Super Mario Maker 2 is a sequel to the original Mario creation suite on Wii U, but you don't need to have any familiarity with the first game to start playing and creating with the sequel in minutes. The game is broken down into three parts: a campaign mode where you play the aforementioned Nintendo-made levels and do jobs for a bunch of silly construction Toads, a level creator where you build your own courses out of parts from all across Mario history, and an online course browser that lets you play other people's creations alone or in multiplayer.
Even if you don't typically mess with level creators in other games, you owe your latent creative side a chance to play around with Super Mario Maker 2's course creator. If your brainstorms come up blank, you'll still have plenty to play as players around the world submit their own creations - check out our guide to the best Super Mario Maker 2 levels for a place to get started.
