Amazing game! Probably on the best first party games in recent years. The movement feels so good, it's like a modern take on classic Mario games, definitely different from the New Super Mario Bros movement.
The levels are short, but way way different between each other, almost every stage has a new enemy and a new feature. The badge system and the two type of characters (the Mario-likes and the Yoshi-likes) can make the levels feel different in a second playthrough, so it has a lot of replay value.
A lot of people has mentioned that the boss fights are bad, however I didn't mind it that much, because all the castle stages are super fun, fast paced and sometimes even challenging, so I see the levels as the main attraction and the boss fight just as a little extra at the end. That being said, I think the final boss is one of the best fights in all mainline Mario games.
10/10 wonderful experience.
