The player assumes the role of Mario, the series' main character, in super mario bros. The second player plays Mario's younger brother, Luigi, in the game's multiplayer mode, who does the same tasks and serves the same plot goals as Mario. The goal is to save Princess Toadstool by racing across the Mushroom Kingdom while evading Bowser's primary adversaries. To get to the flagpole at the end of each level, the player must go from the left to the right side of the screen.
