Up to four players can be on-screen vying to beat a level. It is a perfect blend of co-op and competitive. The character collection comes into play in the game’s zany, and fun multiplayer mode. Some of the levels definitely intend for the player to switch to one of the three other characters to obtain those coveted green stars. If you have ever played Super Mario Bros. Players can play through any of the levels as Mario, Luigi, Peach or Toad. I mentioned that the game is not a solo adventure for the red hatted plumber. I don’t mind the challenge, but the game really had a steep difficulty curve in the latter portion. By the end of the game I only had six lives remaining. The kind of difficulty that will have Mario vets ready to throw their GamePads. Worlds 7 and 8 turned the difficulty up, big time. I collected a whopping 36 extra lives during that time. Worlds 1-5 and really most of World 6 was a breeze. I want to mention one of minor issues I had with game. I also enjoy the game’s boomerang suit which turns you into a boomerang throwing machine. The cat attack easily dispatches enemies and is funny to watch. As far as I can remember this is the first time Mario has had the ability to perform a physical melee type attack. In the cat suit, Mario or his team can climb up walls to reach hidden areas or green stars, and also attack enemies. Super Mario 3D World introduces a fantastic power-up. Many of the latest Mario adventures have introduced a new gameplay mechanic in the form of new power-up suits for Mario to utilize. Not quite as challenging as the one’s from Super Mario Bros. Also, if you’ve missed the train themed levels of Super Mario Bros. These levels are a change of pace and are a blast. Plessie’s levels are water themed as she (I think she’s a she) can glide over rivers collecting coins. Seriously folks, Mario rides a giant dinosaur not named Yoshi. There are some levels that have you riding on the back of a giant dinosaur named Plessie. This game does feature those environments but doesn’t get tied down to them.
Many Mario titles follow the same formula of a desert world, a water world, or a basic grassy world. Early on it’s easy to collect them, but later the difficulty ramps up (we’ll get to that). To advance to the game’s boss fights players must have a certain number of green stars. Some of these are easy to grab, but others provide a challenge. Most levels have three stars hidden throughout. All levels feature green stars (no gold here) for the player to collect. Instead of the player being on “rails” so to speak, you can travel to any portion of the world at any point. 3 in that players travel from level to level throughout one of eight different worlds. The game plays out similar to Super Mario Bros. The game’s level design is also top notch. When Mario or his team run for an extended amount of time a white smoke trail follows them. Each detail was well thought out by Shigeru Miyamoto’s team. When Mario pops a Goomba the poof that remains is perfect. The game’s worlds vary from sunny beaches to the usual inclusion of a haunted house. The lighting is superb in each world as well. The shadowing on Mario and the wide variety of enemies is well done. The game features wonderfully detailed worlds that each have distinct details. The great thing about a Mario title is that the game doesn’t have to be Battlefield 4 or Assassins Creed IV. The Wii U is known as the lightweight of the “Next-Gen” console group when it comes to graphics. Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad are left to save the day.Įnough about the plot, let’s get to the good stuff. In Super Mario 3D World, the player watches as a group of fairies are captured by Bowser. The formula for almost any Mario game is Princess Peach gets kidnapped by Bowser, Mario has to save her. Super Mario 3D World does have a plot that caught me off guard. Nintendo surprised me with yet another classic platformer that gamers will want to come back and play again and again. After playing Nintendo’s latest Mario adventure on Wii U, Super Mario 3D World, I still can’t get enough. (WHNT) – I’ve played dozens of titles starring everyone’s favorite plumber, Mario.
