"71360 Adventures with Mario is a genuinely innovative play experience for young Mario fans that falls into Mixed Reviews territory because of its steep $59.99 price for 231 pieces, app-only instructions, and the need to buy expansion sets to get full value. Kids love it, experienced LEGO buyers are more cautious."
71360 Adventures with Mario sits in Mixed Reviews territory with a BrickScore of 64.1, reflecting genuine tension between what it does well and where it falls short. Owner scores reveal a sharp split: the set carries a 4.8-star average on Amazon across over 27,000 ratings, driven by children and Mario fans who love the interactive figure. But on LEGO.com's own platform, ratings drop to 3.84, and the value-for-money signal is only 3.4 out of 5, with just 72% recommending it. The $59.99 MSRP at $0.26 per piece drew the sharpest criticism.
Where they split: The owner-versus-critic split is the defining story here. Amazon buyers, skewing heavily toward parents buying for children, deliver a 4.8-star score across 27,000+ ratings. LEGO.com buyers, who include more experienced adult LEGO fans, rate it only 3.84 with a value-for-money signal of 3.4 out of 5. The BrickScore of 64.1 reflects the expert aggregate and owner nuance together: the concept is fun and the interactive figure works well, but the price-per-piece and app dependency are real drawbacks that temper the overall verdict.

Owners love the Mario theme and interactive gameplay, but the app-only instructions and tech glitches create frustration, especially for families wanting device-free building time.
