Super Mario Run-o-rama – The TouchArcade Show #286

TouchArcade Rating:

With an absolutely insane week behind us of long days and little sleep attempting to cover what might be the biggest game release (so far) in iOS history, this week’s episode is primarily about Super Mario Run (Free). We go over the craziness of preparing for its release on our end, our thoughts on the game, the community reaction, and things we’re curious of- Particularly with what likely ended up on the cutting room floor. From there we quickly talk about Highway Runners ($0.99) and Motor Circle (Free), two silly games that have gotten our attention lately. Oh, and of course, we close it out with some news.

We’re doing things a little differently with this podcast (and future podcasts) in that we’re doing two versions of the show: The one here will be the same old podcast you’ve listened to for years now, but if you back us on Patreon, you’ll get access to a special video version of the podcast where you can see the games we’re talking about being played in real time, as well as what it looks like when Jared sits around petting his cat… Among other things. If you’re an existing backer, check Patreon for the video!

      Sweet! Looks like I'll have to pick this up later once there are some reviews indicating it is worth it.

      Does anyone know if this is what Chris Sawyer has been working on? I remember he was interviewed and mentioned working on bringing the old games to mobile.

    8. Ashley Steven Dawson

      It's brilliant but a patch/fix is needed, when constructing rides such as roller coasters or gokarts you cannot change the gradient or level of the piece of track! Otherwise fantastic working my way through it.

      I used to have this game on the very first pc I ever owned. If it's as good on mobile as it was on the pc it's endless hours of fun.
