Hello
imamonster here with another game review this time I will be reviewing Super
Mario land 2 6 golden coins. First let's talk about the back story of this game
and how it came to be. Super Mario land was a big success so of course they
would make a sequel soon right? NO. This game came out 3 YEARS 3 FREAKING YEARS
after the super Mario land 1 was released. What took em so long. Like the first
super Mario land Shigeru Miyamoto was not part of the credits. Since he did not
work on this game. This time it was Hiroji Kiyotake. This game is also
known for something else a secret but that will be told later in the review.
Let's get started.

Graphics 10/10
The graphics are amazing for the gameboy. If you have read my previous review.
You would know that the graphics in the first Mario land were not so good and
made the game harder. Everything was small. But this time everything is big!
Mario it looks like you stopped that diet huh? (reference to my previous
review) The sprites are well detailed and platforms this time around are easy
to see. There are emotions on the faces. And animations are phenomenal.
Backgrounds are also very well done some even look amazing. Space zone just
looks awesome all the little details they put in like the word happy in the sky
and the blinking stars. And macro zone where everything is big or where you are
small. And there are giant bugs.And then there is pumpkin zone. A zone with
horror movie influences. You will see things like Jason masks. And the mirrors
from the Dracula hammer movies.(only a horror movie nerd like myself know how
they are) and that makes it my favourite zone in the graphics department. And
the Mario zone is also great. Which is very unique with balls in the background
If you play the game in color it looks great it looks vibrant and nice.
that is really it for the graphics there isn't a lot to talk about The
graphics get a 10/10

Sound 8/10
The music of the first super ?Mario land was composed by Hirokazu Tanaka the music was great. But in this game the music was composed by Kazumi Totaka. Known for games like The legend of zelda links awakening and yoshi's story. In a lot of the games he worked on there is a secret. Known as totaka's song in this game if you get the game over screen wait 2 minutes and 30 seconds the totaka song will play. You can defenitely hear totaka's style in this game. It is very uniqiue and hard to explain.It fits the game perfectly.Compared to other games on the console it is not overwhelming. Its very basic and fun.he is also worked on the music of Wii sports. im sorry this part is a little lacking, its just that totakas style is hard to explain. Dark area's always fit with totaka's style. the sound effects are great. Breacking a block feels satisying and fun because of the effect. also when the timer gets low you need to hurry and the sound supports that. Overall the music is great and unique and the sound effects are satisfying and fitting a 8/10

Addictiveness 7/10
This game can be super addicting. The game is huge (for a gameboy game) the controls are smooth and there is a lot to do. There are a loooooot of secrets you can discover. (i have not discovered all of them) There is a zone called space zone wich is a secret zone but it is one you need to advance in the game. The only issue with Addictiveness is ?that the game is too easy and gets boring.This is a game i will play again. The secrets keep it interesting. you will be satisfied when you find these secrets. When i found one wich im not gonna spoil it felt great. playing trough the levels is a lot of fun. Stomping on goomba's and also on some new enemies keep it fresh. The story is pretty good and making your way to wario's castle to kick his but is fun. overall the game is pretty addicting. however the game is very easy and gets boring if you have played the game for a long time. ?
Now let's talk about the controls they are smooth and are great. You have good control over mario and stomping an enemy is easy. The objective like most mario games is to get to the end of each level. And while the first super mario land had more in common with the first super mario bros on nes. This one has more in common with super mario bros 3. So if you like mario bros 3 you will probably like this one. I give the addictiveness a 7/10

Story 6/10
The story in this game is good.It takes place immedtiatly after super mario land 1. While mario was away in sarasa land wario put an evil spell. It brainwashed the inhabitants in to thinking that wario was their master and mario their enemy. This was because wario wanted mario's castle. Wario was always jealous of mario. Wario scattered all the 6 golden coins over the land now mario needs to get the golden coins back if he gets all of the 6 golden coins and if he defeats wario his castle will be his again. Better story then most of the mario games.In almost all of them it is bowser kidnaps princess mario needs to save her. Now this story is very unique (for a mario game that is) this is also the first time we ever saw Wario. At first a lot of people thought that wario was mario's brother but this is not true. Overall the story is something fresh (for a mario game) and a good story for a portable mario game. That was it for the story a 6/10

Depth 8/10
This game ?is BIG! (for a gameboy game) these are the zones hold on to your seats! Here we go.

tree zone
space zone?
macro zone
Pumpin zone
Mario zone
Turtle zone
Mario's castle

A lot huh. I cant say how many levels because that will take a 1000000000000 hours to read. there is a lot to do. secrets are cleverly hidden. A lot of the enemies of super mario world are here. The spin jump from mario world is also in this game. The fireball is back. But different then in the first mario land. It does not bounce of of blocks anymore and is like the ball in super mario world. Bells now count as a checkpoint. There is also at the end of each level a bell you can ring to play a bonus game. You can get 1 ups fireflower and a new powerup. Its a shame they did not use this powerup in any other game. It is a carrot. If you get it you can hover in the air. Overall there is a lot you can do in this game (for a gameboy game) i give the depth a 8/10.


Difficulty 3/10
This where the game falls short. It is too easy. The first mario land was hard but rewarding. If you have beaten this game. You adont feel rewarding,Because the game is to easy. While the last level is hard.If a game is hard its easy to explain but if a game is easy it is not easy to explain. There are not a lot of enemies wich are hard to dodge. And there are a lot of power ups. this game overall is to easy a 3/10


Memories 7/10
If you have not read my previous 2 reviews (wich you probably have not) this is new to you. This is were (if i have memories) the memories are talked about. I have one about this game.

So i just finished super mario land on an emulator (at age 9) i used save states because the game was kicking my butt. I got bored after i finished the first mario land and searched for another game i could play on the emulator. And i found Super mario land 2. My 9 year old heart started pumping so hard i could hear it. I screamed: HECK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. so i quickly asked my mom if i could download it. She was afraid that there was a virus so we had to check that. it took so long (probably only 5 minutes but for a 9 year old that is 5 hours). There was no virus. So i could download it i put it on the emulator and i played the game the whole day. And guess what i did not save states. Anyway that were the memories.



OVERALL 8.5/10
This is a great game that you need to check out if your a mario fan. Controls are smooth. There is a lot to do and it is just plain fun. ?So i say check it out!
