I think Super Mario 3D World controls way worse than basically any other 3D Mario, but I still had fun with this. Always having something to do no matter where you go is great for the flow of the game.

It's a bit easy overall. The few missions that weren't easy were either tedious or used the one hit kill lava which is kinda eh.

It's a good little diversion. Obviously this wasn't intended to be the next Odyssey or anything so you have to meet it on the terms of it being a side game, but I do hope the next 3D Mario installment doesn't follow in this games footsteps - I much prefer the fleshed out worlds and player movement expression in 64/Sunshine/Odyssey.
