With it being 7 years since the last sandbox style game, Super Mario Odyssey just leaves me wanting more. This game brings back those genres and it does not disappoint. There are MANY ways to get most of the power moons, and there are A LOT of moons.Impact on the series: 10/10 Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 are fan favorites for being an open, sandbox-like game with a lot to do.

The maps may be average-sized, but they seem HUGE. You can breeze through the game, collecting just the amount of moons needed to progress through each kingdom (120 minimum are needed to complete the game, taking about 1-5 hours), or you can 100% the game, try to beat you record on one of the many challenges in this game, or simply take your time with it (about 45-72, 2-12, 15-25 hours respectively)Exploration: 15/15 Out of 15 cause this is one of the main components of the game. The new bosses and enemies are also really unique and all have a different way to be beaten.Graphics: 5/5 Graphics aren't everything, but this game has amazing graphics.Length: 5/5 Again, the game is as long as you want it to be. From skeletons with hats to forks to humans, this game has many unique NPCs. There are several easy moons but MANY more harder ones.NPCs: 10/10 Really creative. This game is easy if you want, and hard if you want. You may want to replay using certain challenges, to fins more moons, to speedrun the game, try out different options etc.Difficulty: 10/10 'The game is too easy' Yeah sure I want to see you attempt the Volleyball Challenge for 100 and the Final Level in the game. However, if you 100%ed the game on your first run, it could remove some of it.

This is shown well in many of the unique boss fights in certain kingdoms.Replayability: 10/10 Amazing replayability. With the capture ability you have many options for fighting. When you enter a 2D level, the 8-bit Remixes are just as good.Battle System: 5/5 Lowered to 5 because it's simple but not confusing at all. The game is linear if you want to just progress, but it seems huge despite the average sized maps if you are going to 100% or at least at your own pace.Music: 10/10 Songs like Cascade Kingdom, Jump up Superstar, Wooded Kingdom, (Trying to avoid spoilers) Second to last Kingdom, and the ending song are just a few of the many good songs in this game.

Just don't go in expecting the most complex story ever.Level Design: 15/15 One of the major parts of the game. Not too confusing, based on the end alone you most likely won't be disappointed. Okay this a review system I am trying out.Story: 4/5 This game wasn't meant to be huge on story, so I am going to lower the score to outOkay this a review system I am trying out.Story: 4/5 This game wasn't meant to be huge on story, so I am going to lower the score to out of 5 for story specifically.
