Story
The game begins with an average day in the Mushroom Kingdom. This is soon changed when Kamek drops off some fliers inviting Mario and the gang to a get-together at Bowser's Castle to have dinner. However, once there Bowser and Bowser Jr. entrap everyone behind bars and shrink them to the size of chess pieces; they seek five powerful crystals and shrink down the crew so they can’t stop them. They are then dropped off by sack in the middle of a neighborhood which leads them to the first board, Wiggler's Garden. Each of the tiny heroes wants to be the one and only Superstar that brings down King Bowser; from there on out it's everyone for themselves. Once they beat the last board, Donkey Kong comes in for dinner, and accidently smashes Bowser's staff. They are all back to normal size- and fight bowser. After they tie up Bowser and Bowser Jr, they combine the last peice of the crystal, which combines into a Crystal DS. They all are happy and the credits roll.
