Super Mario Odyssey review: controlling a sentient hat has never been so fun

Review: Super Mario Odyssey
Mario has never been slicker to control ... it can become a thing of pure joy just to hurtle Mario around levels exploring and finding power moons at your own pace It is fair to say that the Nintendo Switch's first seven months have been better than anyone expected.- It's classic Mario
- Mario's never controlled better
- Beautiful worlds
- Incredible title song
- A genuinely great game
- Doesn't live up to previous Mario greats
- Some open world aspects don't work as well as they should
- Boring story
- even for a Mario game
- Too easy to reach the credits
- Missing that Nintendo magic and soul

Super Mario Odyssey is easily one of the best games on the Nintendo Switch. It's every bit as visually and technically impressive as Breath of the Wild, and as revolutionary in terms of adding new concepts and mechanics to a well-established series.- Fun, varied gameplay
- Many kingdoms to explore and challenges to beat
- Capture mechanic adds exciting problem-solving elements
- Costumes and Snapshot mode are a blast
- Very limited multiplayer
Shoot for the moon.

It surprises you with not just inventive mechanics, of which there are many, but with expertly tuned level design and moments of charismatic wit.- A large game where nearly every landmark is put to good use
- Extensive variety of platforming challenges and puzzles
- Capture ability turns almost every enemy into an opportunity
- and greatly expands Mario's skillset
- Dozens of new outfits let you customize Mario to suit your mood
- Strange...
- Some of Cappy's minor actions require the use of motion controls
Super Mario Odyssey review
It's extraordinary, really, that after all this time a new Mario game can feel as fresh as any that preceded it. Cappy is a revelation, exploring Kingdoms is bliss, and Super Mario Odyssey is a masterpiece.- The result of capturing something surprises throughout
- Mario's fluid movement
- Kingdom layouts are exceptional
- Exploration is constantly rewarded
Super Mario Odyssey puts Mario back on top
Super Mario Odyssey is both the first proper Mario game on Switch (and no, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe doesn't count) and Nintendo's first fully 3D Mario adventure game since Super Mario Galaxy 2 on the Wii.- Absolutely gorgeous to look at and glorious to play, So
