Review

To call this game an improvement over the first game would be a huge understatement. It's sort of miraculous that they were able to make something this close to a real Mario game on the original gameboy. It incorporates elements from SMB3 and Super Mario World, like power-ups that let you float, and a spin jump that can break blocks. You get a full world map full of interesting areas, and you can collect coins to gamble in a unique item-acquiring minigame. The levels you explore are creative, including a giant clockwork Mario statue. It's still a gameboy game, so everything feels slightly wrong: the controls are floaty and weird, the game slows down if you look at it funny, and it just doesn't feel like Mario; but all the stuff they put in it makes it an honorary Super Mario game in my book.

Score
