In my opinion, this is the best Mario game of all time. My 11 year old son says it just is the best game he has ever played. I’ve had them all and there has been many great ones over the many years since Mario first appeared on the NES. The release of this game makes owning a Switch even more worthwhile than it already was.

Every time Nintendo releases a Mario themed game, they do it right. I've been playing these since Donkey Kong where he was introduced as "Jumpman". This game is extremely enjoyable with the right amount of challenge to keep me coming back everyday for more play!

Nintendo has really outdone themselves here, creating a platforming experience that feels like a seamless combination of the open environments of Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine and the tight, focused level design of Mario Galaxy. Movement is accessible yet complex, and there's plenty of content here to keep you coming back for more. My only gripe is the motion controls. Most of them have a button input, but some, such as throwing your hat upwards, have no alternative, and a lot of the time if I try doing a motion input, there's a delay or the game misreads it as a different gesture. Even for the motion controls that do function properly, it's difficult for me to do them while playing the game in handheld mode.

Game is very vibrant and graphics are phenomenal. Mario Odyssey is easy to learn but requires skill to master. Really like the puzzle aspects of the gameplay, keeps you thinking. Large unique worlds and secret places to discover. Never boring each level keeps you on your toes.

Very fun game. I bought for my daughter for Christmas. She loves the game. I also play it. If you are a Mario fan this is a must have. Gives mario 64 vibes but much better and love how they added part that are original mario brothers (2D) into the game.

Mario Odyssey is a perfect addition to the mario collection. It's an evolution to the series and draws on the gameplay mechanics of Mario 3D world and Mario Galaxy. The graphics is gorgeous and looks great in handheld mode too. The controls are tight and responsive. Highly recommend to any gamers and especially Mario fans!

As creative as Mario Galaxy was, I love the gameplay mechanics of this new adventure. I've always loved Mega Man for the ability to acquire your enemies' weapons, and Odyssey takes that to another level. If you know nothing about this game, your hat gives you the ability to become several of the enemies in the game, as well as objects in the environments. This means that the gameplay is constantly changing as you discover all of the many transformations available to you. Discovering each one is necessary to discover the hundreds of moons located throughout the 16 worlds that you can travel between. Collecting some moons are necessary to finish the story, but the rest get you exploring every inch of the maps. They're not just scattered about like most collectibles in games, but most are hidden behind specific tasks that must be completed or secret locations that must be discovered. Just when you think you've found them all in a level and there can't possibly be anymore, you can check a list that shows there are still twenty left to find. Everything about this game is clever, and the gameplay does not get stale.

My son received this item for xmas and loves it. he is a gamer and his first love is mario but playing xbox online with his friends consumes most of his gaming time. despite that he has made his way back to the switch to play this game more and more. as a parent i appreciate a family friendly game with levels and goals.

Pure Mario fun, lots of creative levels. Kids and adults can enjoy this great game. The levels get harder as the game progresses. Having a Peach and Mario amiibo makes the game easier. The Luigi's Ballon Chase game that you unlock after beating the first part of the game is a great addition to an already great game.

I haven't played a 3D Mario game at all, so this was my first entry into the series since I've been playing more Nintendo since the Switch's launch. It allows you to solve the puzzles your own way and it is easily playable for hours or small amounts of time. It's extremely fun, challenging, and the art direction is great.

So much to do in this game. So many different ways to play it. You can't type it all out without saying, "If you own a Nintendo Switch you MUST OWN THIS GAME!". From the very start of the game the controls are amazing. The story grabs you in right away. The game play is reminiscent of Mario 64. 10 Purple coins out of 10!

I've always been a huge fan of Mario and Nintendo in general, and this time is no different! Nintendo really knocked it outta the park, with a sandbox style Mario game with amazing graphics, portability, and tons to do, paying homage to both old school 2D mario, as well as all the 3D titles. Worth getting a switch for :)

I was hesitant to get this game, because I am a huge lover of the original Super Nintendo Super Mario. I purchased this for my husband initially, but ended up loving it. It has so many aspects of freeplay while still providing goals and objectives similar to super Mario!

Bought for my son so he could have his own copy. Phenomenal game. I had already had it from year's ago. Super fun,great graphics and smooth gameplay. Probably my favorite 3d mario aside from 3d world and galaxy. A must play.
