'''Magnet Mania''' is the fourth floor in  ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. This floor introduces [[Magnet Ground]], [[Magnetic Block]]s, and [[Magnet Rod|Rotating Magnet Stick]]s, which allow [[Mini]]s to walk on them in any direction, including on walls and upside down. The floor's background features a system of connected pipes and a sewer grate which lets in light. The level themes on this floor are arrangements of the "[[Underground Theme]]" from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''

'''Magnet Mania''' is the fourth floor in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. The walls in this area are magnetic, allowing [[Mini Mario (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)|Mini Mario]]s to walk on them.  All three tunes are remixes of the [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] theme from the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''


New enemies in this area are [[Cool Kong]]s and [[Spark]]s. Magnets make their first appearance in this floor allowing Minis to walk up them. [[Donut Block]]s also appear which obviously fall when stepped on. [[Swing Bar]]s are also found which are used to fling minis into the air.
Upon completing Boss Game 4, the Magnet Mania construction kit is unlocked for the [[Construction Zone]]. After being defeated in Boss Game 4, Donkey Kong flees to [[Lava Dome]].

==New Obstacles==
===Magnetic Blocks===
[[Magnetic Block]]s are like the [[Pink Block]]s that can be picked up and dropped in certain areas. However, the Mini Marios can stick on these and walk sideways and up-side-down. Only a certain amount of Magnetic Blocks can be placed on the course at one time, so the player might have to erase some to make more somewhere else.
 
===Swing Bar===
Mini Marios can jump on [[Swing Bar]]s (by sliding up on the touch screen). Then the player must spin the wheel on the side. Once the Marios are spinning fast enough, the player can slide up on the screen and make them jump high into the air. Mini Marios can also climb across these to get closer to the goal without falling of the course. To get off a swing bar, the player needs to slide down on the touch screen.
 
===Magnet Stick===
The Mini Marios can walk on the [[Magnet Stick]] sideways or up-side-down since it is metal. When the Marios are on, the player can spin the wheel at the end end flip the Mini Mario to the other side of the bar. This can be useful to get in closed areas and avoid enemies.
 
===Donut Blocks===
When a Mini Mario goes on a [[Donut Block]], the block will glide downwards because of the extra weight. If the Mini Mario doesn't jump off fast enough, it will fall into spikes and break. Donut Blocks can let the Mini Mario glide down and reach a lower area that couldn't be accessed without the blocks.

Magnet Mania is the fourth floor in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis. This floor introduces Magnet Ground, Magnetic Blocks, and Rotating Magnet Sticks, which allow Minis to walk on them in any direction, including on walls and upside down. The floor's background features a system of connected pipes and a sewer grate which lets in light. The level themes on this floor are arrangements of the "Underground Theme" from Super Mario Bros.

Swing Bars are introduced on this floor in Room 4-2, and can be used to help Minis navigate certain areas and to fling them upwards into the air. Donut Blocks are also introduced on this floor, appearing only in Room 4-8 and Boss Game 4. They fall when a Mini walks over them, similarly to their appearance in other Super Mario games. Newly introduced enemies on this floor are Cool Kongs and Magnet Sparkies, while Piranha Plants, Shy Guys, and Thwomps return from previous floors.

Upon completing Boss Game 4, the Magnet Mania construction kit is unlocked for the Construction Zone. After being defeated in Boss Game 4, Donkey Kong flees to Lava Dome.
