Super Mario Odyssey

Super Mario Odyssey (スーパーマリオオデッセイ, Super Mario Odyssey) is a platforming game for the Nintendo Switch, it is the eighteenth title in the Super Mario series, the seventh original 3D Mario game and the eighth 3D Mario title overall. It was released internationally on October 27, 2017. The game won the Game of the Year award at the National Academy of Video Game Trade Reviewers Awards (where it also won the other categories it was nominated for, except for Control Precision, which was won by Cuphead) and was also nominated for the Game of the Year award at the Game Awards 2017 and lost to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild, despite that, it won Best Family Game at the aforementioned ceremony.

Development for Super Mario Odyssey began right after Super Mario 3D World was released in late 2013. Miyamoto wanted the game to contain the more sandbox-styled gameplay, as in Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario 64 DS. The developers also had several ideas for the game, and the capture ability was one of them.

As of the kingdoms, each location was based on real-world locations, like the Sand Kingdom, which contain elements from Kenta Motokura's experiences during a trip to Mexico, and the Luncheon Kingdom's food aesthetics was inspired by Italy and other European countries.

Super Mario Odyssey has gameplay similar to previous 3D Mario games, specifically Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario 64 DS.

The game is structured in an open-world setting, similar to that found in Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario 64 DS. Mario uses a ship named the Odyssey, a hat-shaped flying vehicle to fly to the game's many kingdoms. He retains many of his moves from the 3D games, such as the Long Jump, Roll, Ground Pound, Ground Pound Jump, Double Jump, Triple Jump, and the returning Dive.

Mario additionally has some new techniques, including one where he can throw his hat and use it as a platform. The hat can also be used to take control of enemies, which plays a very important role in the game.

Unlike previous open-world Mario games, Mario only has three sections of health, similar to Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. Mario also doesn't have any lives from this game. Instead, he will lose 10 coins upon dying.

Cappy can also be controlled by a second player in co-op mode, similar to the co-op from Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

The Capture mechanic is a new mechanic introduced in Super Mario Odyssey. By throwing his hat at certain enemies with, Mario can take control of them. This mechanic is used throughout the game and is an integral part of it, replacing the traditional power-up system in prior games. The list of in-game characters is below :D

Broodals
The Broodals are a villainous group of four rabbit wedding planners in the game Super Mario Odyssey(where they make their debut) and serve as the game's secondary antagonists. They make their first appearance in the Cap Kingdom and later appear in the Sand Kingdom, the Lake Kingdom, the Wooded Kingdom, the Snow Kingdom, the Luncheon Kingdom, and Bowser's Kingdom. They all wear fancy clothing, which is color-coded between each of them, and have dark areas around their eyes. They are subordinates of Madame Broode, a massive, morbidly obese rabbit in a red dress and hat.

They are seen riding around in an airship with Madame Broode's face as a figurehead. They hail from the Dark Side of the Moon, specifically a location known as Rabbit Ridge.

In Super Mario Odyssey, Bowser hires them to plan his wedding to Princess Peach. However, Mario then tries to stop them, battling them throughout the game's many kingdoms. When he reaches Bowser's Kingdom, they attack him in a giant robot called RoboBrood. However, Mario defeats their machine, causing it to launch into the sky and explode with them still inside. Once Mario has successfully stopped the wedding, the four smaller members, now jobless, head off Mario within the carrot-shaped Rabbit Ridge Tower on the Dark Side for a final confrontation. From there, they challenge Mario to a fight against each, back-to-back, for the Multi Moon, culminating in another battle against the RoboBrood. Once RoboBrood is defeated again, it once again launches off and explodes, leaving the Broodals' ultimate fate unknown.
