Oddmar (Switch) Review - A remarkable mobile port

Some might think that the portage of a successful mobile game on the Nintendo Switch could be a recipe for a disaster, but this is not the case for a small game called Odd mar. This unique action platform set comes from the developer and the More Editor. On the surface, Odd mar may seem like a basic action platform title that was done a million times before, but I challenge you to take a look at this game and at least play. A level. You will find it visually attractive, and after playing at this level, you will be addicted to anything about Odd mar — Visuals, gameplay, sounds and level design.

Although history is not too exciting, it is enough to interest you in the quest in front of the main character. It's simple, but it allows you to have a reason to browse history. You play a Viking named Odd mar, who is not interested in being a great warrior. In other words, until a fairy visits him in his sleep and grant him magical powers that give him the opportunity to jump up via a bag of mushrooms. From there, you leave and recover objects and save the villagers who have mysteriously disappeared. Easy? Yes, but you are there for anything except for history.

The game dynamics is similar to anyone who has already played a platform game like this one. It reminds me of a classic Rayman game in style and controls. You can easily take this game, and it will seem strangely familiar, because you know what you need to do and have a good time to do it. This may not be a very long game, with about 24 levels, but things are constantly changing in the design of the level with a variety of enemy boss and a multitude of tasks to accomplish. Sometimes you have to run and jump from an enemy who pursues you, while other times you will board a boar through a level. There are even challenges mixed at different levels, including collecting parts and speed runs. Odd mar really likes to change things at all levels, and it really improves the game experience overall. You will not get the feeling that the development team simply tries to reach the end of the same level several times. Thus, even veterans of this kind will stay on their guards with ever-changing elements in the world of Odd mar.

The visuals are staggering in this game. The watercolor and the details in the cinematic, and throughout the game, show the extreme attention to the details that the developer More put in this love letter for the platform games. It is bright, colorful and even comic at the same time, creating its own sense of style and substance. All of this is further improved by solid music and sound effects highly centered on the platform because they are added and suitable for the world's atmosphere created by More.

The only disadvantage of Odd mar that I can really emphasize is replayability. Although you can go back and collect objects, after that, you have about completed with the game. Even in this case, I can not hate this game too much, keeping in mind that it can be Typical of this style of play. In addition, I would hate that the game loses its appearance and your conviviality by having bogged stretching too thin to expand the game, because what we have is incredible. Of course, I think the game could have benefited from some additional levels or mini-games, but it's not a break.

Oddmar Review (iOS & Android) | Game of the Week Odd mar is a platform game full of beauty and visual stuff, and it is very fun to play. More has shown his attention to the details and his overall talent with this title. I still can not believe it was once a mobile game. Odd mar has a familiar charm, but who raises experience, it's graphics and gameplay. Although the story can be forgotten and there is little value of rejection, fans of the genre will be extremely impressed by this small refined platform game.
