New Super Mario Game Involves Stacking Hats

Epoch released a Super Mario toy that has you stacking the various characters’ hats on a tower, which you can adjust for difficulty if needed. The toy costs 1980 JPY ($13.55) after tax in Japan, and you can play it with up to four people. The Super Mario cap stacker toy comes with twelve cards, eight caps, a stand, and a bottom for the stand. If you want to make it a challenge, you can flip the bottom of the stand to make the tower wobbly, which will make it harder to adjust, move, or place the hats on the tower. Epoch offers three ways to play the game. The simplest way is to place hats on the tower depending on which card you pull. For example, if you pull a Wario card, you have to place Wario’s hat on the stand, and if you knock over the tower, you lose. The second way to play is to set the tower to wobbly mode and take turns putting hats on the tower. Whoever manages to stack the most before they topple over wins. Finally, the third way is similar to Twister in that all players draw cards, and take turns using their cards to direct another player to place the hat on the tower. The difficulty of the game seems to come from the shapes of the hats. The guys’ hats have a wide top and a smaller bottom, which means they don’t fit together well. Meanwhile, the girls have crowns. So it looks like there will be some measure of strategy in the game from the order in which you place the hats. The Super Mario hat stacker toy is available in Japan. You can check out some other toys that are based on Super Mario from this list here. The post New Super Mario Game Involves Stacking Hats appeared first on Siliconera.
