Item Description

Luigi spent years as Player 2, and Mario Is Missing! is where he finally got top billing. Bowser has captured Mario and holed up in a castle in Antarctica, where his scheme is every bit as ridiculous as it sounds: melt the polar ice with an army of hair dryers and flood the world. It falls to Luigi to set things right, and the way he does it is unlike any other Mario game on the Super Nintendo.

This is an educational adventure rather than a platformer. Bowser's Koopa Troopas have spread out across real cities around the world and made off with famous artifacts, and Luigi has to track them down, recover the stolen treasures and return them to their rightful places. Picking up facts about each city along the way is the whole point, and the game is built to make kids curious about landmarks they might otherwise only see in an atlas. Think of it as geography class wearing a Mushroom Kingdom costume.

Developed by The Software Toolworks and published by Mindscape in 1993, it belongs to the short, strange stretch when Mario was licensed out to other companies for edutainment. Players tend to remember it as a curiosity rather than a classic, and that is a big part of its charm today: it captures a moment when Mario turned up in classrooms and computer labs as often as on living room TVs.

For Mario collectors, this cartridge fills a slot that many libraries leave empty, and it makes a great conversation piece shelved next to the mainline games. It is also the first step on Luigi's long road to headlining his own adventures, a bit of history that later Luigi's Mansion fans can appreciate.
