in #gaming7 years ago

Hey !

The year 2016 saw a real boom in smartphone gaming, with gaming developing strongly on all sides, even on the graphics side, which is no small deal at all.

The year saw the release of many games, including the games of the owner of a sensation, remember for example the release of a game or a global phenomenon worthy of study Pokémon GO in the middle of this year, and before the end of the year in a few days issued another game seems to be a new phenomenon is the game Super Mario Run .

The game comes as part of Nintendo's efforts to enter the world of smart phone games, Super Mario Run game inspired by the game Super Mario classic, which was issued on the platform NES known to us in some areas of the Arab name (Atari), and may know many of you that Nintendo's version of one of the Mario games To operate on a platform is not their industry is something rare.

The game was released on December 15, 2016 on the App Store for iOS phone owners, but if you're an Android user, wait until 2017 for the game to be available on Google Play.

Play styles

1 - Individual play

The game takes the style known as Side Scrolling and means that the movement of the character will be in one direction and is - in the case of Mario - always to the right of the screen in an attempt to reach the end of each stage.

Although the mode of play is inspired by the classical method, Super Mario Run is different from Mario's classic gameplay style, as Mario will always be in a constant state of play and therefore the player will not be responsible for moving Mario forward. Mario will also overcome small obstacles, you will not have to jump over the barriers, corridors and obstacles small size, and will not have to jump over the enemies as well !!

If the player has been exempt from all these responsibilities, what is left? Well, the player will have to focus only on overcoming the big obstacles, collecting as many gold coins, special pieces, fungus objects and so on, as well as building and renovating his mushroom kingdom. This is because developers want to make the game as easy as possible. Uses only one hand to play. All you have to do is touch the screen to jump or perform different movements, and the longer you touch the stronger the jump.

The player must also find the unique pink pieces in addition to the golden pieces, get five distinctive pink pieces revealing the other five violet, and get the five violet reveals another five black, so that to get everything in each stage you must play at least three times.

It is also worth mentioning that if you lose at some stage by falling into a trap you will not return to the beginning of the stage as in the classic Mario game, because of the addition of a new element called the balloon which is a balloon that you can use twice in each stage when falling into a trap and its mission It is just a short distance back instead of going back to the beginning of the stage.

2. Group play

In addition to the individual gameplay, Super Mario Run also offers a group game system called the Toad Rally, where players can challenge each other in a race from first to the end of the stage, showing each player on the other as a ghost or a symbol of the shape of Mario that crosses only the place The other player is currently in the same stage.

3- The Kingdom of the Mushroom

Through individual and group play, the player can collect golden coins to build and buy different items and make the adjustments he wants in his own Mushroom Kingdom. This is another gameplay that can be compared to Farmville.

Additional Characters!

The player can also reveal five other characters to play with instead of Mario at various stages: Luigi, Princess Peach, Toad, Toadette and Yoshi.

The way and manner of control of each character vary, each character has its own characteristics and capabilities from the other characters, which is certainly wonderful.

Information about the game

The game was developed by the Unity engine and is the same engine used in the development of many famous games such as Angry Birds and Pokémon GO. The game features stunning graphics inspired by the original classic game we used to play on NES, with many new stages and environments added.

On the level of sound, the game also inspired a lot of original classic game and added new clips by different positions and stages.

The game is currently only available until the moment this article is written on iOS only through the Apple Store, requires running iOS 8.0 or higher, which include iPhone 4S and the like, or iPad 2 and beyond.

The game constantly requires you to be connected to the Internet even if you play the stage do not need the Internet, which is seen by some as one of the flaws of the game, especially after reports from some sites such as Apple from the inside that the game consumes 40 to 60 MB per hour Large bandwidth allows low-cost Internet package owners enjoy the game only by sacrificing much of the bandwidth, in general: no Internet, do not play!

You can download the game for free, but the first three stages will only be available, you can complete the game for ten dollars!

Do not shake the throne Pokemon Goo ??

Super Mario Run achieved a number of downloads on its first release day, three times the number of Pokémon GO downloads, according to statistics from a number of sites such as The Verge, which was quoted by the famous site EuroGamer.net and also according to the site VentureBeat reported by GameSpot rich definition, The game - even at the moment of writing this article - tops the list of games on the Apple Store, and some may see this as a strong victory for the Super Mario Run game, but the figures here are deceptive and lacking some details !!

Despite the release of the Mario game for iOS devices only, the game has been released and has supported the download in 150 countries since its first day, while Pokémon GO was released in its first day in just three countries! Let's not forget Nintendo's big marketing campaign before the game was released and another campaign for the day it was released and this may explain the sheer volume of downloads.

Pokémon GO also jumped dramatically in the downloads just three days after its release, after the end of the first day to download 900 thousand copies ended the third day and the number of copies loaded has exceeded five million copies already !! This dramatic increase in download times may be unexpected in the same way as Super Mario Run. So Pokémon GO is probably now experiencing a real test that will show results in the coming days, especially after the Android version of the game. But the phrase "sweep" does not believe - despite the difference in the number of downloads currently - can be said to have been achieved yet.

Super Mario Run has seen a number of reviews and conflicting opinions. Some see it as wonderful and some see it as good, but not at the level of publicity it has preceded, and some of course see it as bad and incomplete and have many outlets such as the need to connect to the Internet unnecessarily and the amount of ten dollars!
