Retro Game of the Week 013: Super Mario RPG(SNES)

Well this is the first time I'll be late with this entry but better late than ever. Anyways, this week we have Super Mario RPG for the SNES. Surprisingly a lot of people look at this game as a very odd one in the Mario franchise mainly because it's an RPG and we all grew up playing Mario in platformer games. Nintendo and Square got things right on this one though. The game is jammed packed with a lot of interesting features and an awesome storyline. The battles are intense and fun as well as the enemies. Your allies have very interesting stories behind them and you can even play as bowser! You can't do that in many mario games(except the sports ones).




The game brings your journey through a huge land with a lot of secrets to discover. Like any RPG, there are small sidequests that you are welcome to accomplish when you want to take a break from the quest.




I won't say much more for those who still haven't played this gem but I'll tell you this, this game rocks! Everything is great about this game. I can't see why anyone would miss out on this one! The only problems I had with this game are the leveling up system which only ended in level 30, and the fact that you couldn't play as Luigi. You did see pictures of him explaining you how to play the game in the instruction manual but that's not good enough! So that's it, until the next retro game of the week...
