WHERE TO PLAY

Captain Toad stars in his own puzzling quest! Our stubby hero must dodge dangers and track treasures across many trap-filled courses. Survive smoldering volcanoes, hazardous steam engines, haunted houses, and even new courses based on the Super Mario Odyssey™ game! Luckily, a second player can join in by tossing turnips at enemies.


Play anytime, anywhere, and anyway you want—even in two-player mode. You could also play alone in handheld mode! No matter what, explore each puzzling course for treasure, like hidden Super Gems and Power Stars. As you reclaim the treasure stolen by the monstrous, greedy bird, Wingo, you’ll eventually be able to play as Toadette! These tiny heroes must waddle, hide, pluck, chuck, and power-up through enemy-infested locales like towers, wild-west shanties, and Goomba waterparks—all bursting with secrets. Aim your head-mounted flashlight at adventure! Discover these experiences by revisiting the following courses as Captain Toad in four new mini-missions:
• The Treasure at Mushroom Ruins
• Walleye Tumble Temple
• Briny Bowl Swimming Hole
• Mine Cart Tunnel Throwdown
