Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "It's a dark time for the Mushroom Kingdom. King Koopa invaded the land and turned many of its citizens into blocks. Fearful for my life, I enlisted in the Koopa Troop but to my horror I have been sent to the front lines!" What game is it?
2. "I didn't know that King Koopa and Mario both had such fondness for acting. The Koopa Troop along with Mario's organization are mounting a full-scale theatrical production of Mario's adventures about rescuing Princess Peach from the clutches of King Koopa! We have a large cast of characters, including seven new members of the Koopa Troop called the Koopalings. I have a lot of screen time in the production, but my favorite part is riding in a new green shoe!" What game is it?
3. "I am so angry! Bowser is stationing the Koopa Troop on Dinosaur Island. He's up to his usual hijinks of kidnapping Princess Peach again. (Mario, Bowser, and Peach are in such a vicious repeating cycle!). Anyway, the Goomba battalion doesn't get to go to the lush and tropical Dinosaur Island because Bowser just signed up a bunch of new recruits. They call themselves Galoombas!" What game is it?
4. "Sometimes my main gig slows down and I have to pick up a side hustle. This particular job doesn't sound that bad: I'm on Koholint Island where there are monsters everywhere and some big bad named the Wind Fish that is asleep in an egg on top of a mountain. Maybe I'll even get to go to the beach! I've heard there's a strange owl that lives there." What game is it?
5. "Oh no! I've really done it this time! I made King Koopa mad! He looks . . . oddly human for some reason. He's putting me in this de-evolving machine as my punishment. Oh help me! I have a small dinosaur head now! Wait, Goombas aren't dinosaurs? What is happening to me?" What movie or TV show is it?
6. "So I've been watching that yellow walking cactus Pokey and got to thinking his height is a great way to defend ourselves against Mario. I've managed to convince a bunch of my fellow Goomba soldiers to make a Goomba Tower. Mario will never beat us now! Be quiet though and don't tell him . . . the Goomba Tower is a brand new strategy that he has never seen us use before!" What game is it?
7. "I am the Mystery Goomba! Untouchable! Unreachable! Nearly impossible to perceive! Only Mario at his most Eagle-eyed will even catch a glimpse of me for a few seconds! I am so well hidden that I went unknown to the world at large for decades! Where do I dwell?" What course or level is it?
8. "Sometimes I just don't get what's going on between Mario and Bowser. One day they are engaged in a life and death struggle of literally galactic proportions, and the next they are go-kart racing! Go-kart racing! And do I get race? No! I have to stand around as scenery in the crowd when the officials are handing out trophies to the winners!" What game event is it?
9. "It was so scary! A giant sword named Smithy fell from the sky, damaging Bowser's Keep! I went AWOL from the Koopa Troop, I was so afraid. I want to be good mother to my triplets, and I've even got a shop in a special quiet little town. Oh no! That's Bowser coming through the door of my shop! I'm going to have to explain myself to him! I can't even think of the town I live in, I'm so nervous!" What town is it?
10. "I had quite the adventurous youth! I travelled the world over with Koopa Koot and Bootler, but we are all so old now. I live in Goomba Village and have taken up carpentry. I was fixing the veranda on the house, but when Mario came to visit me the veranda collapsed and now I need his help to retrieve my Hammer so I can finish my repairs. I think I'll even go along with Mario to get back my Hammer and help him out. Maybe even relive some of my adventures!" Which Mario character is it?
