Mario lives up to his Super status once again. Once you pick this one up, you're hooked. This fun, intriguing role-playing game should please diehard RPG fans as well as novice players. Shops and equipping are done through a rudimentary menu system. The controls on SMRPG are also fluid and easy to handle, once you get used to the Landstalker-type 3/4-over-head view of the action. Great symphonic orchestrations enhance the action. The music and sound effects redefine what can be done on a 16-bit system. Mario looks exactly like he did in the first Super Mario World for the SNES, and his companions each have unique graphical qualities (for example, Mallow literally jumps out of his shorts when he casts a spell). And expect a surprise or two, like Donkey Kong and Yoshi making guest appearances! Super Mario Whirlįrom the rendered enemies to the rich cinematics, the graphics are stunning. There are also great-looking spells and rendered enemies like Goombas, Sky Troopas, and even Bob-ombs. And don't let the smooth taste fool you - the game may have a cute, childlike interface to it, but it's tough, with tons of strategy and side quests.Īdded features, like Toadofask's music levels, give the game a high replay factor. Great humor, lots of conversation, and extensive puzzle-solving flesh out the gameplay. You can build up your weapons and armor through the various shops. After acquiring a certain amount of experience points, you're allowed to increase either your Hit Points, Magic Defense, or Attack Power. RPGers will be interested in the advancement of levels through combat. Mario finds several new companions (and some old ones, like Yoshi), but can take only three on his quest. He's aided by spells, neat weapons, and friendly allies - the most surprising of which is Bowser. In order to restore the kingdom, Mario has to find the Seven Stars, indeed a Super quest! Once again, he's lost Princess Toadstool to evil fiends, and he's off to the Mushroom Kingdom to find her. Mario has a lot of trouble with relationships. But does it hold up to the toughest RPG standards? If you like fast, funny action, and great rendered graphics, it does.
