Minimum level of execution on the controller required
The more players evolve in the adventure, the more difficult the progression will be. For neophytes, it takes a little time to measure on which platforms it can jump and land.
Principle of the game
Mario, Luigi, Toad, Rosalina and Peach will deliver the fairy captured by the dragon Bowser. They will travel more than 80 levels in 2 dimensions by jumping from platform to platform. Many enemies, obstacles and objects will find themselves in their path. Sometimes certain powers will allow them to climb the wall or throw fireballs.
Local game modes
Super Mario 3D World mode:
Browse the levels of the main adventure.
Players lose and have to start the whole level or the last checkpoint again, if everyone is in a bubble. In solo, if the player loses, he starts again at the last checkpoint or at the beginning of the level.
From 1 to 4 players.
Bowser’s Fury mode
A one-player adventure, in which Mario is played in a 3-dimensional adventure to calm Bowser’s fury.
For one player.
Online gaming modes
Requires a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to access it.
You can play Super Mario 3D World with strangers or friends on the Internet to form a team of 2 to 4 players. It is also possible to play 2 on the same console and join strangers or friends on the Internet, in order to complete the team levels.
Conclusion
Super Mario 3D World – Bowser’s Fury is a great game, suitable for the whole family. It is of course more appropriate to guide and explain to the children the mechanics of the game. But otherwise they will learn and discover for themselves without any problems.
Note that if you have already made this game on Nintendo’s previous console, the Wii U, it is not necessarily useful to buy this version. The real addition is the new Bowser’s Fury game that is included and lasts about 5 hours, or otherwise the online co-operation mode of Super Mario 3D World.
