Tuper Tario Tros. is a Flash platform video game first released on Newgrounds on December 24, 2009 by the French developer Swing Swing Submarine. It is a combination of Super Mario Bros. and Tetris, using mechanics from both games. The title of this game is a play on Super Mario Bros., replacing the first letter of each word with the "T" from Tetris. The game features Super Mario level 1-1.[1][2]
Gameplay[]
The game starts out with normal Super Mario Bros.[3] 2D platformer gameplay. After a short while however, the player is granted the ability to control Tetrimino blocks across the field of play.[4] The falling blocks, that fall from a Lakitu, can be stacked and become platforms which the player can use to make Mario cross large gaps or reach higher terrain.[5] Pressing the spacebar will change between modes, either controlling Mario or controlling the falling blocks.[6] The screen moves automatically forward to the right, and the player cannot go backwards.
Reception[]
Chris Donlan of Edge wrote that the game appeared to have been put together quickly and as a result, its gameplay was occasionally inelegant.[2] Jenni Lada of TechnologyTell appreciated how she could build a staircase to the flagpole at the end of the level.[6]
