Mario's Game Gallery

Mario's Fundamentals, originally released as Mario's Game Gallery, is a compilation game in the Mario franchise. It was published by Interplay Entertainment and developed by Presage Software Inc. for PCs running Microsoft Windows. Exclusively for the United States, it was first released in 1995. In 1998, Mindscape re-released the game with a new title. Later, a version for Macintosh computers was published by Stepping Stone.
Five traditional games are included: checkers, backgammon, Go Fish, dominoes, and "Yahtzee", known in the game as "Yacht". Players play against Mario in these games, but sometimes they also play against Bowser. The games are very similar to the real-life versions, but pieces are changed to look like things from the Mario universe.
Both versions of the game received a mixed reception. When it was first released, various publications found it to be a good educational game. The Miami Herald praised it for "providing fun for the whole family", and the Los Angeles Times said that it would appeal to younger gamers.
