General Commentary and Game Overview
Miles has outdone himself with this game.
Bringing out the concept of playing as a coin of all things, trying to keep from being collected, and having a bunch of Marios and Luigis killing each other trying to collect you.

You score points by possessing one of the bros and using them to beat up the others,
the more points you get, the harder the game gets, until you are inevitably collected.
 
Pros -Innovative gameplay
-Interesting use of characters
-Endless
-High replay value
-Really fitting music
-Small download size
-Anti Cheating system
-Good use of graphics
-Xbox360 controller support
-PS3 Controller support
-Various USB controller support
-BATBRO! :D
 
Cons -Endless (yeah, Pro AND Con, endless is both)
 
Impressions
Gameplay
10 / 10
Like most minigames, Gameplay starts off slow, and gradually speeds up, as you posses the bros and use them to beat up the others, more and more come at you, One thing I like about Endless minigames is that it just keeps getting faster and harder, the addition of the new Batbro mode was a lot of fun.

In the main game, if you can play things right, you can start a witch hunt within the bros.

Those who attempt to cheat are punished by being thrown from the game, to a "No Way!" screen. This mechanic helps keep the high score table fair, and based on the actual abilities of the players, and not some punk with a hack tool.
 
Graphics
10 / 10
I should say the graphics worked well, Using graphics from various mario games.

the Mario and Luigi sprites are recolored using mechanics in game, thus making the color combinations endless. They also possess a large list of customized animations.
 
Sound
10 / 10
The music fits with each level really well, especially excellent selections for the Winter area and Demonic Domain.
Derived from various games.

More importantly, though, is the voice acting, which is dead-on accurate.
"That-a Guy is Possessed!" among other quotes. A "Good Job!" to the voice actor man!
 
Replay
10 / 10
Hell, How do you STOP playing this game?
The gameplay, the graphics, the music, all of it. I love this game!
 
Final Words
10 / 10
Miles is not one to disappoint! He made an excellent game based around one of the Mario series' common inanimate objects. To top it off, this has to be one of the best games I've seen on MFGG.
