Mario is Missing! (1993)
Bowser sets up a castle in Antarctica, and plans to use many hair dryers from Hafta Havit, a mail order company, to melt Antarctica's ice and flood Earth. He sends Koopas to cities across Earth to steal artifacts to fund his operation. Mario, Luigi and Yoshi travel to Bowser's castle to stop him. Luigi is hesitant to go in, so Mario goes by himself and is kidnapped by Bowser, prompting Luigi to rescue him. (wikipedia)

As a kid, I wanted this *so* much, and I'm *so* glad I didn't get it. This is a Carmen Sandiego ripoff, but far less interesting; instead of using geography to chase bad guys, you use it to answer trivia, because guards won't believe you have the *real* ceiling of the Sistine Chapel unless you tell them what city they're in. The gameplay is repetitive, every city has four white people and one black person, and the graphics are memetically bad. There's 20 minutes of ironic fun in here, no more.

I actually liked and played through this game to the end. Even as a trivia nut who loves history, there were new landmarks I learned about, including those in nearby San Francisco. (Shout-outs to Coit Tower and the Transamerican Pyramid) Obviously, slapping on the Mario sticker on an edutainment game was deceptive and disappointed a great many people back in the day, but judged on its own merits, it's a fun, colorful way to learn about fascinating locations around the world.

I rented this back in the day so excited for a sequel to Super Mario World. It was not a sequel to Super Mario World.

I beat this game and I'm not ashamed to admit it. What I am ashamed of is that I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Every single one of us has wasted a weekend NES/SNES rental on this travesty. Nothing worse than edutainment. Soul crushing. Games like this are why people have trust issues.
