A Nintendo-licensed, Super Mario-themed version of Hasbro's popular block-stacking dexterity game Jenga, with some added twists. Players choose to play as Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, or Toad, taking a character peg with that character on and slotting it into blocks near the base of the tower. Each turn, a player uses the spinner to determine how many layers up the tower their character peg can climb, and how many blocks they have to remove from the tower and stack on top of it. Blocks are marked with symbols that may cause players to gain or lose coins. Coins can also be gained from climbing the tower or defeating Bowser, who begins at the top of the tower and has to be beaten by climbing past him. The game ends when someone collapses the tower, at which point the player with the most coins wins.
