Running from police, killing evil snowmen, pretty much everything you would never expect to fit in a Mario game, but MarioDragmire made it fit.
 
Pros +Great story
+Fun, un-Mario events
+Nice cutscences
+Fun gameplay
+Good collisions
 
Cons -Difficulty
-Minor glitches
 
Impressions
Gameplay
8 / 10
Overall, the gameplay is very nice. While it may seem dissapointing that there are no turn-based battles, the fighting enemies is still very well done. It almost feels like a mix between platform fighting and rpg fighting. Most collisions work well with the acception of a few minor glitches. The only factor that hurts gameplay is the difficulty. You would think once you complete sneaking from the police, the annoying difficulty is over, but then you have to go through a VERY frustrating and difficult car race, and then after that there are the snowmen in Antarctica who will show no mercy. Overall, its an annoyingly difficult game.
 
Graphics
9 / 10
The graphics are very nice. Everything matches the SMRPG style. The scenes are nicely set up and decorated. Everything seems to run smoothly and really feel like a professional game. There really are only a couple of glitches where scenery appears in front of a character when it shouldn't.
 
Sound
10 / 10
The sounds are all perfectly programmed. There are great sound effects that all fit well and happen at the right times, and the music is very catchy. Overall, great sounds.
 
Replay
7 / 10
There is a very good chance of replaying this game. The only downside is you'll have to go through annoying difficult parts like the sneaking. Other than that, the replay isn't awful, but toning down the difficulty would help it a bit.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
Definately one of the better games on MFGG. Beautiful scenery and cutscenes, great gameplay, and MarioDragmire perfectly put everything you would expect not to see in a good Mario game into a great one. The score is actually an 8.5, but that rounds up to a 9.

Me on the other hand i was very pleased by the real-time battles instead of turn-based battles.

I hope you saw the different dreams (=

Russian Mario World
A Link to the Past
Dr. Mega Man

And the cheat code out of ZekeWars
