Super Mario Bros. Surprise: A Review of Nintendo’s Newest Side-Scrolling Adventure

2023-10-16 16:01:11

Nintendo’s Uncle Mario is back again. Following the “New Super Mario Bros. U” many years ago, a side-scrolling game that pays tribute to the early 2D Mario is now available. Invited by Nintendo of Taiwan, 4Gamers is also the first to experience it this time. Now that I have heard about this work with Nintendo’s signature characters, let’s talk about my impressions of this work. Bowser targeted the Flower Kingdom and did not kidnap the princess this time. However, the evil Bowser invaded the Flower Kingdom and took away the symbol of the Marvel Flower. He even merged him directly with the castle. Mario and his team had to travel around the Flower Kingdom. Find the surprise seeds to defeat Bowser and restore peace to the Flower Kingdom. The “Flower Kingdom” as the stage has 6 worlds and the Flower Islands in the center, a total of 7 areas. This time you can freely move around the map to select levels, but in the trial version, some levels will require collecting fixed surprise seeds before they can be opened. Therefore, it can be roughly inferred that the game process is that the order of conquering the small levels is decided by the player, but enough seeds need to be collected to advance to the next large area. Sure enough, the content of the surprise level is the same as in the previous promotional video and the video we shot this time. The biggest focus of this level is the “surprise flower”. After getting the surprise flower, the gameplay of the level will be greatly changed for a period of time. It will make you play more easily. Some places can only be reached through the changes caused by the surprise flower, but some levels are not safe. After getting the surprise flower, you must quickly avoid the incoming danger. Although the effect of the Surprise Flower is fixed in each level, for this new level that I played for the first time, I am really looking forward to what effect the Surprise Flower will have in this level. In terms of level expectations, it is higher than in the past. higher. In addition to the surprise flowers, you also need to collect enough surprise seeds. The seeds this time are similar to the stars, moons and other collection elements in the past. In some levels, you have to search carefully to get all the surprise seeds. There are 12 playable characters. This time, “Super Mario Bros. Amazing” has 12 playable characters, including Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, who was always kidnapped by Bowser in the past, and another There is Princess Daisy, and the Tonobio clan, but most of the characters operate exactly the same. The more special ones are the Yoshi clan and the Lepus. Yoshi and Lepus have a common feature, that is, they will not lose life when they encounter enemies, and they will also have a short period of invincibility. They will only lose life when they fall off the screen. The price is that they cannot use props such as mushrooms and fire flowers, but when there are multiple players, the props they eat can be placed in the temporary storage space for teammates to use. There are actually subtle differences between the two characters. Yoshi has many special abilities that ordinary characters do not have, including the ability to ride, spit out after swallowing, and float briefly after jumping, etc. In multiplayer mode, the player who controls Yoshi is crucial, because he can use his ability to stay in the air to help other characters explore higher places, and can even carry another player to “lie down” to pass the level without being injured. The tongue that can actively attack is also very suitable for being the pioneer in taking the lead. But at the same time, Yoshi can also be the most shocking one. For example, after eating a slow turtle, the turtle shell he spits out can penetrate three times and cause damage to other people in our party, or he can carry people out of the screen, etc. It’s up to the player to decide what kind of Yoshi they want to play. On the other hand, Lepus has no special abilities other than not being injured. Therefore, for younger players or people who rarely play games, Lepus may be the best choice when playing together. New Badges and Props Although most characters only differ in appearance, this time you can install a “badge” to gain a special ability. Badges can be obtained by breaking through the badge challenge level. The level itself will have many mechanisms for you to learn how to use this badge. Some of them can really help you pass the level, such as wall climbing and hat parachuting. Some are more passive abilities. Like sucking gold coins. If you are really stuck in some places, don’t forget to choose a suitable badge. It may be of great help. In addition to the traditional mushrooms and invincible stars, there are also several more creative transformation props this time, such as the “elephant fruit” that can transform into an elephant, spray water to water flowers, and sneak into the ground (but “Drill Mushroom” that cannot turn), “Bubble Flower” that wraps enemies in bubbles, etc. Some props also have the ability to poke teammates. For example, the elephant fruit can push a single water pipe, so it can directly squeeze teammates to death. Props can be stored in the spare slot and exchanged with existing props. You can imagine that there will be many secret places in the level that need to be entered using these props. Finally, multiplayer is more fun. This time “Super Mario Bros. Surprise” supports offline four-player play, or online eight-player play. As mentioned before, we can help each other this time. Even if someone is killed, they can be revived by touching the other party’s ghost within 5 seconds. But this time there are also more ways to mine each other. These mechanisms are not just for fun, but are cleverly integrated into the game with very reasonable angles and settings. From the perspective of whether you can buy it or not, it is still scary to play only the trial version of many games today, thinking that it may be ruined later. However, after playing “Super Mario Bros. Amazing”, you can After playing the demo version, the editor can have unlimited imagination about the subsequent levels. This really comes from Nintendo’s ability to show the fun of the game that no one can match. However, although it can be played by one person, this game is actually more recommended for multiplayer play, especially offline. If you can play it with your family or friends, you will definitely have many famous scenes that will make you laugh out loud. By the way, this time Huahua can speak, and they can also speak Chinese, and it is a pure Taiwanese dubbing. Players should not forget to listen to this Taiwanese dubbing when playing. It still gives a sense of freshness in Mario’s world. . Super Mario Bros. Surprise will be released exclusively on Nintendo Switch on October 20.
