Mario’s head shows
where you are on the
current course. The
farther you go to the
right, the closer you are
to the course goal.
This is how many points
you’ve earned so far.
You gain points by
breaking blocks and
defeating enemies.
This shows how many
Star Coins you’ve
collected on the current
course. All courses have
three Star Coins.
If Mario picks up an item
when he’s powered up
( Page 22), the item goes
into your reserve spot on
the Touch Screen. To use
the item, simply tap it to
make it drop onto
the action screen.

Not all courses have midway points
If Mario falls in a pit,
gets hit by an enemy,
etc, he’ll lose a life. If he
loses all of his lives, it’s
game over. ( Page 15)
If you don't reach the
course goal before
time runs out, you'll
lose a life. ( Page 15)lose a life. ( Page 15)
When you reach a midway point on a course, a flag will appear on the
action screen, and the midway point will appear on your progress bar.
If you replay the course, you’ll start from the midway point. However,
if you play another course and then return to this course, you’ll have
to start from the beginning.
Every course has a goal at the end. When you reach the end of a course,
face the pole and jump as high as you can. The higher Mario grabs on to
the pole, the more points you’ll earn.
Getting whacked by enemies and falling in pits
makes Mario lose a life. If Mario loses all his lives,
your game ends, and you’ll have to start from your
last saved point. If this happens, choose either
Continue or Quit.
