        Puzzle & Dragons Z + Super Mario Bros. Edition is a 2015 puzzle game for Nintendo 3DS developed by GungHo Online Entertainment. It is a compilation of Puzzle & Dragons Z and Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition from the Puzzle & Dragons series for North America and Europe. Before the bundled game was announced, the first game Puzzle & Dragons Z (パズドラZ Pazudora Z?) was released in Japan on December 12, 2013, and Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition (パズル&ドラゴンズ スーパーマリオブラザーズ エディション Pazuru & Doragonzu Sūpā Mario Burazāzu Edishon?) was released in Japan on April 29, 2015.[1] The bundled game was released in May 2015 for NA and PAL regions.[2]

        Development

        On May 3, 2013, GungHo revealed a spin-off for the Nintendo 3DS named Puzzle & Dragons Z (パズドラZ Pazudora Zetto) during the Puzzle & Dragons Fan Appreciation Festival 2013. The game was released in Japan on December 12, 2013.[3] Gameplay is identical to the mobile game, but it adds RPG elements such as towns and NPCs. As of July 30, 2014, the game had shipped over 1.5 million copies.[4]

        Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition for the Nintendo 3DS features characters from the Super Mario series in gameplay similar to that from Puzzle & Dragons Z, including an overworld and story. It was released on April 29, 2015, in Japan as a standalone title.[5]

        The bundled game for North America, Europe, Australia, and South Korea was first announced on January 14, 2015 and was released on May 22, 2015.[6]

        The Nintendo eShop has an exclusive pre-purchase bonus by adding a special downloadable creature which is provided by online code found on the electronic receipt after purchase.[7]

        Reception

        IGN's Kallie Plagge awarded the game a score of 7.9 out of 10, stating Puzzle & Dragons Super Mario Bros. Edition is the shining star alongside the less successful Z."[8] It has a score of 73% on Metacritic.[9]
