Google Mario Maps

In plain words

Google Mario Maps is a limited-time collaboration between Google Maps and Nintendo that lets users navigate using Mario Kart imagery and themes. The feature was released for a week in 2018 as part of MAR10 (Mario Day) celebrations. It transforms the standard mapping experience with Mario-themed visuals while maintaining full navigation functionality. The tool is designed for anyone who uses Google Maps and enjoys Mario Kart, combining practical directions with playful gaming elements.
