Description of Mario is Missing!
One of the best Carmen Sandiego clones, Mario is Missing is a fun edutainment title that is aimed at educating kids ages 8-12 about the world’s geography and history.
As the title suggests, it stars Mario, Nintendo’s most famous character whose reputation went far beyond the console. The plot will be familiar to any Mario fan: Bowser, the arch-nemisis of brothers Luigi and Mario, plans on kidnapping all the wold’s most famous artifacts. So Mario, as usual, goes off to Bowser’s castle in Antarctica to confront this villain, only to get captured himself. Now it’s up to Luigi to find his bro and, while he’s at it, recover all the world’s treasures.
While there are some jumping and platform-style maneuvers similar to the Nintendo games, this is no arcade adventure. Mario is Missing is actually a cleverly disguised voyage of discovery around the world, learning about various cultures, geography, and history. There are dozens of cities to visit around the world, and in each one you have to ask the locals to find out where you are so that you can direct your pal Yoshi to come to your assistance (he’s still waiting in Antarctica).
You’ve also got to find three evil koopas who are prowling the streets, having stolen three famous artifacts from the city’s tourist attractions. Whenever you learn some interesting facts about the objects you’re carrying, take note, because the girl in the tourist office will be asking you questions to make sure that you deserve the reward. The controls are a bit more complex than your average arcade games: you can talk to people, swap artifacts around, check out the city map, recall past conversations and call up a world map for summoning Yoshi.
Overall, Mario is Missing won’t give Carmen a run for her money, but it’s still a very entertaining game for anyone who is not joystick-shy. The streets are a bit too repetitive, though, so a lot of patience is required.

| Платформа: | DOS |
Mario is Missing! — довольно-таки любопытное образовательное приложение по известному маскоту Nintendo — водопроводчику Марио. Во многих рецензиях оно (а также Mario’s Time Machine и Mario’s Early Years) сравнивалось с известной серией образовательных игр про Кармен Сандиего, причём явно не в пользу первого. Тем не менее первая игра с Луиджи в главной роли приобрела какую-никакую популярность (ещё бы — она вышла на нескольких платформах, включая уже начинавшую подгнивать приставку NES), а на ПК вышли как дискетная версия, так и CD-переиздание со странной озвучкой (Марио говорит с ярко выраженным итальянским акцентом, а Луиджи — нет).
Как это ни странно, но в название уместился не весь сюжет — Марио наелся каких-то не тех конфет и оказался заточённым в замке Купы (главного антагониста серии). У последнего, кстати, злодейские планы стали куда более амбициозными — затопление планеты Земля посредством таяния антарктических льдов вместо похищения принцессы.
Игрок управляет Луиджи, братом Марио. Всё начинается в том самом замке, где можно выбрать, с какого из пяти городов (Рим, Найроби, Пекин, Москва, Сан-Франциско) начинать игру. Собственно, цель — прибить на локации всех черепах (их местоположение можно узнать у прохожих), собрать все достопримечательности, связанные с той или иной страной, или их части и принести их в музеи. После этого придётся ответить на некоторые вопросы (вот в этом и заключается образовательный элемент — в игре можно найти информацию о том или ином памятнике, здании или сооружении). После прохождения всех пяти этапов на экране появляется следующий этаж замка, где также нужно выбрать уровень (всего 25 городов в 24 странах), а в конце оказываемся на самом верхнем этаже с Марио и Купой.
DOS-версия — единственная, где присутствует телефон, по которому можно связаться с работниками музеев, поспрашивать кое-что или предупредить о наличии у вас достопримечательностей. Также у Луиджи имеется компьютер, где можно почитать о положении дел в городе, и ограниченное количество жёлтых машинок, при помощи которых можно заказать такси и доехать до определённой точки на карте (в большинстве своём бессмысленная вещь).
Стоит отметить, что графика у игры действительно замечательна (в версии для SNES, например, использовались спрайты с Super Mario World, а тут всё нарисовано с нуля). Только стоит отметить, что все помещающиеся в экран (320×240, кстати — редко используемое в приложениях для DOS разрешение экрана) части уровня однообразны, что вкупе с запутанной картой и немного чудаковатой системой перемещения может неслабо потрепать нервы. Музыка — ремиксы тем из того же Super Mario World, которые отдельно отмечались критиками в рецензиях тех лет.
Если кому-то игра покажется слишком лёгкой или наоборот, в настройках можно изменить уровень сложности, составленный по возрасту играющего — от семи лет до восемнадцати и выше (какой взрослый будет в это играть?). Возможно, детям Mario is Missing! и можно порекомендовать, но отсутствие перевода на русский язык рубит всё на корню. В качестве тренажёра по английскому языку — тоже нет, поскольку в диалогах встречаются трудные для перевода разговорные выражения.

Overview
Mario is Missing! is an educational video game developed and produced for multiple systems and platforms (PC, NES and SNES). The PC and SNES versions of the game were released in 1992, and they were made by Software Toolworks, while the NES version of the game was released in 1993, and it was developed by Radical Entertainment. A French software publishing company Mindscape published the first two versions of the game and the NES version was published by Nintendo. It should also be noted that the PC version of the game was released on a floppy disk, and that there was also a CD-ROM Deluxe version, that came in a form of a CD (it was released the following year).
This is a geography-learning game and also the first game where Luigi became a starring character (yay!). However, based on the overall reception from the players, the critics and the gaming community in general, this was a very bad debut for Mario’s brother and side-kick. Despite the fact that some elements from the widely popular installments (Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World) were present in this game, it failed to attract many players and its gameplay was widely slammed by both the gamers and the critics. The only things that stood out are the remixes of the popular themes from Super Mario World, and they received mostly positive comments from the whole community in general. However, it was not enough for this title to escape the label of a huge failure on almost every possible level.

Story
The usual antagonist Bowser returns to this game as well and, again, he is up to no good! This time he wants to flood the entire Earth by melting the Antarctica with hairdryers from Hafta Havit Mail-Order. In order to buy the hairdryers, he sends his minions (Koopa Troopas) to steal various notable landmarks scattered around the globe, so that he could sell them and get the needed amount of money.
Mario, Luigi and Yoshi learn about his intentions and travel all the way to Antarctica to stop him, but then things start going in the wrong direction. Bowser manages to capture Mario! There are differences in the way the Mario is captured in each of the 3 versions of the game, and we will now describe each of them. In the PC version of the game, Luigi is too scared and refuses to go inside the castle, so Mario enters it alone. Luigi warns Mario and tells him that he shouldn’t take candies from strangers, but he doesn’t want to listen and takes the candy that is offered to him by a butler (Bowser in disguise), only to be scooped up in the net. In the SNES version, as soon as Mario, Luigi and Yoshi reach the castle, a pit opens beneath them and “swallows” Mario. In the NES version, Mario is captured in a bag that is thrown at him by the Koopa.
As his brother is captured, it is up to Luigi to recover the stolen artifacts and save Mario. Before the game begins, he enters the castle, leaving Yoshi behind him.
Check out the official story overview from the manual below:-
Bowser’s Plot
Oh no! Bowser and his bad boys are back to a life of crime. This time, it’s not Mario World — it’s your world! From his Antarctic castle, Bowser hustles his cold-blooded crew of cantankerous Koopas into his powerful Passcode Operated Remote Transport And Larceny System (PORTALS). The twisted turtles transport themselves throughout the globe, where celebrated cities suffer shocking crime waves, as turtles trash landmarks and loot ancient artefacts. With dough from his slimy sales, Bowser hoards hair dryers from the Hafta- Havit Hotline. His plot? Melt Antarctica and flood the planet! Whoa!
Mario’s Fate
Will the brave brothers from Brooklyn permit this abominable snow plan? The boys say «Not!» Mario, Luigi and Yoshi trek across ice and snow to shellac the shelled ones’ schemes. But Bowser’s slick; in one last trick, he takes the dearest thing of all.. Mario is Missing!
Luigi’s Mission
Luigi must stop the Koopas, foil Bowser’s plan, and find Mario. Sneaking into each Portal, Luigi is transported to a city in trouble. There, Luigi needs to nab each Koopa, grab its loot, and return the artefact to its proper landmark. Along the way, Luigi explores the city, chats with the locals, reads the maps, and solves puzzles. Help him do this before time runs out! Once he figures out where he is on the globe, Luigi must use the «Globulator» to call Yoshi. Only after Yoshi scares Pokey away, can Luigi return to Bowser’s castle and lock the Portal for that city.
The deluxe version of Mario’s kidnap.
Gameplay & Controls
This game has a slightly different gameplay than the usual games from the Mario franchise (well, it is an educational game after all). In order to make your life easier, this section will describe what kind of experience you may get while playing the game…
As it was already mentioned, Luigi is the lead character of the game so, obviously, he is the character you are controlling here. In order to beat the level, you need to retrieve several stolen artifacts in each of them, and return them to their rightful places. In order to do so, you will have to confront Bowser’s minions who stole them. You have to beat them in a standard way that is familiar and that is commonly used in the platform games of the franchise – you need to stomp on them. After you do so, and before the artifacts are properly put to their corresponding places, you need to take the quiz and answer several trivia questions about the landmarks themselves. Some people claim that a woman who asks you those questions, and who appears in the kiosks in the SNES version of the game is Princess Daisy herself. However, this is not a confirmed appearance.
The PC version of the game has a videophone aspect added to the gameplay, and you need to call the help number to be in touch with his friends, answer the questions, retrieve the artifact, and receive a money award. The mayor of the city contacts Luigi as soon as he arrives, and asks him to stop Bowser’s minions. He also contacts him when Luigi manages to save the city, in order to thank him and wish him good luck in finding his brother. Mario also phones Luigi, giving him various hints about his journey, the Koopas and his own status as well. The PC version also has a Taxi feature in it. You need to collect the taxi coins scattered across the city, and then exchange them for drive-troughs across the town. The SNES version doesn’t have a Taxi feature, but it has elevator-pipes as a method of faster transportation instead.
Retrieving the artifacts is not the only objective in the game. You also need to find out in which city you are located, in order to use the Globulator and call Yoshi to help you on your journey. You cannot beat the level without Yoshi, since the last elevator-pipe has a large Pokey who is guarding it. Yoshi goes to gobble him up in the PC version of the game, while he gets merely scared by Yoshi’s presence in the SNES version of the game.
The map as it appears when viewed through the Globulator on the SNES version. Look familiar? It’s in the exact same style as the Super Mario World map!
As soon as you secure all the cities whose doors are located on a certain floor of the castle, you need to get a Fire Flower power-up, while in the SNES version of the game there is a small boss fight instead. The main thing, though, is that none of the bosses can hurt you, and you can easily beat them by stomping on them several times (this applies to both the NES and the SNES versions of the game). The console versions of the game are also different in a way that the Koopa Troopas are not beated when they are knocked out, but when they are soundly stomped on.
After the original PC version of the game, an enhanced version of the game (CD-Rom Deluxe) was also released. It had voice acting added on, just like the dialogues (not all of the text was synchronized with the audio though). There are voice actors as well, and they are: Kathy Fitzgerald, Bob Sorenson, Rob Wallace, David Giller and Nicholas Glaeser. It is not known which of these actors had which roles though. There are some graphical modifications in this version of the game as well, such as the loading screens when the screen is black and, also, the icons of Toad, Donkey Kong and Princess Peach replace a phone call NPC (although the dialogue from the previous version remain unscratched). Each of the historical spots in the game was originally recreated and shown in garish coloring mode. This version also replaces most of these pictures with real photographic images and even some video sequences that represent the landmarks (there are some exceptions carried over from the previous version of the game though).
Locations
As this is a game where the player gets to learn some geography, it is only logical that there are various real-life locations in it.
