Try out the free Mario vs. Donkey Kong demo and save the Mini-Marios!

In the Mario vs. Donkey Kong™ game, you’ll guide Mario to run, jump, and backflip through levels that will also test your puzzle-solving skills. See, this isn’t just about speeding your way through a level. You’ll need to be mindful of puzzling doodads like Color Switches and Warp Boxes, and be careful of treacherous obstacles. The script will then flip for the Mini-Mario levels—in these levels, you’ll guide around the adorable Mini-Marios and make sure they reach the safety of their Toy box. Each world will then culminate in a showdown with Donkey Kong himself!

To get started, please watch the video for a look at some of the contraptions and levels you’ll find in the game. Or you can always just try it out yourself …

While you’re at it, don’t forget that you can change each stage to Casual Style at any time to lower the difficulty. Oh, and you can play all the levels with a friend (or soon-to-be-friend) via couch co-op.
