Odyssey Companion is a map and checklist app for Super Mario Odyssey on Nintendo Switch. It shows where things are hidden in each kingdom, so you spend less time searching and more time playing. MAPS OF EVERY KINGDOM Each of the 17 kingdoms has its own map, from the Cap Kingdom to the Darker Side. You will find all 880 Power Moons on the maps (836 spots, since a Multi Moon counts as three), along with every Regional Coin, the checkpoint flags, Crazy Cap Stores, paintings, Moon Rocks, Talkatoo, Hint Art, minigames and Luigi's Balloon World. Tap a Power Moon to see a picture of the spot and a short hint on how to get it. The map filter shows everything, only what you still need or only what you already have. Search and your own markers help on the bigger maps. CHECKLISTS AND STATISTICS Everything on the maps is also in checklists, sorted by kingdom. Tick off a moon in the list and it is marked on the map as well, and the other way round. The statistics show your progress in every kingdom. GUIDES AND LISTS There are tactics for every boss fight, lists of every hat and suit, the Crazy Cap Store items, all Cappy captures and the Easter eggs hidden in the game. The enemies, the compatible amiibo with what they unlock and the music tracks are in the app as well. NOTES AND AI ASSISTANT Notes with folders, tags and sketches keep your own plans in the app. On a tablet or an unfolded iPhone Duo they open right next to the map. The AI assistant answers questions about the game; it needs an internet connection and becomes available after an in-app purchase. GOOD TO KNOW Maps, pictures and checklists are stored on your device and work offline. Your progress is saved on your device and synced through your iCloud account. A backup file or a Sync-ID takes it to another iPhone, iPad or Android device. Press and hold the app icon to jump to your checklists or the last map you opened, and find Power Moons right from Spotlight search. The app is made for iPhone, iPad and the folding iPhone Duo as well as Android phones and tablets. It is fully available in English and German, parts are translated into Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. Odyssey Companion is free with ads. The "All Guides" purchase unlocks the outfits, the Crazy Cap Store items, the Cappy captures, the boss guides and the Easter eggs. A separate one-time purchase removes the ads, and the "Fully unlock all our apps" subscription covers both in all of our companion apps.
