Impressions
Gameplay
10 / 10
Its gameplay is very well done (as I said before). Coins that drops when you kill an enemy, vine climbing, vertical scrooling, mega mushrooms and clever bosses. All them plays astoundingly well. So, 10 here.
 
Graphics
7 / 10
The sprites, unfortunately, aren't the best. They're pillowshaded (like wiggler's) and don't match very well. The platforms are outlined, but the moving sprites (Mario, enemies) don't. Also, Mario is SMB-styled while some enemies are SMW-styled.But the background matches with the mood of the level, so I'm going to give it a 7.
 
Sound
9 / 10
Ahh. Sounds. They are the game's soul.In this game, the musics (in MIDI file) fits very good and don't get very repetitive (there are remixes to keep it different).But being a MIDI, it contains several tracks that has been in other games (like, death music). Also, it contains some non-Mario musics (like Starfox's and Metroid's) that breaks the routine. So, I give it a 9.
 
Replay
8 / 10
There are a lot of secrets to find, and the possibility to play as Luigi. But the lack of save points make the game a bit frustrating.So, an 8 here.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
This is the kind of fan game we can enjoy and play.G WorX has a reason to be very proud.
