The first-ever mobile game featuring the world’s most famous plumber can be downloaded from the App Store for free, and then upgrade to the full version for a one-time payment of $9.99.
Players can try the three diferent modes before spending their money on Super Mario Run. These include World Tour, Toad Rally and Kingdom Builder. World Tour fits with the endless runner style of gameplay shown at the Apple Conference, while Toad Rally is an online competitive experience. Finally, there is Kingdom Builder – a basic building game where users take care of their own domain.
Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior VP of Sales and Marketing, said the official announcement:
Super Mario Run is the second game fully developed and published by Nintendo for smartphones – the first one being Miitomo. However, this is the first time the company is introducing one of its most important franchises to mobile users.
