this game is just like the mario games for the nes. it was a very colorful 2d platformer for the nes. its very addicting. you have to advance through all the levels untill you beat the game. theres bad guys like snails. its the basic jump on the enamie power up to survive longer classic run around game. with stunning graphics for its time. very addicting music. hours of fun and the basic mario style gameplay this game will belong in the nes hall of fame. if you can find this game anymore and if you are a nes freak a casual gamer or even a collector hunt down this game today.
