<Previous <( '-' )> Next>

Not my typical comic format this week, but I had to put this pun to paper once it crept into my brain...only now I really want a weird crossover like this.

Super Mario Maker 2 Review



Genre: 2D-Platformer / Creator Game
Players: 1-4
Playtime: 40 Hours (Includes clearing 100% of the Story Mode, trying out each of the various Endless Challenge and Multiplayer course modes, and spending a good deal of time creating / uploading my own levels; See end of review for codes to try out my uploaded levels)


With the massive success that was Super Mario Maker for the Wii-U, its continuation and move to the Nintendo Switch seemed all but inevitable.  What did come as surprise to many though was such was not to be a simple port, but rather a full-fledged sequel.  The game introduces a sleuth of new mechanics, story mode missions, multiplayer and more, but are these shiny new features enough to warrant the title of sequel at the sacrifice of other components?  Let's put on our hard hats and deconstruct the positive and negative building blocks that compose this creative construction zone.


Cucco Attack LET'S PLAY [First Hour] - Wandersong
