Toad Rally for example is a racing game that you can play after completing the first play-through using special tickets that you picked up during the campaign. If the main game isn’t enough for you then there are side-games as well. Special red coins appear after you’ve collected all the standard red coins and they are incredibly difficult to pick up. They are so important that you’ll find yourself replaying previous levels just to collect the coins that you missed, especially those red coins. The coins are very important to collect, more so than in previous versions of Mario. Those obstacles include enemies and small objects and you have to time your jump just right to get over them and collect coins along the way.
The only thing that you have control over is the jumping however the way that the environment changes and throws random obstacles at you demands that you have some skill to get through the levels. Some of the classic elements have been stripped back to make it appeal to a more modern audience.
