Super Mario Run is a 2016 auto-runner platformer developed by Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development for iOS and Android. Unlike traditional entries in the Mario franchise, Mario moves forward through courses automatically, leaving the player responsible only for tapping the screen to jump. Tap duration determines jump height, making the entire game operable with a single hand. Mario's behavior varies based on tap timing, rewarding precise inputs with smoother movement and better coin collection. The game features three distinct modes. The first presents a series of courses focused on completion and coin gathering. The second is a competitive mode where players challenge the recorded runs of others, attempting to clear stages with greater style to attract Toads. The third mode shifts to kingdom building, where coins and Toads earned across the other modes are used to construct and expand a personalized Mushroom Kingdom.
