Tuper Tario Tros. is a flash game first released on Newgrounds on December 24, 2009 by the developer SwingSwing. It is a combination of Super Mario Bros. and Tetris, using mechanics from both games. The title of this game is a play on Super Mario Bros., replacing the first letter of each word with the "T" from Tetris. This game features only Super Mario level 1-1.[1][2]

Gameplay

The game starts out with normal Super Mario Bros.[3] 2D platformer gameplay. After a short while however, the player is granted the ability to control Tetrimino blocks across the field of play.[4] The falling blocks, that fall from a lakitu, can be stacked and become platforms which the player can use to make Mario cross large gaps or reach higher terrain.[5] Pressing the spacebar will change between modes, either controlling Mario or controlling the falling blocks.[6] The screen moves automatically forward to the right, and the player cannot go backwards.
