DS Critic Reviews

The gameplay is great fun and varies throughout with new themes, changing obstacles and introducing great new abilities for the minis at a carefully planned and gradual pace. It looks great, it sounds great and the WiFi functionality is a wonderful surprise that we're only used to seeing on the PSP.

One of the most addicting and entertaining games currently available on the Nintendo DS. The game makes great use of the touch screen (and your logical thinking skills).

Add in the two-player Wi-Fi option and what you've got here is a brilliant game, and one that is an absolute must for all DS owners. Quite simply: if you've got a DS, get this!

The story is told by fantastic cutscenes, fully voiced and animated to perfection.

A fun, challenging, and addictive game. The levels are short, and easily digestible, making this the perfect game to pick up and play for a few minutes on the go, while this very nature makes it difficult to put down.

As a sequel, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: March of the Minis surpasses the original by leaps and bounds backed by the capabilities of the Nintendo DS, however the new control scheme does take some getting used to.

The gameplay all revolves around the touch screen, and the puzzles and boss battles are interesting and well designed.

The new touch-screen controls, level creator, and colorful presentation make March of the Minis an even better puzzle game than its predecessor.

The relaxed pace is good for your blood pressure but it's not much of a challenge. [Mar 2007, p.78]

It's not the most challenging of games, but I think it's cute and very entertaining.
