"Mario Brothers" combines strategic elements, but without game skills and proper dexterity is a tough nut to crack. This is, first of all, a platform jumper-begalka. The entire playing space consists of a single screen. Platforms are arranged as in the game Joust. Mario and Cousin Luigi can jump on them, climbing higher, or running away from turtles, crabs and bugs. Yes, I almost forgot the most important thing. The animals fall out of the pipes, and slowly moving down, down and down the platforms. Mario should bounce, hitting his head on the platform below them. This confuses them. You can play together.
Versions in brief:
Atari 5200: the most unusual edition of "Mario Brothers", but not the worst
Atari 7800: despite the fact that the game is closer to the original than the version for the Atari 5200, I didn't like it at all. All the elements of a normal game are present, but it was worth working on the animation more. It doesn't feel like you're playing "Mario"!
Nintendo (NES): Almost arcade-quality "Mario Brothers" game (missing intro demo).
