Think back to the first time you played a Mario game. Remember stomping your first Goomba? Remember being amazed when Mario touched that Mushroom and grew bigger? Remember miscalculating your jump and falling down that pit? Er, well... remember how much fun you had while playing? This site's goal is to bring you accurate, in-depth coverage about every Mario game, without ruining the fun of them. We strongly recommend playing through the games as far as you can with no assistance. If you do get stuck, there are guides to refer to, or you can mail us. Before e-mailing, please refer to the frequently asked questions to see if your question has been answered already.

Enjoy the site. Thank you for stopping by!
