Mario Toy Company is the first world in Mario vs. Donkey Kong and its Nintendo Switch remake. This world takes place in an urban setting, featuring the main building of the eponymous company surrounded by its affiliated buildings and many apartment blocks. It is where the player is introduced to the game's controls and recurring gimmicks like Color Switches and ladders. Common enemies introduced in this world include Shy Guys, Oils, and Fireballs, while also featuring lesser-recurring enemies like Bucket Men, Wire Traps, and Brickmen.
Mario Toy Company is also the only playable world in the demo version of the remake, although it is only limited to a few selected levels: Level 1-1, Level 1-3, Level 1-5, and Level 1-mm. Completion of this world will immediately lead to the demo video which showcases the full version of the game. Notably, the name of the world is not displayed in the level select screen as it is replaced with the game's logo, but it can still be seen when pausing while in a level.
