Not only was it a welcome experience to have the perennially kidnapped princess be the hero for once, but her floaty jump also proved to be useful throughout the game. We played the vast majority of 3D World as Peach. Mario is the all-rounder, while Luigi and Toad excel at jump height and run speed respectively. In the quest to save the Sprixie Princesses from Bowser, players can choose from one of four playable characters from the outset, each with their own quirks.
