Mario Vs. Donkey Kong™ - US Version

If you like mild puzzles, platforming games, or casual speedrunning, you should try this game out! As of right now, there is a demo on the Nintendo eShop that will show you what the game is like.One of the things that they added that I love is the multiplayer. Sadly, it is local-play only, so you CANNOT play online. You can only play in the same room using local play. This game works with 1 or 2 players.There are over a hundred levels in this game, and more worlds than you think! There are additional challenges for each level, such as completing it in a certain amount of time.Overall, I would say this game is of moderate difficulty. It’s good for any age in my opinion, but especially people who love Mario games! It makes a great gift because this is a title that someone is less likely to own, since it’s a spin-off game. It’s also a GBA game, so while it has modern graphics, the gameplay is blatantly 2000s.I’d rate it a 10/10. It’s a fun game to beat or complete 100%. It took me 20 hours to collect/complete everything, but a lot of that time was spent working on all of the Time Attacks.Do NOT use an NSO game voucher on this! Because it is $50, you will miss out on saving $10 because this is not a full-priced game.

Very fun but does get challenging at some of the later levels. Which is awesome. Best played with two people.

Lots of fun, great graphics! Love playing with the kids. Easy enough for my 5 year old to play independently but entertaining enough for adults.

Bought it as a gift and they loved it. Great game super fun.

The media could not be loaded. To anyone wondering what Mario vs Donkey Kong is, it's a remake of a puzzle-platforming game that was released for the Game Boy Advance many years ago. You control Mario through cleverly designed courses and try to get all the collectibles while avoiding hazards to reach the goal. Some levels stages also require Mario to lead toys to a certain point, or even battle Donkey Kong using other items. It has a REALLY good soundtrack and really good looking graphics/cutscenes. It also features extra levels not seen in the original GBA title. Also new is multiplayer -- one person can control Mario, the second person can control Toad.I think it's really good for the most part -- though the price is quite steep in my opinion. I think this game should be at most $39.99, it's a really good game minus that. I would highly recommend getting it during a sale if you're skeptical, but Mario vs DK is solid.

Love this game! It’s fun and makes you think a little bit to get to the end of the higher levels. Appropriate for all ages

Great game
