Gamelog Entry #3
Summary:
In Super Mario 64, Mario gets a letter from Princess Peach telling him to come visit her at the castle. Once you get there, you realize that Bowser has kidnaped the princess once again. You then have to jump into paintings which lead you into worlds in which you can gain stars that will eventually open new doors to new worlds.
Gameplay:
In the beginning, I started to understand the basic rules of the game. For example the fact that you can jump, climb into trees and swim under water. I liked the fact that there was no excessive dialog in the beginning, and you can start playing the game real soon and still be able to understand the plot of it.
Perhaps this is because we already know the basic plot of every mario game, to save the kidnapped princess.
As I played the levels I began to see aspects of this game which I hadn't seen on other mario games that I have played before. Some of these things are the fact that you can punch, and pick up things as well as belly flop across the field.
The initial boss battles were pretty simple to beat. And the fact that you can replay the same stages but with different objectives was a nice aspect of playing the game because that way you are able to explore the entire field on each world when doing each mission.
