'''''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!''''' is an action [[Genre#Puzzle|puzzle]] game for the [[Nintendo DS]]. It is the fourth game in the ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' series and a follow-up to ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!]]'' Notably, it is also the final ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' game released for the console, being released in North America on November 14, 2010, Japan and Taiwan on December 2, 2010, Australia on February 3, 2011, and Europe on February 4, 2011. The base gameplay and objectives of this game are mostly the same as in the previous titles, being centered on bringing all the [[Mini]] toys safely to the goal in each level. However, the gameplay is now focused on tracing paths and bridges for the Minis to use, more so than simply toggling blocks and buttons to determine their path as in the previous games. [[Mini Pauline]] toys make their debut with this game, joining the cast of Minis as the highlight of Mario's new theme park despite appearing late in the game as playable characters. Alongside the main game, a level editor is also present in a mode called the [[Construction Zone]], where players can design their own levels.

A significant feature of the game was its [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection|Wi-Fi]] compatibility, using the same system as in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. Every two weeks, Nintendo held challenge contests where the player could submit a level that was subsequently judged by other players, with the top-rated level being announced as a winner candidate at the end of a contest.

However, the service was terminated on May 20, 2014, rendering the game no longer playable online.


Most future titles in the series, such as ''[[Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move]]'' and ''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]'', would also feature this construction-based gimmick. A follow-up to ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'', ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars]]'', was released for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Wii U]] in March 2015.
