Picture Match is a minigame featured in Super Mario Odyssey. It appears in the Cloud Kingdom and the Mushroom Kingdom and involves replicating an image of a character as accurately as possible using capturable objects called Picture Match Parts. A Toad wearing a beret hosts both games, and the game is both started and concluded by talking to them. In the Cloud Kingdom, the game is accessed through a Warp Pipe in the center of Nimbus Arena, and the image is of a Goomba. The parts involved are its eyes, eyebrows, and mouth. The Warp Pipe only appears after first completing Hat-to-Hat Combat and returning to the Cloud Kingdom. In the Mushroom Kingdom, the game is accessed by taking a Mini Rocket from near the Goomba Woods into the sky, and the image is of Mario. The parts involved are his eyes, eyebrows, nose, mustache, and mouth.
When the game starts, the game switches to an overhead view of the image, which is placed on the surface of a platform with ramps leading up from the ground. Once the player confirms, the facial features of the image will vanish, replaced by a set of Picture Match Parts on the platform. As a Picture Match Part, Mario can move around and rotate the part with 
and 
. Each button goes in a different direction. Picture Match Parts cannot jump. They are placed by exiting the part. If the part is not mostly on the image, it resets back to the original position. If it is, the part can no longer be captured, and disappears a few seconds after. Both Goomba and Mario parts appear in both games, so it is also important to choose the correct parts. Picture Match Parts are unable to leave the platform.
When the player is done placing parts, they can talk to the Toad again to start scoring. The camera returns to the overhead position, and all of the placed Picture Match Parts reappear one after the other. Points are earned by placing the Picture Match Parts in similar positions and orientations to the original image. A score of at least 60 points passes and the Toad gives Mario a Power Moon. In the Cloud Kingdom, this is Picture Match: Basically a Goomba. In the Mushroom Kingdom, this is Picture Match: Basically Mario.
