Super Mario Odyssey is a fun, action-packed open world adventure which is great for the whole family. I'd always be finding myself so filled with wonder and awe at how beautiful and detailed the worlds and environments are.

It’s the relentlessly brilliant variety that elevates Odyssey above and beyond any recent platformer you can care to mention, and a fair few other Mario games as well. Racing towards a distant flagpole is all very well, but this feels like a proper 3D affair in the same way that Super Mario 64 did two decades ago. Only now you can play it wherever you please thanks to the Switch’s portable charms. So yeah, Super Mario Odyssey is an incomprehensibly fun video game. One that’s big and silly and totally essential if you’ve already got a Switch sitting at home. Not only does it show off what Nintendo’s new console is capable of, but it reminds you why Mario has endured for so long now: roaming free with the fella around the vast new kingdoms just feels great. Not yet indulged in a Switch? Odyssey is good enough to have you reconsider. I mean... Mario as a T. rex: what more excuse do you need?

You don't have to be a past fan of the mario franchise to enjoy this masterpiece. It has an easy to follow control mechanism which when mastered makes for some acrobatic mechanics that flow smoothly. There is the tragic yet comedic storyline between Mario, Peach and Bowser and there is tonnes of exploring to do post-game as well as during the main missions. It is game of the year material.

Super Mario 64 was one of the first games that I truly got into growing up. It taught me a sense of discovery and I've no doubt put in 100s of hours into the game over the years and still manage to discover things that I've never seen before.

There was something magical that happened to me during my time with Super Mario Odyssey that is hard to put into words. As I journeyed across the planet to the different kingdoms that were filled with secrets to uncover, creatures and objects to possess with Cappy, my magical hat, and of course the...
