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. Mario can move and rotate the parts in order for better accuracy and decapture the parts to place them. To make the minigame more difficult, the parts will disappear a few seconds after they are placed.

The minigame is first seen in the Cloud Kingdom in a Warp Pipe in the middle of the large circular arena. Mario can talk to the Toad wearing a beret and begin the minigame. Mario must replicate the face of a Goomba by placing its eyes, mouth, and eyebrows in the correct spots. He can then talk to the Toad again when he is done. A score of at least 60 points is a passing score, and the Toad will give Mario a Power Moon.

The other version of Picture Match appears in the Mushroom Kingdom and can be found by capturing a Mini Rocket near the Goomba Woods area. This time, Mario must replicate Mario's face using parts of his eyes, eyebrows, mouth, nose, and mustache. The same rules apply as the Cloud Kingdom version of the minigame as Mario must have a score of at least 60 points to earn a Power Moon.

A more difficult version of both Picture Match minigames is featured. In addition to the parts disappearing after being placed, all colors and outlines of the picture, aside from the outer outline, will fade out, leaving the picture as a blank white silhouette. A passing score for this version is 80 points or higher, and Mario will receive another Power Moon.

The background music that plays in the Picture Match areas is a rendition of the Spade Panel/N-Mark Spade Panel minigame music from Super Mario Bros. 3.
