Geography is a subject that many yawn at. Mario is Missing is an interesting game that keeps you attached. The game leads you through countries and cities throughout the world such as London, Kathmandu, Tokyo, and Toronto to reclaim famous landmarks and artifacts stolen by Bowser's henchmen. Though the game is quite outdated in graphics, depth, etc...it is still quite a great game. I strongly recommend this game to anyone who needs to learn some basic geography. This is the game that got me obsessed with the subject.

Worst Mario game ever.

I fortunately rented this game for the good old SNES a couple of years ago, and it really surprised me in a very negative way.
The positive thing is, that it is original in ertain way, because it is very different from previous Mario games, but that positive thing has translated in very boring gameplay.
There's just no action, no nice side scrolling, you're just searching around in this game, but there just isn't any fun.
This Mario game really misses the so called Nintendo magic, and besides that it's just plain boring, and frustating after some hours.
Not only doesn't it feel like a real Mario game, this game also excels in nothing, it is not worth playing, and if you were ever considering buying this, I strongly recommend that you try it first so that you can see how much this game lacks fun.

the 2nd worst game ever

This game is dum. All you do is go around looking for Mario.
There's no action, no fun, no nothing. I can't beleive people bought this boring, pointless, and funless waste of money.

A Fun Educational Game

I have never learned so much from playing a video game than I have from playing this game. It is a lot of fun.

Mario's Missing Something

What Mario is missing is all the action and exitment. It's not so action packed like super Mario world or other Mario games. All it was that I play the role of Luigi and select a door, go to an area, walk around, ask questions,go all over town,and princess is in it, but you just ask her questions. I'm glad it's not a movie,unlike the other Mario games, this one is "BORING"!
Alittle bit of advice, please I'm begging you, do not buy this one. Becuse I got so board, it gave me a headache.

Try Thinking!

Mario is Missing is a great game. It does lack an amount of challenge in the way of other Mario games, however it is intellectually stimulating. If you are unlike most people and like to actually do a little bit of learning, buy this game.

Boring

Im a big fan of mario games and I really hate to do this but this game was stupid it had no challenging actions the enemys don't even beat you you can walk through them or you can beat them. It just envolves tons of boring reading clues just to search for mario and I remember the end the boss was so incredibly easy to beat he can't beat you but you can beat him. I rented this game along long time ago when super NES was a big hit. If you want a really good fun addictive mario game with reading clues too get SUPER MARIO RPG LEGEND OF THE SEVEN STARS it's fun and has alot of hidden clues and very challenging.

The Worst Mario Game In The World

Mario is Missing is the worst Mario game on the face of Earth.

Nintendo shouldn't have given Software Toolworks the Mario license.

Mario is Missing is a horrible crummy educational game that isn't really educational.

cool game fun & all but some problems

i rented this game out one time because it looked fun. you know, you have to find mario and save him. as soon as it showed the part where mario dissapears, it takes you to a dungeon with around 5 or 6 doors. you can go in them in any order. whenever you go in it, you come out of a pipe and you are in a city. when you come off the pipe there is one of those things that yoshi eats on the pipe so you cant go back in the dungeon until you get yoshi. this game also teaches you some stuff in each place you go too. the golden gate bridge, the eiffel tower, etc.

the only dissapointing thing about this game is you cant get hurt! its (and i really mean it) physically impossible to lose! sure its cool you cant die, but it takes all the fun out of it. you need a challenge instead of just winning. however there is a slight challenge. in the city, there is nowhere to go mainly, it all *leads* to a dead end. there are those paratroopa things running around and on some of them if you step on it theyll drop something but i dont want to spoil it. but i gotta tell you this part about the paratroopas and all is CHALLENGING!!!

if you are thinking of buying this game, its ok so make sure you dont spend too much on it

Mario is Missing is Awesome!
