I don't get why this game gets so much hate. Sure, it deviates from the SMB formula, but it's still an incredibly fun game, behind SMB 1, 3 and SMW. I've never played it on NES, but I do remember playing this on Super Mario All Stars on the SNES. It was a nice break from the high paced timed games. I also remember completing it and being disappointed at the "it was all a dream" ending. Still, it was an enjoyable game despite its difference from the other games.

Thank you for the spoiler.

My bad. I considered covering it with the Spoiler tag, but I thought it would be futile since it was a 27 year old game.

It's technically not really a Mario game as Mario characters were reskins added to the western version, the game is actually Doki Doki Panic while Lost Levels was actually SMB2, it's an ok game but nothing spectacular. The only thing it's really remembered for is being different to other Mario games of the time.



A childhood gem. Its alot better than actual SMB2



I actually think it's better than both the original and Lost Levels!

The main reason game sucks is that you can't save your progress EVER! You have to finish it in one run.



I own it but have never gotten past the desert stage I believe. Didnt like it. I'd love to give it a second chance though

Great game. Level design manages to reward exploration, which wouldn't be seen again in Mario for years.

Toad is the best character.

Screw toad. Princess peach was God in that game! Levitation always felt like I was cheating without a game genie.





I thought it was a nice twist to the series, but I still prefer the original and 3.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

It's honestly my second favorite 2D Mario after Super Mario World, to be honest.

I thought I was alone in this world.  Sure it's not technically even supposed to be a mario game, but it's arguably had a bigger impact on the mario universe than any other game in the series.
