As the name suggests, Super Mario Run is a endless runner, a subgenre of mobile action games that was popularized by Temple Run back in 2011.
It’s possible that Super Mario Run comes to Android later since Apple head Tim Cook indicated that it will be on iOS “first”. Expect more news on Super Mario Run over the coming months. “In this game, you constantly move forward through the courses while using a variety of jumps to navigate”. “Super Mario Run” looks like a totally new game designed from the ground up to be mobile friendly. Winning in the Toad Rally allows you to collect “toad people”, which you can use to customize your mushroom kingdom. Nintendo rather said it would be on iOS first, and now, Kotaku has obtained confirmation from Nintendo that the game will indeed be coming to Android in the future… Mario will behave different depending on the timing of your taps, so it’s up to you as to how you gather coins and reach the stage goal. There will also be special blocks that will change the direction Mario is running in, or stop him in his tracks.
Miyamoto, who helped create the original Super Mario, appeared on stage to talk the audience through Nintendo’s latest project.
According to the official description of the game, which is already up on the App Store, the game will feature courses for players to compete. Well yes and no, because although the app will be free to download you won’t be able to play it full.
