Super Mario Run vs The Legend of Tianding
Super Mario Run
Super Mario Run is a mobile 2D platform-based arcade game created by Nintendo. The game puts you into Mario's shoes once again but this time, due to auto-running, you won't have full control over Mario himself. That said, you can still make him jump over obstacles, collect coins and mushrooms, jump on enemies, as well as perform cool wall jumps. Thankfully, as the game's speed doesn't increase as you play since the game can be rather complex and getting accurate jumps is of the utmost importance, especially if you aim to get the highest score.The game even has a small castle-building and decorating aspect when you're not out adventuring. There is also the Rush mode where you can attemtp to beat other players’ high scores in the fastest time possible.
If you're a huge fan of everything Mario, Super Mario Run is definitely the game for you. But even if you're not, this game is an incredibly well-made platformer that brings this successful franchise to the mobile market for free. The game is worth your time, that's for sure!
