For the first six levels within each world, Mario must find a key and open up a door to the second half of the level, which is a [[checkpoint]]. There, Mario will find the toy that Donkey Kong dropped. If Mario loses a life in the second half of the level, his points reset back to the way it was in the first half of the level. At the beginning of each level, there is short sequence showing what Mario needs to do or what he may face before playing the level. This short sequence also explains what moves Mario needs to use to complete the level, showing some button combinations. | ||
Unlike other ''Mario'' games, when Mario takes a hit, he loses a life. He can also lose a life from getting squished and falling on from a great height and landing on his head. If the fall is not big enough, Mario may get stunned on his back instead. There is also a time limit, which is similar to the traditional ''Super Mario Bros.'' games; if the time limit is highlighted on 30 seconds, an alarm plays and Mario panics. If the time limit runs out, the screen will say "Time's Up!!" and Mario loses a life. When Mario grabs the key and opens a locked door, the remaining time in the first area will be added to the time limit in the second area. | Unlike other ''Mario'' games, when Mario takes a hit, he loses a life.
