Great, but not perfect – Super Mario Run Review

I love the game, it’s fun and entertaining. I don’t regret spending $10 on the game. There are so many other things you can do than just completing all six worlds. However, I do think there’s a lot of room for improvement. To start, some characters and buildings require way too many toads. You won’t always win the Toad Rally, and if you lose, you lose toads. Pointless things require so many toads that it can take you months to collect them all, and that’s if you’re a good player. Some things let you expand your kingdom, so I guess it’s okay. But some characters are way too much. For example, Toadette. She requires 200 red, blue, yellow, green, and purple toads. That’s a lot. Purple toads, in my opinion, are the hardest to get in large amounts, so it can take quite a while. Characters usually have special abilities. Let’s take Toadette as an example again. She doesn’t have an ability in Remix 10 or Word Tour. She only has it in Toad Rally, and that’s to steal some toads from your rival at the end, increasing your chances of winning. At some times, it’s really useful and helps you avoid losing toads. Other times, however, it can be useless. If you’re spending a lot of time and effort into collecting the toads, the ability should be good. It should be worth it. Another problem is that the World Tour is a bit short. There are only six worlds. I feel there should be more, seeing as you’re spending $10 on it. You can play part of the game for free, but the fun part only comes in with the full version. Overall it’s a really fun game, I just wish it could be better.
