Super Mario Bros U is a solid continuation of the Wii and 3DS versions and offers fun and variety to our customary Mario level. A quantum leap in innovation, it is, however, not become. It is just as the title suggests: the tried and tested principle on a new platform. As before, you bound by meadows, sand, ice, forest, water and altitude levels with varying heights and water fractions.
Also the gameplay is like in recent versions, only with the items and the multiplayer mode, there are innovations. But here is true: long-proven need not be bad! The levels themselves are varied and lovingly designed and you can always discover something new. The forts are highly thematically what makes some of them a little monotonous, but in sum the individual level demarcates greatly. I liked that very well.
The multiplayer mode with the support of the gamepad is a stunner. One can perfectly support by inserting blocks weaker players, such as young children, and so prevent frustration. This allows the challenge in some levels decrease significantly.
The difficulty Super Mario Bros U is well balanced: Some levels are self-perpetuating, some clearly more demanding, but at the end there is little unfair points. So you can gamble with as medium casual players the game. However, the Star Coins separate the wheat from the chaff, because they are really difficult to reach part. The alternative modes are very challenging and hardcore gamers guarantee a fun playing, which can be expanded again tough on Luigi extension.
Conclusion: Who has the Wii and 3DS version like, can safely access and enjoy other levels!
