LEGO® Super Mario™

Interactive companion for LEGO Super Mario builders of all ages

The LEGO® Super Mario™ app is designed to turn physical brick play into a richer, more interactive experience, and it succeeds in most of the ways that matter. Rather than replacing the sets, it acts like a smart guide and scoreboard that lives alongside your real-world courses.

The standout feature is the collection of 3D, step-by-step building instructions for every supported set. These rotating models are clear, zoomable, and far easier to follow than paper booklets for younger builders, especially when tackling larger expansions. Adding sets to your digital collection is straightforward, letting you visualize and manage your growing LEGO Super Mario universe.

Once your LEGO Mario, Luigi, or Peach figure is connected via Bluetooth, the app really comes to life. It records coins, defeated enemies, and obstacles cleared during your custom levels, then presents everything in neat summaries that make each run feel like a score-chasing game. Play Challenges and instructional videos add extra structure and ideas, nudging kids to rebuild levels and try new layouts instead of sticking to the starter design.

There’s also a gentle social angle. You can save your favorite course setups, snap photos of your creations, and share them within the app’s curated community, as well as pin other builders’ designs for inspiration. It all feels family-friendly and tightly moderated, with no intrusive third‑party ads.

On the downside, Bluetooth pairing can occasionally be temperamental, and the app’s feature-rich interface may feel a bit busy on smaller screens. Some content is also locked behind a LEGO account, which not every parent will love.

Still, for families invested in LEGO Super Mario sets, this companion is almost essential: it keeps kids building, experimenting, and replaying long after the box is opened.
