Ladies and gentlemen! If you are searching for a classic SNES game to put a smile on your face then Super Mario World is definitely one to go for! It encompasses many of the attractive SNES qualities from the 1990s and provides a fabulous gaming experience for young and old gamers alike.

Let's get right to it. The ratings!

Graphics 9/10 :
Classic pixel-art sprites inside a diverse world full of different lands, characters, objects, you name it! All things from Mario himself to Koopa minions are well-done. Each stage is different than any other! Whether you're jumping to spinning platforms or riding a dolphin, the graphics are sure to be a pleasant sight to see. The animation sequencing is done very well for its simplicity. Throwing shells and shooting fire balls all look nice and really flow smoothly throughout the gameplay.

Sound 10/10:
Who could mistake the theme song for Mario Bros?! The classic melody plays itself on every stage with just a slight variation which accentuates the type of board you are playing. Fun Fact time! All the music for Super Mario World SNES was composed and played by one man on a keyboard! Pretty talented to say the least! The sound effects are magnificent as well. From hitting a Koopa with a shell or throwing on a cape, the effects are very fitting for each of their events.

Addictiveness 10/10:
Super Mario World offers hours of fun-filled entertainment. Did you just die? Probably won't be the last time! The addicting quality to the game can sometimes almost mount frustration! After dying a few times, the impatience which ensues only leads to more failure and before you know it.... BAM! addicted. Restarting a whole region doesn't even destroy the fun. In fact, it only seems to drive the player to try harder and think about a different way of approaching a situation in a level! Prepare yourself to not be able to step away.

Story 10/10:
Although the story is quite limited, I find that all the Mario games seem to follow such a pattern. This one is no exception! Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach are out for a vacation, when of course Princess Peach is left alone to be kidnapped by none other than Bowser! Time for Mario to adventure through the many lands of the world and save Yoshi's friends while ultimately defeating Bowser in an epic duel!

Depth 10/10 :
Mario always seems to impress me when it comes to depth. At face value it seems to simply be a 2D side-scrolling adventure and that's it. But when you look into all the additional features within the gameplay, it forces the player to be more aware of secret nooks and crannies which can lead to special surprises! Besides the diversity in landscape and characters for each region, there are secret switches to be found, a secret base to uncover, and a Star Road to open up! Not to mention Star Road can actually shortcut a player straight to Bowser's Castle! It is worth searching for!

Difficulty 4/10 :
Not a hard game to get the hang of at all! It is easy to understand, but challenging to complete. Some levels are definitely easier than others, but every gamer has a weakness to one type of board and that is why Super Mario World is so complete. From swimming to flying there are many ways to succeed.... and many ways to die! The game is challenging enough to provide a few failures, but general gameplay is fairly simple to move through and it leaves the gamer with a feeling of accomplishment to make it through each region one-by-one!

Now that I've expressed my opinion about Super Mario World SNES I hope you go and give it a shot! It is a wonderful game and it is sure to capture your gaming attention! Good luck finding Princess Peach!

Sincerely,

This game was fun. I liked how much secrets there were.

Great review, there was a lot of detail and you explained your opinion very clearly. Good job.

Now, I liked the game (Sure) But I was angry. they make you find SECRET EXITS! and if you don't (one wrong turn) And you don't progress!
