[. . . ] Choose Yes to send the demo, and wait until the upload is complete. Player receiving the demo (no Game Card required): When the download is complete, you will see this title screen. HINTS SCOUT OUT THE LEVEL BEFORE YOU START The timer does not begin until you move Color Blocks or move a Mini Mario. Be sure to scout out the level by scrolling the screen in any direction that an arrow is pointing before you get started. PLAY THROUGH LEVELS AGAIN AND AGAIN You can return to levels you have already cleared. Keep trying until you can save all the Mini Marios and find all of the Mini Mario Cards and coins. YOUR SCORE AND THE COLOR OF YOUR STAR To get a high score, you need to save as many Mini Marios as you can in as little time as possible. Finding coins and saving a Gold Mini Mario (page 21) also adds to your score, as does getting chains and nonstop victories. A chain occurs when two or more Mini Marios reach the goal in quick succession. A nonstop occurs when you lead a Mini Mario to the goal without stopping him. Being stopped by elevators or other mechanisms does not count against you. If you beat the score needed for each level, you can also earn a star (page 17). Stars come in bronze , silver , and gold . 23 PLAYING THE DEMO VERSION Once the download is complete, you can play the demo version.
