Summary
OK ok, I get it, Kitsune Zero is just a Mario clone pure and simple! It plays like Mario, it has the same power-ups, enemies, and bosses as Mario, it’s Mario in all but name and style. All that doesn’t mean it’s not worth playing because for all its Marioness it is extremely playable and a good platforming game. The movement and jumping are nowhere near as tight as Mario and for that, you will need time to adjust but overall it’s a game you put on amd just zone out with, it’s familiar but fun.
