Customer Ratings & Reviews

For parents who don’t play games: A sandbox game is a game that gives you the freedom to do whatever it is you’d like whenever you’d like. This game is good for children of all ages due to its Assist Mode, helping them (or parents without gaming experience) find their way with helpful blue arrows. Review: Super Mario Odyssey manages to keep the same feel as every other Mario you’ve played (since N64) without the glorified loading screens. The game focuses on saving Peach from Bowser by powering up the spaceship Odyssey with moons from each kingdom. Which moons you collect is entirely your choice. The story is good and the visuals are awesome. Single-player is my preferred method but you can play two-player, each player using one of the Joy-Cons. If you’re looking for a two-player game that allows both players freedom, don’t buy this. Player Two has control over Cappy and relies heavily on Player One to move around the kingdoms.

Most gamers already know whether they like Mario games. If you dislike them, then Mario Odyssey won't change your mind. But if you do like them, then you can rest assured that this one is as great as any of the others. It doesn't quite live up to the insane hype around it, but it is still very good. This is the same style of cartoony 3d-platforming collect-a-thon as Mario 64 and the Galaxy games. The main storyline takes around 15-20 hours if you play at a normal pace, and it's fairly easy for the most part. However, there is a huge amount of post-game content that you unlock after that, and some of it is quite challenging. No DLC or microtransactions here...you can unlock everything without pulling out your wallet again. There are only a few real flaws in Odyssey, and none of them are very bad. If you're on the fence about this game, then I would recommend you give it a try. It's my #2 favorite Switch game behind only Breath of the Wild.

This game is unique and very fun. I havent played a mario game like this since super mario sunshine. I highly recommend this game if you are looking for something new and fun.

I really enjoyed the Wii 3D mario games in Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2. Then, with Mario 3d World it kinda went downhill. However, I really enjoyed this entry in the series. It takes some of the excitement of surreal worlds and grounds them a little bit, bringing Mario into some of the most "realistic" worlds yet. Having already completed the main storyline, it is in traditional Mario fashion, no deviation from the status quo. For me, however, Mario games are more about the creative gameplay and boss battles than the actual storyline or cut scenes like in other video games. After completing the story, there is still so much exploring to do! I spent a solid two hours on one world alone trying to gather the power stars, and I was nowhere near close to collecting all of the stars there. Every single star seems to be creatively placed in its location; nothing seems to be by chance, but instead intentional. Overall, would definitely recommend.

It took me a moment to post a review because the first thing I did was start the download and jump into the game. I never flipped it, and it was the perfect time to pick it up. ^_^

I never like 3D games. But Mario Odyssey is an exception. Maybe because I am playing it on a handheld/tablet size screen. I played the very first edition of Mario which is from Nintendo back in the 90s. Last Mario game I am into is Super Mario Brother for SNES. After those I have never got back into any of the Mario games. Mario Odyssey really got me back into playing video games again and this game really pack way more stuff than what I expected. The bosses was easy to defeat which I have no problem with. The one great thing I love about this game are that there are no one way to play. Depend on the skill level you are which have to do with control and handling, if you are one of those who can do super jump, you will be able to explore a whole new world behind the scene which I think this is the mater piece of this game's creation. Nintendo really nail this game and I will recommend it to all of my friends.

One of the best puzzle adventures games I have played.. It is currently the second game I have played on the switch. It looks amazing graphically and fun for all groups of people. 2 player is suprisingly satisfactory as Mario Galaxy on the Wii always felt lacking in that.

This game brings me back to my childhood, keeping a huge smile on my face the whole time you are playing. The main game takes about 15-20 hours, but the best part of the game is after the credits roll. There is so much to do I can see myself playing this game for months.

Bought this for my son for Christmas so I have t actually played it yet. But as far as shipping speed and the order process everything was perfect. Super fast delivery

Want to feel like you over at your friends house playing N64 again? Perfect. The game is easy going but also challenging enough to not get bored. The hat throw is a lot of fun and almost limitless power ( threw it on a T. rex!) a lot of fun for adults and kids alike.

Super Mario Odyssey brings back the awe and grandure of a 3D free-roaming exploration platform game in the same vein as Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. While the latter game did have its moments, it never completely gave that complete sense of discovery that the former title did; after all, it's hard to top one of the most revolutionary games of all time. Super Mario Odyssey feels like the proper follow up to Super Mario 64 itself, featuring a new mechanic in the form of Cappy, who doubles as your hat-turned-platform as well as a means to posses enemies. Once "captured", you gain control of their abilities and new traversal options open up within the world. Without giving too much away, there is more to this platformer than just collecting its 3-digit spanning "Moons": Each corner turns a new experience to behold, moments that can only be expressed as pure joy when you play. A definitive Game of the Year.

If you have been a fan since you were 2, or just coming into the Nintendo world, Mario is a classic that will never die! The gameplay is amazingly fun, the graphics are gorgeous and the hours of fun, endless! Collect ALL THE THINGS! You can't go wrong with this game.

LOVE THIS GAME!! If you like Mario then you will want to get this game. It was fun to play and check out all of the new worlds and creations. There is a lot of hidden things and many little mini games and challenges. I highly recommend this game. Cappy is a nice new twist too and the tricks with him are pretty cool. I really like the addition of the old school 2D Mario play during the game as well. That was a pretty cool idea to add. Thought it was funny that even his new clothes/outfits were brought into the 2D. I have not tried the amibo play option yet, but I would expect it to be cool as well. Overall, depending on your skill level I guess, it is a fairly easy game to play and conquer but yet has some nice challenges to it.

When I started playing this game it brought back nostalgia of Mario 64. This is an excellent Mario game with great graphics and some interesting new mechanics with Cappy (which can be used to hti switches, collect coins, take control over other characters, etc).

This is probably my favorite Mario game to date! I was hesitant trying a new game and spending the money, but my friend and I started it and couldn't stop it! What is so cool about it is the open world concept. You can run around and explore so much!! It's great. Only negative thing I will say is that you can't really play multiplayer with this game with two characters like other games. Technically the game lets one player play Mario and the other the hat, but my friend and I couldn't get that to work out very well. We just ended up taking turns which worked out fine. We would play hours at a time until we got to the end. Even when you beat Bowser there's still more fun! Totally worth the money.

A very good game with excellent graphics. My family love this game.

One of the best Mario games to date. Good depth of gameplay and visually interesting environments. Motion controls may take getting used to, but not a real hindrance. Like Breath of the Wild there are tons of ways to explore and Moons (like Korok seeds) to collect.

I'm 51 years old and bought this for my kids. Good luck to them for getting a chance to play it. This is by far the best looking and most fun mario game that I have ever had the pleasure to play. If Zelda didn't make you purchase a switch, Mario definitely should!

This game is one of the best Mario games I have every played! Every world is beautifully crafted and it is fun to explore each world to find every secret. Nintendo has once again outdid themselves. Even after you "beat" the game, there is still so much more to do!

Even though the game is easier than it's previous 3D games, only negative part about it,the game still looks incredible and entertains for hours. I'd recommend collecting the moons needed to get to each level then coming back for more after you complete the game.
