Mini Mario & Friends: Amiibo Challenge is a puzzle video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. The game is free to download on the Nintendo eShop, but requires Nintendo's Amiibo lineup in order to play; if the player has a unrecognized Amiibo, the game will put in Mini Spek instead of the Amiibo the person puts on the Wii U Gamepad. The "Mini Spek" is a character that resembles a blue wind-up block who has no special abilities. It was released in Japan in January 2016, and worldwide in April 2016.
The title's main gameplay is based on the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, as it also borrows many elements and assets from said series.
