Bowser's Fury was something that totally caught me of guard, as someone who was waiting since the launch of Odyssey for a DLC, this was what i wanted for so long.
It's Funny because it's a mashup of the open World of Odyssey, with 3d world thematic, and both of those things are expanded here.
The world is completely open, but is still very much a "map" structure, you can play freeely between the levels, but each one has distintc music, level design, enemys and so on, and once you finish one you're booted towards the next one, that's so clever.
Bowser's fury show us the future of Mario (i hope) a open game that doesn't boot you off after every star, that also gudies you torwards the next level, but let's you choose in which order you want to do, the music here is astounding, every litle pice has it's own care it's amazing, the power ups are well used, the platforming is great!
My minor complaints would be that it is indeed too short, give us the next 3d mario you cowards! But seriously, if it were bigger it would have more diversity in shinys that kinda repeat throughout the game, and the bowser mechanic is neat but overused, also no triple jump, why?
A gorgeous experience, recommend for everyone to give it a shoot sometime.
