Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very fun game to play for all ages. I could not put this down. Graphics and worlds look amazing. This game encourages exploring and it is very rewarding when you do. Cappy is a welcome addition and I feel I will have a hard time adjusting if future Mario games do not include him. Highly recommended for all Switch owners.

This game alone justifies the purchase of the Nintendo Switch. This is Mario at his best. As a long time Mario Bros. fan it will take you back to your younger days and as a new comer; it will give you a taste of classic and modern Mario. The game looks great, sounds great and controls great. Another awesome job by Nintendo

My 6 year old loves this game. It's a fun game to play at any time. It's great to know when you are down with the story mode you can continuing playing. I enjoy playing this game my self! Haha. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone. And plus, it's a Mario game! :)

The game is really good, super fun, plays greats, and looks fantastic. The hat mascot really add a new dimensions to the Mario game play, and the different environments are really creative. My only complains are that the camera are kind of wonky sometimes, game is too easy, and it does get a little repetitive after awhile.

The last Mario game I took seriously was Mario 64. I played Galaxy a bit, but it didn't really suck me in. This did the opposite. The Cappy mechanics make running around fun, and the hundreds of moons to collect keep you coming back just to run around and see what you can uncover. The only platformer you really need.

While the story is still just a generic Bowser kidnaps Peach storyline we’re all used to by this point, does anyone play Mario for the story anymore? Which is why all of the charm of this game comes from actually playing it. The controls are as smooth as ever and is probably the best Mario has controlled in a 3D space. The worlds are open and make you want to explore every inch of it. And the game rewards you for doing so. The new capturing mechanic leads to some fun puzzles to solve or some really fun platforming sections. The costumes from the shop are all references to Nintendo and Mario history (for the most part) and all just add to the charm of the game. And the adventure continues even after the story is done, but I won’t say anymore about that here. This game is quite possibly the best 3D Mario game Nintendo has made and it deserves all of the praise it gets. If you like Mario and have a Switch, you owe it to yourself to play this game. It will not disappoint.

The graphics are actually really good for a Nintendo game. They really know what they're doing with stylized art instead of pushing realism. The sound has some of the best original game scores that keep you entertained level to level without ever feeling obnoxious . Mario has lots of fun outfits to collect. Some specific to a level that's purchased with special coins for that level, and some you buy with normal coins you collect through out the game. The game it self has a VAST variety of activities such as collecting moons to power your ship to get to the next level, collecting coins for out fits, finding secretes, winning races, solving puzzles, and possessing just about any creature you encounter. Odyssey makes sure your never too punished by just taking away some coins if you die, and there are plenty of check point/fast travel points all over. Some of my favorite moments are the 2d Mario platformer portions they have sprinkled throughout the game. Mario has basically his entire move set from Mario 64 with did tweaks, changes, and additions of course. Over all this game is a must buy if you own a switch!

Mario games never gets old. It keeps the same essence than its ancestors but better. A new mission, new worlds, new abilities. Its beautiful, its fun, I can play for hours and don't get bored. I really recommend this game if you get a Nintendo Switch. Mario games are always a warranty of fun and this is a basic one.

This game blew me away. Taking inspiration from older Mario titles, it puts everything together into a stunning modern Mario title that feels fresh and familiar at the same time. Mario Odyssey has it all: plenty of content, ultra responsive gameplay controls, wonderful music, and just plain fun. An absolute joy to play.

Super fun, great gfx, and tons to explore and do..

We purchased this game for my 9 year-old daughter as a gift. (She had asked for it after she had tried it out in-store on the demo Nintendo Switch.) She played it with her 19 year-old big sister as soon as she unwrapped it and they both had a great time. Definitely recommend!

This is a really fun game and got it at a great value.

We enjoy this game as a family. It’s fun to watch others play as well. Will definitely be getting more controllers in the near future to play

I never really cared for Mario but this game made me really appreciate it so much. Such a fun game I’ve played it 3-4 times and can’t wait for the follow up

I am an adult who plays this game, with younger brother that play this game. When I first saw the trailers for this game, I felt a little indifferent. I loved N64's Super Mario 64, GameCube's Super Mario Sunshine, and Wii's Super Mario Galaxy (my favorite). I was let down by Super Mario Galaxy 2. I thought they were trying too hard to make it like the original Galaxy. My boyfriend was very excited about the game, so I pre-ordered it. I picked it up the day it came out and we immediately started playing. My first thoughts were WOW. The music, the graphics, the controls, everything. It was new and fresh and unlike any other Mario game, while maintaining the same wonderful colors, art, familiar movements, loveable characters, etc. of the other Mario games. It takes what you know and love and grows from it. It's a brand new adventure! Definitely up there with my favorites! We enjoy it, just as my younger brothers (5-8 age range) enjoy it on their Switch. The ability to take such a fantastic game on the go also blows me away. Seriously, if you are contemplating getting this game, DO IT!

This is a great open world and it comes with my favorite game character Mario! Not too easy but not too hard, this game was fun enough that no matter how many times I fell or died, it was still worth playing again and again. Super glad I bought this game. I can tell it's gonna be a keeper.

First let me say this game is not perfect as very few rarely are. This is a great game and holds to the nostalgia of the series as it should. New mechanics with old buddies make this a fun game for sure. It’s biggest positive is that I can play it and kids can play it alike. It’s a good pickup and play sort of game.

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

One of my favorite games on the switch. It reminds me of Mario 64 with better graphics and a cool twist by bringing you back to the nes days in certain parts. I like the collection system of the game like that of the n64 version of stars. Very clever and hopefully we will get another Mario out of this switch.

Phenomenal game! Just incredible how far Mario has come. So many retro callbacks and great level design.
