About this game
Mario fights creatures coming from the pipes in a fixed arena. Jumping into the floor beneath an enemy turns it over; reaching it to kick it away completes the attack. Crabs need another hit, while Fighter Flies must be caught as they land. The POW block affects enemies across the floors, but also wakes overturned ones. In two-player play, Luigi joins the same space, so a helpful hit can also undo another player’s setup.
Collected in series

A compact action game built around setting up an attack and finishing it.
The gap between overturning and kicking creates room for coordination or interference. Different enemy rules keep timing relevant.
