Mario is an undisputed icon of the entertainment industry. Everyone knows the Italian plumber in the red overalls. Nintendo never let him retire, and the latest installment, Super Mario Odyssey released October last year, became a real wonder.

In the ancient times of video games, i.e. the turn of the 80s s Mario games, like most of the contemporary productions, were set in 2D. We moved from left to right, avoiding obstacles, traps, and monsters. Super Mario Odyssey gives up 2D, in favor of a beautiful, 3D world that was divided into all kinds of kingdoms.

Thus, our plumber traverses other realms, and moving between them is possible thanks to the Odyssey ship. The game is focused on two elements: platformer stages that will test your coordination and agility, and exploration, where you can find collectables in inaccessible places. What sets this game apart, though, and why it has been called a masterpiece, is the absolutely flawless difficulty balance, which can be tailored to the skills of any player.

People raised on Nintendo games will be able to find all the secrets – and find quite a lot of them. However, even children will be able to complete the game without any temper tantrums. The special Assist Mode can help. It is dedicated to the youngest players, people who haven't previously had a chance to meet the mustached Mario – it makes things a lot easier, showing you the exact path you need to follow, or increasing the error margin.

Super Mario Odyssey is a game for everyone – it doesn't matter if you've ever played a video game or not, if you're fifty or seven years old, a king or a beggar! With the latest release of Nintendo, every player will feel just fine and find what they expect – great entertainment, a wide smile on your face and a lot of endorphins released in an instant.
