This game is really hard to rare, but I'm going to try and avoid my bias as someone that loves the mario series
While this is a platformer from the mid 80s, this game holds up pretty well today. However, where the game struggles (like hitboxes / rng movement), makes losing EXTREMELY frustrating - especially with the life system where, if you lose, you have to go back to the beginning.
Saying this, if you are already proficient at platforming, the majority of the game is pretty easy. I'd say the main challenges come from world 7 and ESPECIALLY world 8. I reckon 75% of my time spent playing this game was in the last few levels. But the difficulty made winning the game that much more gratifying.
The game is colourful, music is decent but repetitive, sound effects are OK.
Just glad to be done with it
