	Video games - Mario's Cement Factory

Mario's Cement Factory was a game made in the 1980's for the Game and Watch handheld series. The game was released in the Game & Watch widescreen and tabletop versions, as well as the Mini-Classics series in 1998 (a set of four Game & Watch games ported to small keychain-bound handhelds).

Gameplay

In this game, the player assumes the role of Mario, working in a cement factory. The player must empty cement from the hoppers into the cement trucks below. A conveyor belt at the top moves cement into hoppers which can only hold three loads at a time. An alarm sounds when one is full. To get around one uses elevators in the center of the screen. If the player moves to the center when an elevator isn't Mario falls to the bottom and loses a life. Losing a life can also occur if one stays on the elevator too long, in which case Mario will either fall or get smashed.
