Game Overview

Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix lets you boogie down with Mario in his own dance party! Someone has stolen the Music Keys and released the music they held. Mario must recover the keys before the unstable power of music destroys the entire Mushroom Kingdom! The path to the keys is simple: Dance your way to them!

The Good

The story mode is often hilarious, Almost visually on par with traditional Mario platformers, Story mode serves as a good introduction to DDR newcomers, Some great and much-needed revisions to the DDR gameplay.

The Bad

Way too easy, even on super hard mode, Story mode is too short, The higher difficulty levels aren't immediately selectable, Song quality isn't consistent, especially in non-Mario tracks.

The Bottom Line

Boogie down with Mario, DDR-style. Players shake their things to more than 25 dance-flavored songs, from classic Nintendo themes to familiar favorites. With five difficulty levels, dancers of all abilities will be able to get into the groove. Have fun getting in shape! The special "Workout" feature tracks the calories burned while playing. Someone has stolen the Music Keys and released the music they held. Without the Music Keys, the unstable power of the music is wreaking havoc on the land. Mario must recover them before the chaos destroys the entire Mushroom Kingdom! The path to the keys is simple: Left, Right, Up, Down, Right, Down... In Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, players clear levels by performing the correct steps. Once they clear all the levels in a particular world, they'll collect a Music Key. Collect all the Music Keys to win.

With a short story mode that serves as a fun, linear introduction to sequential stomping, Mario Mix is suitable for a child, or for an uncoordinated friend.

Nintendo fans will love it. A full Mushroom Kingdom-themed storyline sets up dance-offs with Nintendo music remixes and mascot mini-games.
