The player plays as [[Mario]], he can move left and right, climb up and down ladders, and jump over obstacles. [[Donkey Kong]] attempts to kill Mario by throwing obstacles at him, in [[25m]], he throws barrels, some containing [[Fireball (Donkey Kong)|fireballs]] that break open when they touch the [[Oil drum]] at the start of level. Mario can jump over them which gives him points, but he can also find hammers in some levels that he can use to kill the obstacles, giving more points than if they were jumped over. If Mario dies in some way (touching a barrel, falling off a platform, etc.), he will lose a life and losing all lives will give a [[Game Over]]. Each level also has a timer which goes down until it reaches 0, which also causes Mario to lose a life. Once Mario reaches the platform [[Lady]] is standing on, the level will be completed and it continues onto the next level. | The player plays as [[Mario]], he can move left and right, climb up and down ladders, and jump over obstacles.
