Legend

Mario is Missing! is designed to make it seem like each curator picks two questions at random from a pool of three. However, the set of quizzes that can actually be given is more limited than that. At most of the booths, there are only three possible two-question quizzes, and it is sometimes possible to predict what inputs can be given to answer the first or second question. At the other booths, the same two questions are always asked in the same order, so the answers can always be predicted.

It is obviously a lot faster to get through a menu by entering inputs from memory than it is to read and react to the questions being asked. Therefore, learning to answer questions without reading them is important to getting a good time.

This page documents the combinations of answers that can be given to return each artifact. Each table row represents a possible quiz. Answers are given in boldface if the inputs for them can be predicted based on the booth and/or the preceding answer. For example, all of the answers for the first question at the Eiffel Tower are bolded because the correct answer is always two spaces down from the top, regardless of which question is asked. The "Steel and rivets" answer after "Engineer" is also bolded because if the answer to the first question is "Engineer," the answer to the second question is always "Steel and rivets."

Additionally, the answers to give for the information booths on the first floor are italicized. When following the Any % route, these particular quizzes will always be given, so these answers can be memorized. The other quizzes in those tables will only come up if you change the route or you answer an earlier question incorrectly.
