New endless fun. For those who love our hero Mario, the new Mario Vs. Donkey Kong: March of the Minis offers 8 themes and 80 different stages of difficult tasks directing more action at the Minis and less at old Mario. The Story: King Kong kidnaps Pauline, who he loves very much but unfortunately the feeling isn't mutual, because she prefers the Mini Mario over the Mini DK. Your mission is to reach the top floor of the theme park where she waits like a regular "damsel in distress" to be rescued.

It is up to you to prove how steady of hand you are, using the touchscreen stylus, and how fast you can defeat Sidekicks, Mummy Guy and Snap Claw, who will not rest and will make it difficult for you to reach the next level. Of course, let's not forget Donkey Kong himself who now has Crash Kong and Capture Kong as means of making it hard for the Mini Marios.

A new gameplay feature is added as you can challenge your friends in your very own stages as well as stages created by others which can be downloaded using the Friend Code System.

Classic obstacles like deadly water or molten lava are sure to be found and your only escape will be with the quickest of reactions at what lays ahead.

At a price of around ?30, Mario Vs Donkey Kong: March of the Minis hits the stores on 9th March 2007 all across Europe, making an entrance worthy of its name and of the platform it is available on.

If you love a challenge and have lots of time to kill, you can't make a better choice.
