Mario and Luigi: Parteners in Time is a great game that took me ages to complete, you play as Baby Mario, Baby Luigi and their older selfs Mario and Luigi to save Princess Peach... yet again I know, who has been captured by aliens in a really fun and far fetched story where you battle aliens invading earth to save the day, (Bowser must have had a day off, though he does make an apperance in the game :P). The brothers must travel back in time to catch the aliens in action, hense how they meet their younger selfs.

This is generally an RPG (role play game) where you gain points and levels to make your health, damage and power points increase as you play the game and defeat aliens, leveling up gives you more of a chance when you are battleing boss aliens and the final Princess Alien who has ordered the attack on earth and the Mario Brothers and also kidnaped poor defenseless Princess Peach.

The story in this game, however common the concept may be, contains lots of twists and mishaps, it really is a great game and gives you that "what will happen next?" effect.

I bought this game for £30 which was a great price for such a rare game to come by, you will have to take a real hard look in Game to find it, as it isnt really the best advertised game or most well known, though it is still a great buy and has got loads of interesting game play in it.

The graphics in the game are cartoony, as you will expect in most DS games as the DS doesnt support that great of graphics, as I have said in most other DS game reviews that I have wrote I like the fact that the cartoony element is kept in the Mario games, as it keeps them from losing their charm in my opinion.

I reccommend this game to all RPG and Mario fans, its a great game with lots of twists and a great story in it, though beware it can get really addictive.
