If you need to by one game for the system pick this or breath of the wild. They are both absolute masterpieces. I came in with decent expectations and was blown away with how much they were able to fit in the game it really keeps you wanting to play the game again and again. Replay value is great also.

This is my first Mario game since Super Mario 64. I am really enjoying the game! I like how you don't restart a level every time you find a moon. And some moons are very tricky to find, which is great for replayability and longevity. The graphics are great and the controls are relatively smooth.

3D Mario games are always a big deal, and Super Mario Odyssey is no different. Marking the return of the sand-box style found in earlier installments, this game sets the bar higher than ever as you travel to unique and fun worlds. The hook this time is that Mario's cap lets you control enemy creatures, making for some unique abilities. Though it feels a little odd not having the standard power-ups like fire flowers, it all still feels very Mario. The game looks gorgeous, has great sound and music, and will keep you busy for a long time. The story is your standard fare, but there are so many neat things in the game between the worlds you visit, the enemies and their powers, boss fights, and the scale of the game - it truly feels like Nintendo saves their best ideas for 3D Mario. This is a must-own for the Nintendo Switch, right up there with Breath of the Wild.

Fun game! Lots to do and explore! Definitely a classic!

My son loves this game! He made it his goal to find all the secrets. He keeps coming back to this game!

Super Mario Odyssey offers a wide variety of gameplay that should appeal to all types of players. It's a 3D platforming adventure that mixes a lot of the best elements of previous Mario games, such as the exploration from Super Mario 64 and the platforming elements of Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World. The goal of the game is to collect Power Moons, of which there are hundreds hidden in all sorts of places. Some are easy to find while others can be quite challenging, offering something for everyone. The main game can be completed without finding every moon, which means even inexperienced players should be able to beat the game. There are also some extra challenges aimed at more hardcore players, and if one chooses to find all of the moons, the game offers plenty of hours of fun. The controls are easy to pick up, but still offer enough depth to find new ways of getting around a world. Simply moving Mario around can often be fun in itself. The presentation values are also top notch, with colorful graphics and nice music.

This game is a blast from start to finish. The colors, the music, the gameplay... all are great. There are a TON of moons to collect in this game, and while the bare minimum needed to proceed can be collected extremely easily, it's going after those hard-to-find moons that provides the most challenge and fun. Some of them really test your problem solving skills and platforming dexterity. The variety of locations keep things feeling fresh, and the new mechanics provided by the hat are excellent. Both the capture mechanic and new jumping abilities Mario gets from this sidekick add a lot of new potential to the "same old" Mario formula. It never gets old possessing enemies and figuring out how to use their unique abilities to tackle some new environmental puzzle or challenge. There's a lot here to love for all ability levels. It's also great for quick sessions (you can easily get a couple moons in 5-10 minutes to get a sense of accomplishment), or for longer sessions, clearing an entire kingdom in a few hours. Highly recommended for anyone!

I bought this in the past for my older son. He enjoyed it and then sold it at an older age. My younger son now has the switch and I bought it for his birthday. He seems to like it.

Like almost all Mario games, they're great. This one is no different. Odyssey is very fun, and has a lot to do and discover. Definitely has replay value. Not very challenging, but enough to keep you engaged for sure. You need to play this game through at least once if you own a switch.

I bought this for my grandkids because it just happened to be on sale. Oh my.........had I known how much they would love it and how hard it is to get them to turn it off and go to bed, I would gladly have paid double. It's a great game for all ages! (this grandma even plays when they go home ^.~)

Mario Odyssey is AMAZING! It has to be hands-down the best mario games thus far. There is so much to do, and once you complete the main story - It feels like such a big accomplishment. Once you finish the storyline, there is still much more to do. I highly recommend this game to everyone of all ages.

Just finished the main game and beat bowser. I even took my time and grabbed extra stars throughout my journey and I'm still only a third of the way to getting all of them! The scale of this game is amazing and I know i will have a ton of fun searching for all the rest of the stars and coins to collect

Odyssey goes back to the exploration of Mario 64 and Sunshine as opposed to the more linear levels of the more recent 3D Mario games. This isn’t as open as Zelda, but definitely pulls some from it as well. The best Mario game I’ve played in years, and world variety is greater this time around, as well.

This game is full of surprises. I'm not a good platformer gamer, but I really enjoyed the game. I thought the "collecting moon" thing can be repetitive, but it's apparently not. Each puzzle has been quite unique so far. And also, this game really pushes Switch to its limit. The graphics are stunning.

This game really hit the spot for the nostalgia I had playing SM64. This game is the perfect mix of retro and new age mechanics in the Mario Universe. While some of the boss fights are pretty repetitive, the level designs are amazing and incredible fun for hours on end. I cannot wait to play more.

I bought Super Mario Odyssey because my wife always enjoyed Mario games. This one was no different. Conquering all of the different worlds and finding every last power moon was a great experience for us. I honestly enjoyed watching her play the game and only stepping in when she was stuck trying to complete a timed challenge or a series of jumps that she found difficult. This game is not the hardest in the series. You can die(and will die) A LOT - however, there are checkpoints in numerous locations so you never really have to start over(aside from one level WAAAAY at the end). Now if you collect a certain amount of Power Moons you can open additional worlds after you beat the game and these worlds offer a much more difficult experience that will keep those looking for a tougher challenge in toe. Overall a great game, we have beaten the game and the additional worlds(which the last one took me a solid 10 minutes and uses all of your abilities you learn in the game - if you die during this level, you start all over).

My favorite is still Galaxy, but this game is a close second. Large explorable levels give a feeling of openness that hasn’t existed before. Replay ability is very high...being able to keep exploring levels after completing the game. It is new, yet very familiar. If you like Mario, it is a must have.

Super Mario Odyssey is the best 3D Mario since Mario 64. The game offers as little or as much challenge as you would like, catering to both beginners and challenge-lovers. The game looks great, both docked and undocked, and runs like a dream. Don't let this game be missing from your Switch library!

Lots of fun! My cousin recommended this game to me and I haven’t been disappointed.

This was a great gift for my grandson. He always wanted this game.
