A big improvement on its predecessor!
It’s colourful, controls perfectly and is very, very fun!
A big step up in level variety and more mechanics, enemies and surprises are added. Less stages but making them longer and more interesting is a welcome improvement.
It’s not difficult but the difficulty ramps up by the end. There’s a lot of luck needed due to the pace of the game.
I especially enjoyed the egg man boss battles, especially the pinball stage. And the final 2 stages and the surprises within them are epic.

An absolutely timeless classic! This will always be fun to play!
So, there is some nostalgia talking here. But millions of people can’t be wrong. Super Mario World was the first game I ever played on the first games console I ever owned, the Super Nintendo. I was so young, I wasn’t skilled enough to play it in its entirety with all the secret exits and what not, but replaying it recently means I can now truly appreciate the content in this game.
It sends you to a happy place. Comforting music. Bright, colourful, complex levels. Awesome characters. And fantastic, engaging gameplay.
Being honest, it smashes Super Mario Bros 3 out of the park (nostalgia talking?). Mario controls better. The levels are much more complex. The over-world is much more interesting. And my main gripe with SMB is corrected in that they added some much needed boss variety.
Just returning to the level design, it’s top notch. If you mainlined the game, no secret levels, it would still be great. But there are so many secrets to find and it’s so satisfying when you do.
I really cannot think of a bad thing to say about this game. There’s still some 2D Mario games I’m yet to play but I already know this cannot be topped.

My best experience with Castlevania yet…
For me (non fan-boy), it improves on everything from the NES games.
I love the multidirectional whip and the fact that jumping is now more precise with trajectory changes. These improvements take away some of the difficulty.
It looks fantastic for the time. Colours, backgrounds, and levels all shine.
And goes without saying the music and sound is on point.
The final 2 bosses gave me a hard time. If you’ve not got the exact weapon you need and you’re not on the right part of the screen at the exact right time they will punish you.
Enjoying the series so far!
