Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, known in Japan simply as Super Mario RPG, was the first game in the Mario RPG series.

Plot

An evil force in the guise of a sentient sword named Exor crashes into Star Road and then takes over the castle of Bowser, King of the Koopa. Star Road is the place where wishes turn into wish stars to grant the wishes of the people of the world. When Exor crashed down, Star Road was shattered into seven pieces.

Smithy's minions stole all of the star pieces so Mario teams up with Princess Peach, Mallow, a fluffy being that was raised by frogs, and a sentient doll named Geno. Mario also reluctantly teams up with his arch-enemy, Bowser, King of the Koopa, because he wants to get his castle back from Exor.

Remake

A remake, simply titled Super Mario RPG, was released for Nintendo Switch on November 17, 2023.
