◆ 2D Mario and 3D Mario's good marvelous Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario SeriesSpeaking of today,You can also play on smartphoneA popular action game that came to be. Broadly speaking, there are two types of 2D actions: side scrolling starting with "Super Mario Bros." and 3D action starting from "Super Mario 64". The Super Mario Odyssey that appeared in the Nintendo Switch is which Mario is basically a 3D Mario, but a 2D Mario-like element is a skillfully integrated piece of work that was skillfully incorporated into the game It is getting.

Super Mario Odyssey 's basic screen looks something like this, flying around the world in 3D Mario and adventure.


And if the person who has played the Super Mario series once, the point that you surely feel will be the operation feeling that you can not stop thinking "It's usual operation". Of course, fine operability and arrangement of buttons are different, but the Super Mario Odyssey's "feeling of running" or "feeling of 3 jumps or long jumps", etc., is a combination of 3D Mario such as "Super Mario 64" With the same feeling, if you have played once, "Oh yeah, Mario will feel like this".


With such usual operation, we stroll along the modern city like a salaried worker ......


It is Super Mario Odyssey that you can enjoy a nonbili vacation at the beach.


Also, if you go to the snow country the body and screen of Mario freezes to tick ... ...


When going to the side of the waterfall, the screen begins to get wet with a splash of water as shown below, and at the same time the HD vibration of Joy-Con vibrates to "realize that the waterfall is near", so the player himself and Mario I feel like I'm adventuring in various places. This is the part that can be expressed because it is the latest game machine Nintendo Switch.


Besides such a latest game-like element, it is a green clay pot that I have seen somewhere that I can meet in various parts of the world.


Entering into this, Mario will become an 8-bit 2D mario of old fashioned old days. It is very fresh thought that it is supposed to have played 3D Mario but it becomes 2D Mario of fluent. Operation when entering the clay pipe remains "Super Mario Bros." It is a simple action of "dash" and "jump" only. So, if you have played Mario in the past, you can not stop feeling nostalgic.


Still, it is the three-dimensional world of Super Mario Odyssey that 2D Mario adventures. So, even though it is 2D Mario, you can also experience a magical feeling of 3D.


In addition, even when you are adventurous in 3D Mario, there is a stage that progresses with side scrolling, which makes you think that "Do you encounter with some work of 2D Mario?" In the stage. For example, in the case of the stage below, I will move in the direction of the red arrow, but if I fix the camera I feel like I'm playing 2D side scrolling Mario though it is 3D Mario. Many 2.5D Mario stage like this is prepared, it is 3D in normal time, 2D when putting in a clay pipe, 2.5D depending on the stage, so you can enjoy various Mario anyway so you can be impressed honestly .


For the latest game, the action is also very simple, so even people who say "play the game after a long time" could easily play. The feeling that anyone can easily play easily is like Mario.

◆ You can enjoy various degrees of difficulty depending on the skill of the player
There are few action buttons and operation methods are simple, but it is not equal "overall difficulty of the game is low." Although it is not always required, it is also possible to perform more complicated actions with sophisticated manipulation, thereby deciding "startling actions that can not be thought of in ordinary people" and "actions that are too complicated to reproduce" I can.

A good example of "You can enjoy the difficulty level according to the player" is listed in the following tweets. People who want to enjoy high difficulty skillfully fly around a small scaffold, beginners move only when all the scaffolding appears, such as "small scaffolds" are always prepared on the ups and downs scaffolding The player can freely choose the degree of difficulty that matches.


Also, if you can skillfully manipulate and have excellent observation eyes, you can also find a surprise that you can follow "a different route from usual ..." ... you can go ... ...?


What is happening anymore ... a series of speedy actions at the level of ......


You can get this moon even if you can not superplay, but it seems like you can go with this route as well.

If you think, some people struggle in scenes with insufficient difficulty.


Beginners can also make the story full of crisp, but various levels of difficulty are prepared so that the game professional can also enjoy it. Depending on how you play, players can also play games with difficulty that matches their skills, so it is a game that everyone can enjoy from just a beginner to an experienced person.

◆ "Capture" of the new action is too fun
