Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games offers a decent selection of Olympic-themed events featuring the iconic characters. While the controls can be simple and fun, especially with friends, the core gameplay doesn't feel particularly innovative or deep. The included story mode adds a bit of charm, but the overall experience lacks the longevity and exciting minigames seen in past Mario & Sonic collaborations.
