Review by Matthew Funk
There’s really no point in beating around the Piranha Plant here: Super Mario Maker is one hell of a game, and I’m not the only one who thinks so. Ever since bringing the game home on Friday evening, my roommates and I have hardly been able to put it down. A level-creator unlike any other, this is a game that is somehow both infinite and infinitely accessible, providing endless challenges and laughs no matter who you are or how you want to play.
The most amazing thing about the game is how it teaches the language of the Mushroom Kingdom. Even if you aren’t a Mario expert, there’s hardly anyone who has played video games before who doesn’t know how to play through World 1-1. And with that simple sentence–the “see Spot run” of this language–as a foundation, Super Mario Maker effortlessly shows you how to make sentences into paragraphs and eventual magnum opuses of Mario magic.
