CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Hearkening back to the heyday of Nintendo, this game faithfully reproduces the classic Super Mario Bros. Although Mario Forever's graphics and sound aren't identical to those of the original, they're so close most users familiar with the game won't be able to differentiate.
The basic platformer action hasn't changed either. As the feisty little plumber Mario, you traverse different worlds to collect coins while dodging enemies such as malevolent mushrooms and ill-tempered turtles. You won't find an extensive feature set, but you can at least change the keyboard controls or disable the music and sound effects.
However, we do think Mario Forever consumes a bit too much processor time, especially considering its outdated design. But if you were a fan of the 1980s classic Super Mario Bros., then we doubt this freebie will disappoint you.
Publisher's description
From Softendo Free Mario Games :Super Mario Forever is really a classic Mario remake. Once again you strap on your wrench and hardhat and guide the chubby plumber through many skillfully made levels. The diversity of the levels is very impressive. You will have to get through levels ranging from underwater caverns to levels filled with hot lava.
Version 4.4 features additional options in window menu and adds check points to all levels in normal campaign.

Version: Super Mario Bros 3 : Mario Forever 4.4
"Great game, some minor glitches though"
Pros: Very fun recreation of the old game. I love how all the levels are new though, but with the same types of elements and enemies. Love how they made Bowser harder to kill. Great new challenge.
Cons: Some minor annoying glitches
-Sometimes jumping on an enemy kills you instead of the enemy.
-Hitting Escape key ends your game without any warning of losing progress
-One level is impossible to beat unless you begin with FireballsSummary: Its free so I really can't complain
