The game uses a third-person 3D platforming perspective. On the file select and act select screens, players can switch characters with the D-pad. Each character has unique movement traits: Mario can spin through the air, Luigi jumps very high but feels slippery, Toad is nimble with weaker vertical jumps, Peach can float briefly and perform an aerial spin jump, and Rosalina has her own special air mobility. Progress is driven by collecting stars, clearing stages, and unlocking new areas through precise jumping, movement, and environmental interaction.

Mario

A balanced character with an air spin, suited for general movement and exploration.

Luigi

Has exceptional vertical jump power but slippery traction, ideal for long reaches.

Toad

Agile and quick, but with limited vertical leap.

Peach

Can float for a short time and perform a midair spin jump, offering strong recovery.

Rosalina

A playable character with her own unique aerial mobility traits.

Learn each character’s movement quirks before tackling harder routes. Luigi and Peach are best for vertical or gap-heavy sections, while Mario is the safest all-round choice. Use aerial control to correct landings and avoid overcommitting to risky jumps. For tight platforming, plan your approach angle before taking off.

Tips and tricks

Test each character in a safe area first to get used to their jump timing and traction.

Tips and tricks

Peach’s float can save mistakes, but it should be used sparingly.

Tips and tricks

Luigi is excellent for long jumps, but pre-align his movement to avoid slipping.
