Original cover description
Mario and Luigi, the best plumbers in the world, have a real job on their hands. A host of characters have taken over the sewers, and the brothers must clear them out of the pipes, but don’t lose your footing on those slippery floors. Play as a team, or against each other; either way you’re in for a scream with Mario and Luigi – the MARIO BROS.
