Jerusalem

The map of Jerusalem as it appears in Mario is Missing!

Jerusalem in the PC version of Mario is Missing!

Jerusalem (Arabic: القُدس, al-Quds; Hebrew: יְרוּשָׁלַיִם, Yerushaláyim) is a city in West Asia claimed by both the State of Israel and the State of Palestine as their capital city. Luigi visits it in the PC version of Mario is Missing!, in which it appears in the final set of levels. Despite the long-running dispute between Israel and Palestine over the city's territorial status, the game lists the entire city as Israeli.

As with all other cities in the game, Jerusalem was invaded by Koopa Troopas sent by Bowser. The Troopas stole artifacts from various landmarks of the city: the Dome of the Rock from the Islamic shrine of the same name, a brick from the Western Wall, the Damascus Gate, and the Dead Sea Scrolls from the Shrine of the Book. Mayor Bernstein tasked Luigi with finding all the artifacts and returning them to their respective landmarks.

PC version
	"Cultures both old and new make the country great. It was recently founded in 1948." "Eight great gates lead into the old city, this one to the north, is described as the most pretty."
	"You're at a continental cross-road between Asia and Africa." "Convenient for restaurants, the city is divided into four distinct quarters; 3 religions and Armenian."
	"It's important to Judaism, Christianity and Islam you understand, that's why it's known as The Holy Land." "The capital here was the capital under King David, too, almost 3,000 years ago."
	"You're at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, as well as the Sea of Galilee." "This land is long and narrow, 270 miles long and only 68 miles wide."
	"You'll hear Hebrew and Arabic and English too. Yes, it's Israel (I knew you knew)." "The city is divided into two parts, the Old City behind Turkish Walls, and, yes, the New City."

Penguin Invasion!

Penguins are popping up in people's freezers, ice cream stores and ice makers. Parched people all over the planet are worried that there's nothing cold to drink because penguins are taking up all the freezer space. Stan Lowtemp, president of Stan's Freezer Repair, is telling his customers not to worry. "Mario and Luigi are on the job," he says.

Valuables Vanish

Some very valuable valuables have vanished this week from venues throughout the city. The thefts are almost certainly the work of those twisted turtles, the Koopas. The visiting varmints have been seen by several witnesses, who provided these sketches:
