Best iOS Mario Clone – Lars Lite Review

Its easy to see where the inspiration for Lars came from. From its coins to its enemies, the game is a perfect clone of the original Super Mario Bros. games. The art style, however, is a completely original and refreshing twist on the classic. Being a fan of pixel art, I loved the retro themed graphics. The developers throw in a few other twists in the typical platforming formula as well. Lars also has a slightly different control scheme than the original SMB. Rather than the normal D-Pad, a slider is introduced. This setup takes a bit to get used to, but once you do, it is a flawless way to move the lizard character around the levels. Overall, I recommend this game to anyone looking to play a Mario-like game on their iPad or iPhone.
