Quick notes
- The brothers have separate real-world buttons. Mario’s A and Luigi’s B inputs govern jumping and battle timing; the enemy’s target tells you which to press.
- Dreamy Luigi changes the battle format. In dreams he merges with Mario rather than taking a normal independent turn, enabling attacks against larger enemy groups.
- Starlow works on the sleeping Luigi. Touch interactions on the lower screen affect the dream landscape.
- Dreambert explains Pi’illo rescues. Petrified Pi’illos link exploration to dream challenges.
