It’s been a good year for creative video-games, with Media Molecule giving us the Dreams beta on PS4 and Microsoft churning out another huge Minecraft update. The sequel to one of the GOAT level-editors, Super Mario Maker 2, has returned to blow everyone away with new ways to make and play genius and hilarious creations. That’s not all though, as Super Mario Maker 2 comes with a charming 100 level story mode, downloads, new styles, tutorials, and more.

Making your own Mario levels and playing fellow fans' creations is a ton of fun so let's see how the formula holds up in this Switch sequel.
Super Mario Maker 2 is a whale of a video game. That made for some initial intimidation when I was starting this review. However, with two prior (and very succe
