THE loveable ingredients that have elevated the Mario franchise to god-like status are reinvented in the third dimension with the first platforming environment in true 3D.

Here, you can revel in the depth, distance and speed while running, jumping and stomping on enemies throughout the levels, plus make the most of the fan’s favourite Tanooki suit and tail attack.

New enemies include Goombas with tails, tall stacks of Goombas and a Piranha Plant that spits ink to obscure your view.

It’s pure, unadulterated classic gameplay, which still feels fresh.

5/5
