It is a fun, unique style of Mario game that is needed on the Nintendo Switch. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury makes a great addition to Switch’s Mario library. That side of the game has a solid 4-5 extra hours of content, and that is without trying to complete it at 100%. 4 Stars: Get all of the Green Stars in the game’s first 11 Worlds. 3 Stars: Complete World Star, World Mushroom and World Flower. 2 Stars: Collect all of the Green Stars in the first eight Worlds. It’s OK if you used the secret warp pipes. In this side of the game, you have to use Cat Shines to activate the Giga Bells that can stop Fury Bowser alter-ego. 1 Star: Beat Super Mario 3D World up to World 8. This led to some conflicts while choosing characters.Įven though this was my first playthrough, the additional content of Bowser’s Fury was still welcome. For example, Toad is fast, but his jumps are week. The fact that the characters move differently as well is weird. For example, if the shared pool of lives run out, you are done. I do suggest sticking to local play because one player’s bad connection can ruin the experience for everyone.Īnother problem that we faced in multiplayer mode is that it simply does not work for some levels. The cool thing is that you can play on different switches Locally or online. Up to four players can choose to play as a different character and roam around the levels together. Unlike older 2D Mario platformers, Super Mario 3D World tries to introduce a new mechanic or a new scenario or power-up in each level so that each level is exciting.Īnother exciting thing about the game is that it can be played in multiplayer mode. Super Mario 3D World is a brave release as it strives, without any hint of apology, to hit on a formula to satisfy the majority of 2D platforming fans and the smaller but still sizeable. Each level is unique and feels different to the one before it. The game encourages you to go back and play the levels again to collect all the stars and a stamp that can be found in one of the level corners. You also have a world map where you can jump between different levels. The end is indicated by the famous flagpole.
While it looks like you can free roam and you can go in any direction, the levels are very structured with a clear beginning and an end. The gameplay of Super Mario 3D World is very unique in the sense that it is technically a linear platformer disguised as a 3D game. Bowser then kidnaps the fairy in front of them, so they decide to jump through the pipe themselves to help. Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad find out about this from a fairy that pops out of a transparent pipe outside of Peach’s castle and tells them. This time, Bowser is kidnapping these little fairies called “Sprixies” and is terrorising their Sprixie Kingdome. Yes, Bowser is still the big bad of the game, but for a change, he did not kidnap Peach. The story of the game is a little different this time. I personally never owned a Wii U, so I was very excited to play this game for the first time on the Switch. Finally, in February, and as a part of Mario’s 35th-anniversary special, Nintendo released Super Mario 3D World with additional levels that they called “Bowser’s Fury”. Last year, we got a tiny taste with Mario Maker 2’s 3D levels. After all, the game was the Wii U’s second best-seller after Mario Kart 8.
