HERE’S HOW TO PLAY
STEP 1: Get started!
To start a game immediately after turning on your Video Computer System™,
just press the Red Button on your controller. To play another game, press Game
Reset.
To activate Mario and start action, press the Red Button.
STEP 2: Making it to the top.
When the first of your three Marios appears on the ramps, try to get him to
the top to save his girlfriend. If Mario is hit by a barrel, he is eliminated.
Climb the unbroken ladders to reach the next ramp! Mario cannot climb broken
ladders.
STEP 3: Hammer away!
If Mario jumps up and grabs the hammer, he can face the barrels and hit them
for extra points. But if the hammer misses and the barrel hits Mario, he’s
eliminated! And remember — he can’t climb ladders with the hammer, arid the
hammer disappears in a few seconds.
STEP 4: How time flies…
The Score/Bonus Indicator shows your bonus ‘‘counting down.”’ Watch out! If it
reaches zero, Mario is eliminated!
STEP 5: Success or failure?
If you make it to the top of the ramps, the remaining bonus is added to your
score and you move on to the rivet screen. But if you fail, Mario is
eliminated.
STEP 6: Ariveting mission.
Mario must remove all the rivets to save his girlfriend. To remove a rivet,
Mario runs or jumps over it — and it disappears!
STEP 8: Hurrah!
When you have removed all the rivets, the game continues to alternate between
the two screens — but the action gets harder as you go! Keep playing until you
run out of Marios.
While you control Mario, the Score/Bonus Indicator shows your bonus counting
down. Between screens and at game end, your score is displayed.
| Starting Bonus Value (each screen): | 5000 points |
|---|---|
| Jumping a barrel or fireball: | 100 points |
| Eliminating a rivet: | 100 points |
| Smashing a barrel or fireball: | 800 points |
The player receives three Marios per game.
