Is it still worth playing?

Mario or Luigi rescues Princess Peach from Bowser, jumping between platforms and avoiding enemies and obstacles. It is a 1986 platformer for the Famicom Disk System, called Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan. Secrets such as backwards Warp Zones and vertical vines are hidden along the way, and power-ups include the Mushroom, the Fire Flower and the Invincibility Star. The game introduces obstacles such as the Poison Mushroom, counterproductive level warps and mid-air wind gusts. Luigi has slower acceleration and a higher jump, while Mario accelerates faster and jumps lower. There is no two-player mode, and the player chooses between Mario and Luigi at the title screen. It has 32 levels across eight worlds, plus 20 bonus levels. A harder run through eight worlds is still a challenge that draws players to it.
