Super Mario 3D World is the fifteenth title in the arcade game series Super Mario, created by Nintendo, and the first one designed for Wii U. The game consecutively develops the solutions used by its predecessors, especially Super Mario 3D Land released on 3DS in 2011.

Gameplay

Just as the aforementioned title, this one too is a light-hearted 3D platformer, sometimes resembling a classic side-scrolling arcade game. You run through colorful, linear locations filled with obstacles, opponents, and simple logic puzzles. At the beginning of each level you get to pick one of four characters; the remaining three are controlled by AI. You can choose from Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad. Each of them possesses unique skills, e.g. Luigi can jump higher than the others and Toad is a fast runner. Apart from the aforementioned environmental obstacles, the locations contain lots of collectibles, such as coins and power-ups. As for the latter, there is a brand new power-up - a bell that changes your character into a cat. This form allows you to move faster, be a more effective fighter, and climb to reach otherwise unavailable areas.
