Mario no Super Picross for SFC


Image: MobyGames

Mario no Super Picross

Mario, Wario, and a chisel


Genre: puzzle - overhead

Publisher: Nintendo

Year: 1995

System: SFC


Gameplay Score: 4

Gameplay Notes:

See my notes on the Picross NP series of games. This one plays almost identically, albeit with one nicety that I really miss, and that is having the ability to set all non-set pieces in a row to be crossed out. You can press and hold up a direction to set everything, but it overrides what you had previously put there, even if it was successfully choosing to set a cell. That aside, it's the same game.


Level Design Score: 5

Level Design Notes:


Theme Score: 4

Theme Notes:

The English patch improves the experience vs the Picross NP games that came afterward.


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

The Mario and Wario themed artwork is a welcome addition, but the massive cursor and busy animation that plays each time you set a tile get distracting after a while.


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:


Overall Score: 81

Review ID: 1748
