Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem
Publisher: Nintendo Developer: Nintendo Platform: DS Players: 1 Release: 2010 Genre: Puzzle Rating: 8.7 \ 10.0: Fantastic
This puzzle game, the fourth entry in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series is great fun. The concept-- you must use rail and conveyor belt pieces to draw safe paths for mini wind-up toys to the exit in between colored blocks. The plot has Donkey Kong go to the grand opening of Mario's Mini-Land theme park, and he's not one of the first one hundred customers that received a free Mini Pauline wind-up toy, so he kidnaps the real Pauline instead. There are five different wind-up Mario toys (AKA Minis): Mini Mario, Mini Toad, Mini Peach, Mini Donkey Kong, and Mini Pauline, the toy version of Donkey Kong’s hostage. Collecting all the lettered cards in a single world unlocks a minigame in which you must get the Minis into the correct boxes. Completing a world also unlocks a new template for Stage Builder, a mode that allows you to create your own levels. Until Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection was discontinued, you could submit your custom levels to contests. However, the game can get tedious and frustrating. You don’t have to be a fan of Mario or Donkey Kong to enjoy this game!
