. This is a must buy game for anyone who loves video games.

The most highly anticipated Switch game yet, Super Mario Odyssey had a huge hype train behind it and still does. For the most part, it delivers. Odyssey is a beautiful game with tight controls, an epic feel and it makes you smile throughout. It is friendly for all ages and is highly addictive. Using your hat to possess enemies is one of the coolest game mechanics ever introduced to the Mario franchise. I love the 2D side-scrolling sections which pay tribute to the original Super Mario Bros. Overall, it is a masterpiece. It is, however, not a perfect game. Although not mandatory to beat the game, some of the hat moves in the game can only be done using motion controls. The motion controls are garbage. I would estimate that moves using motion controls have about a 20% success rate, even if you're performing the motion flawlessly. Also, the game is far too short and too easy. Although getting 100% completion is long and challenging, the main quest is too low on challenge and it's over far too quickly. I finished it in about 8 hours, and it felt even shorter. These flaws ultimately keep Odyssey from joining the elite class of the best Mario games ever made. That said, it's still a highly enjoyable experience that anyone who owns a Switch should play.

Mario has had dozens of games, and more than a handful of 3D adventures. Most of those 3D adventures never could live up to the beauty and fun of Mario 64, but this one not only is able to accomplish this easily, but it also completely surpasses it. Mario Odyssey is simply the most fun I've ever had in a Mario game! There is always something new waiting around every corner, something new to explore, new rewards every which way you turn. If you like 3D Mario games like Mario 64, Sunshine, or Galaxy, this will be right up your alley.

It's a very fun game, and it's easy to understand it's not very difficult to play so it would be a good gift for a child, recommended

It was really fast and the code worked perfectly! As soon as I paid I received it Would definetly buy codes here again

Fantastic game that hits all the major points a game should. Amazing art style, great controls, smart camera, engaging game play and re-playable. One of the things that I love about this game is the way they handle you "losing a life". Instead of punishing you with trying to find 1-Ups or keeping an eye on your lives, the game just removes some coins from your stash. The great part is that you can just run around the level and recoup your losses which makes the frustration of missing your jumps or that ledge a little less painful.
