[edit] Features
[edit] Levels
Being a remake of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, The Lost Levels DX contains levels that are mostly identical to the original. However, a few extra levels like Toad Houses and Peach's Castle have been included.
[edit] Overworld
The original Lost Levels did not have an overworld, so a new overworld has been created for this hack. Warp Zones could not be implemented exactly as they were in the original, so they are actually secret exits that lead to shortcuts on the overworld.
[edit] Graphics
This hack's graphics are mostly from Super Mario Bros. 3 and a few other games in Super-Mario All-Stars.
[edit] Technical
The game features a few technical modifications to make it feel more like a remake. For example, Goombas die after a single hit rather than having carryable properties, and the Level Names hack is implemented to replicate a similar feature in The Lost Levels.
[edit] Plot
The Lost Levels DX's plot is, as one would expect, the same as the original: Bowser has kidnapped Princess Peach, and it's up to Mario and Luigi to travel to Bowser's Castle and rescue the princess.
[edit] Reception
Comments on The Lost Levels DX has been mostly positive. The fact that it's a remake, though, means that most of its level design and plot can't be commented on, and its rating on SMW Central has stayed around 7.
