The day has finally come when Android users can control Mario with just one finger!

As reported earlier, Nintendo planned to release Super Mario Run for Android devices on March 23rd. And it's now live and was up earlier than expected!

We've released #SuperMarioRun on Android a bit early! Download it now on Google Play: https://t.co/u4H9bycTyr pic.twitter.com/4nHnPWD9de

Chainfire app has a unroot function

Yep, but that sometimes leaves traces behind, tripping SafetyNet.

this game doesn't even show up on playstore on my rooted galaxy tab s 8.4 or 10.5 any ideas?

Aaand it crashes on rooted devices, as expected.

Aaand as expected,it's a big middle finger to rooted devices.

Safetynet required? Always-online DRM? Looks like Nintendo doesn't want my money. Oh well.

Did play the 1st tuturial world, the toad race, did buy that bonus round house in kingdom, did play bonus game, did play 2 world and then deleted that pile of shit.
Not even worth playing or my time.

Play Store itself checks if you pass SafetyNet. If not, it may hide some apps (like SMR and FE Heroes). Interestingly it still shows PoGo, but you still need to pass SN to actually play it.

So this game is so secure that people with rooted devices can't even buy it? Guess I'll have to wait for a modded apk. Rofl the irony

Only if they don't pass SafetyNet.

As much as I have tried, I can't get the second purple (? - the final) coin of Level 4 World 1 where it's up really high so it's a safe guess it's required to play as Peach to get it. Nice one, Nintendo. Ya sure know how to make gamers replay the stages.

The Easy Mode is pointless, the game itself is already extremely easy, however, it only gets hard if you try to get all the coloured coins.

Not necessarily. I have a rooted device and pass SN, therefore I can play and could buy it.

I never feel like playing any games on smartphones and even tablets. Might aswell just delete the app since I don't even play it anymore. I barely even touched it.

I got it to work by downloading apk and installing, then deleted the data in app setting then restored my save from my nintendo account.

aslong you don't pass sn, you will get an error after a time. you will need to restore the save over and over again. and you can't access inapp store. so it's totally worthless.

That's usually my case but collecting the coloured coins in Mario Run is really fun though at this point, I'm done with the free version. There are a few that I can't get until I unlock the full version. I just ain't gonna pay because the online-only DRM ruins it for me as I can't play anywhere I want, whether with or without internet.

Is there nothing we can do to play it normally with root?

Modified apks or something?

You need a systemless root solution and, depending on your device, a custom kernel which doesn't trip SafetyNet in case of an unlocked bootloader.

 

[megatron_lives]

Works fine for me using rootcloak xposed module and I think I denied a permission in lucky patcher, but rootcloak seems to be key!

Btw I have supersu as systemless and am not using anything else to bypass safety net. No magisk installed and have unlocked Boot loader on lg g5 marshmallow stock kernel

 

[lordelan]

I get that f*cking 804-5100 as well after playing some levels.
It starts well with Magisk but after a few levels the error message pops up and I have to delete that specific XML file with ES File Explorer (google to find out which XML file) and it works again but only for a few runs. That sucks, really.
I was about to buy the full game but I won't do it until there's a nice workaround for this.
