Super Mario Land

Weather is a funny thing - ask Michael Fish. Storms, hurricanes, and heat waves occur with no real reason. Yet it's a lot worse in Sarasaland, where the clouds brought the arrival of Tatanga, a monster who has taken over the place.

He even wants to marry Princess Daisy - gasp! Needless to say, Mario is none too chuffed at this prospect, and it's your job to guide him as he attempts to free the land and rescue the girlie.

If you've played any of the Mario games (and who hasn't?), then this game will hold no surprises. The player guides the hero through the lands, collecting bonuses and mashing monsters as he goes. Super flowers, hearts, and coins are among the goodies to be had.

Playability to the nth degree! This game is guaranteed a semi-permanent place in my Game Boy, along with Tetris, of course. They don't come much better than this, with great graphics and a tough challenge.

I agree - this is brilliant. It doesn't take long to finish the game, but there's loads of secret things to uncover if you do! A must!
