DESCRIPTION

The Mario brothers are trapped inside Bowser's bountiful body in this eccentric entry in the whimsical Mario & Luigi role-playing series. Two distinct storylines await players: one focusing on Bowser's dealings with arch-villain Fawful, and the other involving the trials and tribulations of the recently inhaled Mario and Luigi. Each story is displayed on its own screen, allowing you to switch between the narratives at any time. This leads to some unusual puzzle-solving scenarios, as the brothers help control Bowser's actions by working within his body, while Bowser assists the duo by doing things like drinking water to clear internal passageways. Characters will engage in battles with an assortment of offbeat enemies, with the combat system incorporating both the handheld's microphone and touch-screen interface. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
