Blurb
"Do you have what it takes to save the Mushroom Princess? You'll have to think fast and move even faster to complete this quest! The Mushroom Princess is being held captive by the evil Koopa tribe of turtles. It's up to you to rescue her from the clutches of the Koopa King before time runs out. But it won't be easy. To get to the Princess, you'll have to climb mountains, cross seas, avoid bottomless pits, fight off turtle soldiers and a host of black magic traps that only a Koopa King can devise. It's another non-stop adventure from the SUPER MARIO BROS.!"
Story
One day, the king of the Koopas Bowser invades the peaceful Mushroom Kingdom and turns the inhabitants into stones, bricks and plants. The only one who is able to undo the black magic of the Koopas is Princess Toadstool, who was captured by Bowser and imprisons her in the last of his eight castles. The Mario Bros. hear about what happened and set out to free the princess, defeat Bowser and restore order to the Mushroom Kingdom.[1]
Gameplay
The player can walk or run through the levels, as well as jump to reach platforms or kill enemies. Throughout the levels are coins for Mario to collect. Coins can be found in brick blocks or ? blocks. Additionally, power-ups are spread through out the game and in ? blocks to help Mario. Mario starts out in his small form an take one hit before dying, but with a Super Mushroom he grows bigger and can take two hits. When he is in his super form, he can find a Fire Flower which lets him use fireballs to kill enemies. There is also a rare Starman that temporarily turns Mario invincible and lets him kill enemies upon impact. There are a total 13 enemies that serve as obstacles (15 counting the False Bowsers and the real Bowser). There are also bottomless pits and lava pits that will instantly kill Mario if he falls in them. If Mario loses all his lives, he will get a game over. However the are 1-ups hidden throughout the levels. Also, if Mario collects 100 coins, he will get a 1-up. In total, there are eight worlds divided into four levels each. There are different types of level designs, including ground, underground, heights, underwater, seaside, and castle. Each design has different obstacles and enemies. At the end of every level is a flagpole Mario must grab to complete it. At the end of the first seven worlds there is a False Bowser battle, and at the end of world 8 there is a battle with the real Bowser. After Bowser is defeated a "hard mode" is unlocked where new obstacles are put in.
