Session fun rating: 10/10
I played through the Water and Ice worlds with my girlfriend today. What strikes about this game is that is feels a lot more difficult than NSMB 2 and NSMB Wii. We have to be more careful, my girlfriend had to use two continues already and we sometimes struggle to just get through a level, let alone get all the hidden coins.
The Water world had some cool moments but it's boss fight was pretty simple. The Ice world had a some weird stuff though. The ghost house had us running around trying to find hidden doors until time ran out, the fortress was hard to survive and Wendy, the little wench turtle, had a difficult fight due to the slippery floors, her fucking projectiles, her movement pattern and her damn ice skates. We then had a nice level aboard Bowser Jr.'s ship with a ton of callbacks to SMB3 such as giant screws and bullet bills all over the place.We are now heading to a forest looking world where I hope to see some Wiggler action. It's weird though, we haven't actually seen Bowser yet. Only a mechanical arm and Bowser Jr... I wonder if there's something to that or if I just missed something.
