where this color comes from

Mario wears a red cap and a red shirt under blue overalls. In Color Guesser, that red is the one to guess: #E42023. It's the shade of the drawing used in the game, not an official color: Mario's red changes from one video game to another and from screen to screen.

It is a vivid, clean red. In the game, it has exactly the same code as Toad's red (#E42023, a ΔE gap of 0), and it is almost identical to Liverpool red (#E51B24, ΔE of 0.6). It is a little darker and less pink than Mickey's red (#FF1621, ΔE of 5.3). The blue overalls right next to it make it look warmer, and many players choose it too orange. In the big square, aim for the purest red, at medium lightness.
