Rating issues

Besides the well-known Mario platformer action, this game contains violence and content that raises the game to the PEGI 7 level. One of the boss battles takes place in a nightmarish setting in which you need to climb a destroyed tower to confront a realistic looking dragon. This dragon has glowing eyes, sharp teeth and looks rather realistic. You need to dodge its lasers and circular saw lasers to remove pins from its head and stop him once this is done. Some boss battles also contain elements that are more severe than previous instalments from this series.

Other issues

In one of the levels you can capture a realistic looking T-rex and roam the level with it. This beast has a realistic appearance and could be seen as a disturbing element.
Mario can also be outfitted with different costumes. The most noteworthy costume is the Zombie costume. Here Mario looks like a zombie and instead of a hat, he as an axe in his head.
This axe can be thrown, much like the hat he always wears. The reactions of the character to this action, remain the same.
