Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

It's a good game for the kids and it's easy to play and you could have fun

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 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..

An excellent open world Mario game with appealing gameplay. Definitely a must play.

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!

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.

My son loves this game it is great to have mario in a open world style of play

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.

The graphics on this game are amazing. My sons favorite game! Bought this as a gift for family friends. My son got this at 5 years old and after almost 2 years, conquered it. He still loves to play and find new quests and boundaries to explore.

It's been a long time since Nintendo has released a Mario game that emphasized exploration over linear challenge courses. Mario Galaxy was a fantastic game but fell short in that regard. Mario Odyssey on the other hand nails the sandbox exploration gameplay perfectly. There's always something new to discover around the corner. The controls are tight and responsive, and you can ignore the less precise motion controls for the most part. Visually the game looks stunning, though a few of the worlds emphasize realism over Mario's signature cartoon aesthetic which I feel hinders the overall cohesion of the art style which could have been even more outstanding if it didn't feel like you had somehow took a wrong turn and wandered into a different game. But perhaps that's the point? Regardless, this is probably one of the best games Nintendo has ever made. No nickle and dime microtransactions or season passes or loot boxes. Just a game that wants to take you on an adventure and have a good time.

I heard this is a really great 3D Mario game so I got it for my nephew, I hope he likes it

Re-purchased this for my Switch 2. Easily the greatest 3D Mario game. Switch 2 picture and framerate improvements really boost the experience and make a 5 star game easily 6 stars!

Another yet awesome purchase. Highly recommend buying this product.

This game is what most fans of 3D mario wanted, this game is very entertaining to play through and there are some areas where its very tough (optional) it can get a bit repetitive but thats after you beat the game and try to go for every single moon, the whole story mode is a blast to go through

This has all the features of a great Mario game. It has the exploration and collection features of a great Zelda game with the nostalgia of original Mario (NES) and Mario 64, but this is a new and great Mario experience. I've put in about 30 hours so far. One of the single greatest games I've ever played.
