Super Mario RPG

A remake of 1996's Legend of the Seven Stars, Super Mario RPG revamps the franchise's first role-playing game to make it as accessible as possible for a modern audience. The game utilizes a turn-based combat system reminiscent of old-school JRPGs, one that allows three characters to form a party. Outside of fights, Super Mario RPG features platforming, puzzles, and a more involved story than a traditional Mario game.
