Look, at this point, you've probably heard all you need to hear about how great this game is, but here's another vote in support: Mario Odyssey is one of the best games of the past few years, and a must-own for anyone who owns a Nintendo Switch. This game's got it all, from an amazing soundtrack and great art design, to wonderfully fleshed-out worlds and gameplay that grips you by the seat of your pajamas. I love it.

I highly recommend it to any Mario fans as this is, perhaps, the best Mario game I've played so far. In many ways, it reminded me of Super Mario 64 and the joy it feels to explore every new world and see what secrets it has and what it offers. The main difference is that the worlds are much bigger and with far more possibilities due to that new skill of throwing your cap. Not to mention each world has multiple moons to collect (the equivalent of the stars of Super Mario 64). I loved the fact that this game has hours of gameplay: perhaps the main story is short; but there is a lot of additional content and a lot to do post-ending (unlocking new worlds, collecting all the moons, all the purple coins, buying all the items available at all the shops, breaking records for races/challenges, etc - some of which are surprisingly hard). I was playing this game with my partner; and found that not all the times there was a single solution to a puzzle or challenge: he would do things one way and I would do another way and both would work. At times, his method was easier to execute than mine or the other way around; which was actually a fascinating experience. Also, If you've played Mario games from the 8 bit/16 bit era, you'll definitely feel the nostalgia from the old times; as there are multiple moments in the game where there are throwbacks to these previous games. Finally, I can say that this game offers a very pleasant and solid platforming experience which I totally recommend to Mario fans and first-timers to Mario/platforming games.

I had heard this supposed to be a very good Mario game. Let me tell you, it's exceeded those high expectations! Everything about this game is top notch. Gameplay, graphics, storyline are all outstanding. I was hesitant to buy this game because I thought the kids wouldn't have much interest in it....but they've been playing it non-stop.

From the moment I started the game I have been hooked! The game control is smooth and you are provided with a variety of ways to play. I have large hands and normally prefer the Pro Controller, but have found the joy con option very easy to use as they provide unique "moves" for Mario when used. I am only a few worlds in since finding as many moons and coins as possible is always a goal of mine. Amazing job Nintendo!

Even after beating the game multiple times, the exploration, the collecting, the music, the adventure, it all keeps him coming back. I loved watching my son learn to perform more and more complex maneuvers and find hidden collectibles. A classic, unforgettable Mario adventure.

The latest Super Mario game on the latest Nintendo console! This is another great installment in the Nintendo poster boys MASSIVE array of appearances in the gaming world and mixes a fresh take on gameplay mechanics with a bit of nostalgia for those core Nintendo players from day one Mario Bros. so long ago! A 10/10 in my book for its innovative approach to Mario even though the story leaves something to be desired.
