Super Mario Bros. 2: Super Mario Bros. Wart's Wonderland

Super Mario Bros. Wart's Wonderland version 1.1
by Rohbert


Super Mario Bros. Wart's Wonderland is a romhack of Super Mario Bros. 2 USA for NES. Created by Rohbert, it is meant to be a Holiday Season themed hack for experienced SMB2 players. It is more difficult than vanilla SMB2 but not as hard as other SMB2 hacks. Princess and Luigi will have an easier time completing the levels, where as Toad and Mario will struggle a bit more. Graphics created by BMF54123 and Rohbert.

This hack features 10 original levels all with unique custom holiday theme sprites. There is 1 warp that is required and therefore all 10 levels must always be played. All 10 levels contain 2 power up mushrooms and a one-up. Each level features a unique color palette. All levels are complete-able with all characters. You begin with 9 lives and 5 continues.

Good luck!

---Tips---
* If you ever lose a key, you can re-spawn it in its original spot if you simply walk 2-3 screen away and come back.
* If a hawkmouth exit despawns, you can simply walk 2-3 screen away and come back and it will respawn and even open if you already grabbed the orb.
* Collecting 5 cherries will spawn a power star. This will be very useful in certain levels.
* All levels have 2 power-up mushrooms. (Highly recommended to collect them)
* Power-up mushrooms will always be close to where you find the potion. Just throw the potion where you found it)
* In general, Luigi and Princess will have an easier time getting through the levels, with Mario being slightly harder, and Toad having the hardest time due to his low jump height.
*Birdo eggs can be ridden to cross large gaps...
