The latest entry within the long-running Mario vs.

Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! across Europe within February next year. Let's just hope that next time, Nintendo does a major overhaul instead of a tiny tune-up.ItвЂ™s time to prepare for a Mario encrusted puzzle-based adventure as Nintendo of Europe have announced that they are to release Mario vs. If you're looking for casual puzzling that gives you plenty of game time for your buck, Mini-Land Mayhem is decent for fans and great for newcomers. Most of the environments and characters have this fuzzy, blurry tint to them that makes the games seem like a port from a system with terrible screen resolution. And while I'm nitpicking, the graphics need some major sharpening. Donkey Kong on the original Game Boy was much more involving and intense by comparison. Personally, I just don't find controlling the Minis that exciting. DK and 2006's March of the Minis, it feels like each subsequent addition to the franchise has been taking deliberate baby-steps. Considering the jump from 2004's Mario vs. While it's fine to not fix something that clearly isn't broken, it's about time for Nintendo's quirky little handheld saga to move to the next level. In turn, that often leads to level creation that doesn't stand up against much of what the actual game offers - but at the very least, you can take to Nintendo Wi-Fi or YouTube for tips.Д®njoying Mini-Land Mayhem really depends on your attachment to the series, and even if you've been counting down the days to this release, you'll likely admit that there's little reason that it couldn't have been another budget DSiWare title.

DK games, but for series veterans, it could be a little frustrating to have so many limited options available at the very start. That's not a problem for people new to the Mario vs.

The Construction Zone - the series' level editor - returns, but many tools are locked in the beginning, forcing you to grind through levels to get the full benefit of the creation tools. Getting each Mini toy to their colour-coded gate is a decent gameplay twist, but nothing that dramatically changes the formula in any significant way.ДЄside from new levels to explore and puzzles to solve, there's not much else to see here that hasn't already been done before in previous Mini titles.

Working with a limited number of resources is sure to test younger gamers, but older Mario fans will probably be able to blast through much of the game with little trouble. Lengthening girders, dragging ladders, and activating pipes are just a few of the things you must do to keep the Mini-Marios, Mini-Toads, Mini-Peaches, and Mini-DKs from breaking, and the added challenge of grabbing collectables makes simple tasks moderately difficult. There's still a lot of charm and ingenuity in using the DS touch-screen and stylus to manipulate the environment. Like the last two titles in the series, you control Mario's Mini toys rather than the famous plumber himself, progressing through dozens of trap filled levels.

As if on cue, Donkey Kong shows up just in time to miss the promotion, throws a huge fit when he doesn't get his hands on a toy, and kidnaps the actual Pauline. This time around, Mario and Pauline are celebrating the opening of their brand new theme park with early visitors getting a special-edition 'Mini-Pauline' toy.

Donkey Kong series, the aim of Mini-Land Mayhem adheres strictly to puzzles and planning by way of Mario's little wind-up 'Mini' action-figures.
