    Kareen's Super Mario World (SNES)

    [January 26, 2008 05:28:45 AM]
    ******* THIS IS THE CORRECT (FIRST) LOG ENTRY********
    *****************Please grade this one. Due to technical problems, i was unable to save changes in the other entry*********************


    SUMMARY

    Super Mario World is a 2D platform game. The game consists of 9 different worlds with 96 levels within them. While Mario and Luigi are away on vacation to “Dinosaur Land,” Bowser once again kidnaps Prince Toadstool (Peach). Throughout the course of the game, the player goes from the different levels and worlds, all of which become more difficult as the game progresses. Passing each level and moving on to each world gets the player closer to Bowser and rescuing Princess Toadstool (Peach). The practice provided in each level helps improve the players game skill to better be able to defeat Bowser.

    GAMEPLAY

    Throughout my gameplay I found myself to be in a very relaxed and calm state of mind. I’m sure that much of that had to due to the fact that playing this game for the first time after so many years brought me back to a sense of childhood. Aside from that, the music in the game gets one to a “joyful” frame of mind. The colors also add to the mood of the game. The game consists of vibrant and rainbow colors. It is very clear just from the music and look of the game that it is intended, but not limited, to kids.

    The characters in the story also add to the “childhood-like” atmosphere. One might even say that characters are cute. Mario is a short little man with a red hat and t-shirt in overalls. Whenever he dies or is injured he doesn’t die a horrible death, he merely jumps up and his eyes turn into “X’s.” There are also mushrooms that aid Mario. These mushrooms are either green or red and have very simple, but friendly, faces.

    Throughout the entire course of the game the player continues to come across other characters, mostly helpers of Bowser, who attempt to slow down and hurt Mario. If the player kills (with the simple action of jumping on them, with no blood spilled) these characters, the player earns points and receives an overall higher score. The game is simple, but fun to play.

    GAMEPLAY

    Like the first time playing, the second time around was just as enjoyable. Much of that is due to the game’s simplicity, unlike other more complex games that require the player to really think about their actions and how to get from one location to the other. In this game, there is only one direction to go, so it is impossible to get lost. Although the game is so simple, it is still very fun and interesting to play because of the simple tasks the player must accomplish.

    Although there is a story to the game, it is not developed. All the player knows is that Princess Toadstool (Peach) was kidnapped by Bowser and that now it is Mario’s job, along with the help of Yoshi the Dinosaur, to rescue her. There really isn’t any narration going on through the course of the game, which is another element of the games simplicity.

    DESIGN

    Unlike other games where before even starting the game the player must choose the level of difficulty, this game does not have that option. As the player keeps going from level to level, the difficulty of them increase. Even so, the levels are still rather easy.
    The levels differ because the geography of them is different. For example, there are levels that are mainly composed of cliffs and balance beams, there are underwater levels, others located in the sky where you jump from cloud to cloud, and others.

    The game keeps the player interested not only because of the fact that there is variety in the levels, but because there are many small and simple tasks that the player must accomplish. The largest challenge is obviously defeating Bowser. Doing this does not allow the game to become a drag.
