FAQ About Mario

If Mario runs out of lives in most Mario games, he typically experiences a "game over" scenario. The specific consequences may vary slightly depending on the game, but here's a general overview:

• Game Over Screen: When Mario loses all his lives, the game will display a "game over" screen. This screen usually features a message indicating the player's failure and prompts them to either restart from the beginning or continue from a saved point, depending on the game's save system.
• Restarting from a Checkpoint or Level Start: In some Mario games, players may have the option to continue the game from a checkpoint or the start of the level where they lost their last life. This allows them to retry the level and continue their progress.
• Restarting from the Beginning: In other Mario games, if Mario runs out of lives, the player is sent back to the beginning of the game or a specific section, requiring them to replay from the start. The player will need to progress through the levels again to reach the point where they lost their lives.
• Losing Progress: Running out of lives typically means losing progress made in the current level or section of the game. Any collected power-ups, coins, or other items acquired during that playthrough will be lost, and the player will have to start again from an earlier point.
