This is a nice side-game that has me looking forward to the future of 3D Mario games. I love how well 3D World's gameplay mixes with Odyssey's, and I am glad that this doesn't have any of the uninteresting objectives (such as simply groundpounding a hill) included in the latter. Each objective feels fun and engaging, and it's a wonderful idea to have areas change slightly if you leave and come back.
I did find the Fury Bowser mechanic to be extremely annoying, however. It's a cool idea at first, but it doesn't take long for it to become more bothersome than interesting as it interrupts whatever you were doing. Fury blocks are a smart way to make Fury Bowser helpful, but I didn't like that you had to wait for him to spawn instead of just being able to make him appear at any time.
I also wish each area felt a little more natural with obstacle courses built into them rather than obstacle courses with a theme added later, but it's not too big of an issue.
Overall I really enjoyed my time with this despite the few annoyances along the way and I hope a future 3D Mario game adopts a similar gameplay style to this.
