'''Assist Mode''' is a mode in Super Mario Odyssey that makes the core gameplay easier in various ways. Its most prominent feature is placing Mario in a [[bubble]] and carrying him back to safety if he touches a [[Area object|death area]], [[lava]] or [[poison]]. Due to this bubble feature, Assist Mode is often used to perform certain difficult tricks in isolation in order to reduce the time needed to reattempt the trick.
