Mario's auto-runner game now lands on Android
Since September of 2016, when Tim Cook and Shigeru Miyamoto took the stage at Apple's annual Keynote to announce the arrival of Super Mario on mobile devices, the hype surrounding Super Mario Run APK, the first game for smartphones and tablets developed by Nintendo, hasn't stopped growing. The highest moment came in December when, after several months of wait, iOS users were finally allowed to download the game to their iPhones and iPads. And ever since then, we've all asked ourselves the same question: when will we be able to download Super Mario Run Android The much-awaited moment happened in March 2017.
What is Super Mario Run APK for Android like
Well, since we can download Super Mario Run Android, leaving Pokémon GO and the portable game console Switch to one side, we can stop trying to imagine what it's going to be like and try out all its features by ourselves.
In the first place, and following suit to the iOS version, it's a free-to-download game, although that 'free' isn't totally true because we'll have to make an in-app purchase to get hold of the full game. Therefore, to play all 24 levels, we'll have to pay a price just under 10 euros.
Super Mario Run for Android costs the same as the iPhone version. Or what did you expect
How to play this auto-runner is identical to iPhone. We can move the most famous plumber in video gaming history around with just one hand, making him run and jump in search of his beloved Princess Peach, while we collect coins on our way, as well as playing the other game modes available, as explained below.
Once you purchase the 24 levels of the 6 worlds, you'll be able to unlock new characters to play with: Luigi, Yoshi, and Toadette. They move differently to Mario so you'll have to learn new controls. You'll also find seven new types of levels, as well as more decorations and buildings for your kingdom to be able to expand it.
Three game modes
This version of Super Mario also comes along with the same three game modes available for iPhone and iPad:
How to play
There's not much mystery to it, remember that it's an auto-runner and not a platformer and that it's a Mario game. Therefore, you'll run forward non-stop trying to avoid all sorts of enemies and obstacles tapping the screen to make the famous plumber jump.
Depending on how you press the screen the jumps will be longer or shorter, and on your way, you can collect coins, including five purpose ones on each level. Peach is waiting for you, so what are you waiting for to rescue her
