The first true 3D Mario that has redefined itself since the Galaxy series was released. Mario is the king and he’s back with a game that is sure to be held in the hearts of gamers all over. It’s hard to play and not smile at the same time, unless you’re subjecting yourself to the game’s tougher challenges which will undoubtedly make you question your gluttony for punishment. Kids will love the bright colors and whimsical setting while older gamers will be attracted to that special blend of heart and soul only Nintendo games are known for. If you are a part of the surging population of people buying a Switch then you owe it to yourself to own this game. There is no question Mario Odyssey belongs in every Switch owner’s library and will likely be the bar for all 3D Mario games to meet going forward.

Bought this game for our 5 year old. He’s been watching friends play and asked for it for Christmas from Santa. Very easy for him to play and great graphics. He enjoys it and I enjoy watching him play!

Mario Odyssey feels like a sequel to Mario 64, it explores many different worlds with tons of hidden things to find and the controls feel very tight. If you have a switch you should pick this up it is one of the best games in years.

The different worlds are beautiful and imaginative. Many things to collect- you can easily sink 50hrs into this game. I love the open world for Mario. The costumes are great and are fun to dress in.

I do really enjoy the 3D Mario adventures and so far this one has been great. The learning curve is low and the controls are easy to master. The visuals are good and so far the story has been entertaining. A must for a Switch owner.

I’ve never experienced an open Mario game before so this was totally cool I do say it might be just a tad hard for non gamers like me or for better terms beginner gamers.

Being a gamer who grew up with the evolution of video games, Super Mario Odyssey rekindles the feelings of wonderment I got when playing Super Mario 64 back in the 90's. You're thrown into the action after a brief opening movie, and from there, you get the basic grasp of gameplay pretty quickly: run around the environment collecting Power Moons for your damaged airship. But throughout the game, you constantly make new discoveries as to Mario's abilities, how to find Power Moons, how to obtain Power Moons, and how to get around the game world. Every time I go to a new area, I see something that makes me smile and say, "That's clever!"
Plain and simple, this is one of the best games available on modern video game systems, and one that will surely go down as one of the best of all time.

Very fun but easy Mario game. Buy this if you like to explore in an open game. From becoming a T-rex, a fish under water, to bullet bill, there are lots of fresh new things to do. I even have fun playing with 2 players as cappy.

Yes, it’s true Nintendo has done it again by keeping this ageless Mario vs Bowser-rescue the princess theme alive and strong. In this version you’ll use ALL the features of your new switch, plus the added twist of a 2nd player joining you as Mario’s hat or (alternate item) At first glance it sounds silly, right? Think again, it’s ingenious how much a 2nd player can help you take advantage of levels to achieve mission success. Also, allowing you to reach hidden items you never could reach on your own. The story mode was easy to defeat, approximately 8-10 hours total. Nintendo compensated for this by adding addicting challenges and items to find as you revisit all the Oddesey Worlds you’ve unlocked. This is a must have game for any gamer, and fan of this never dying franchise. Happy gaming!

If you ever been a fan of the Great Mario games, you would really like this game! There is just so much to do just think of Mario 64 and all the stuff you could do in that and times that by a insane amount and that’s were your at!

We love this game! It has amazing graphics and the story line is great. I absolutely love the new feature where you throw his hat and become the other characters it just makes for hours of fun for kids and adults alike.

Nintendo does it again with Mario. This game delivers on that sense of wonder that video games sometimes lack. It’s very colorful, musically inspired and controls perfectly. I highly recommend it as a must for switch owners.

This is an incredible game for all ages. There’s enough wonder to appeal to both kids and adults, and it’s not too difficult either. My 5 year old nephew managed to beat the game. If you have a Switch, you need to own this game.

This was purchased as a gift. After all this time it's still played. It has a ton of replay value. It's been passed though the kids from cousin to cousin. We had to buy another so they all play.
I want to play!!!

Seeing as how Breath of the Wild was also released on the Wii U, I consider Mario Odyssey to be the first killer app, must-have title in the Switch's library. This game gives me all the warm tingly feelings that I felt playing Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine and changes things up a bit by making each world more free flowing and having somewhere in the range of 1000 Power Moons to collect (and growing with each update!) Some of the levels are a bit small but they are all unique and memorable. Also you can dress up Mario however you like in a ton of fun costumes, though none really offer new abilities... That being said this is a wonderful game to play for adults and kids alike and you should add it to your library if you don't have it already!

Mario odyssey is the switches answer to Mario 64, sunshine, galaxy and galaxy 2. Not just a collect a thon. Gameplay is very deep and rewarding every time you play it. Plus there’s plenty after you beat story mode

This has got to be one of the best Mario games ever made. The main story line took approx 12 hours to complete. However, the additional challenges and difficulty of the post story line are even better! Would highly recommend it!

This game is worth every penny. I’ve only play this game for 1 day so far and it is my favorite Mario game I’ve ever played. It is a masterpiece just like Mario 64 (Nintendo 64) and Mario galaxy (wii). The storyline behind this game is your typical Mario game (save peach from bowser) but the amount of thought and creativity is great. I’m hoping they are able to come out with and other Mario game for the switch that is as good as this, but based on past games, there has only been 1 masterpiece Mario game for each console. If you are on the fence about this game, just get it…you won’t regret it!

This game is great for both new players and experienced mario fans. The game can be difficult depending on how you choose to play it. The main storyline is fairly easy however there is a lot to do after finishing the main game.
