Super Mario All-Stars

Players choose one of the four games from the main menu and clear side-scrolling platform stages. Movement revolves around running, jumping, crouching, and using power-ups such as mushrooms, fire flowers, and other transformations to overcome enemies and hazards. Each game features world maps, branching routes, hidden areas, castles, and boss encounters. The added save system makes it easier to continue progress between sessions.

Mario

The main hero, using jumps and power-ups to clear stages.

Luigi

Playable in some modes, with a different feel from Mario.

Princess Peach

A key character who is often the rescue target.

Bowser

The main antagonist who guards the final stages.

Learn each game’s jump momentum and enemy patterns before attempting faster routes. Search for hidden blocks, pipes, and ceiling passages; many 1UPs and shortcuts are tucked away off the main path. In castles and boss fights, prioritize safe movement over speed. If a stage is giving trouble, return to earlier levels to stock up on lives and power-ups.

Tips and tricks

• Try suspicious pipes and walls for hidden entrances and warp routes.
