Have you heard about Mario VS Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem? It’s a new platform strategy game for Nintendo DS which sees a classic videogame rivalry reignited – Mario VS Donkey Kong!

That big oafish gorilla, Donkey Kong, decides to kidnap Mario’s girlfriend, Pauline, and it’s up to you and Mario to rescue her by guiding dozens of miniature Mario toys through challenging, puzzle-riddled environments, as well as help them cross gaps in the levels and reach higher areas by drawing bridges, ladders, springs and blocks into the world with your DS stylus.

Strategy is important in Mario VS Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem, so before the beginning of every level you’ll be able to assess the lay of the ‘land’ and plan out your actions – once the mini Marios are activated, they can’t be stopped!

You can see Mario VS Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem in motion with the debut teaser trailer, and also check out another set of screenshots, below:
