The Legend of Super Mario – Save Mushroom Kingdom
About the Game
The Legend of Super Mario – Save Mushroom Kingdom is a retro-style adventure game built as a game of the original NES Legend of Zelda. This time, instead of Link rescuing Zelda, you play as Mario, exploring the overworld and dungeons in a completely new way. We added this unique hack to our website for fans of classic games who enjoy clever mashups. If you’ve ever imagined what Zelda would look like with Goombas and Koopa Troopas, this one is worth your time.
I played this game last weekend and was surprised by how well the Zelda structure works with Mario characters. It still feels like a Zelda game underneath, but every enemy and dungeon has a Mario touch. I was honestly impressed with how smooth the game runs and how much love went into reworking the music and visuals.
Game Features:
- You explore the overworld using NES-style Mario sprites, replacing Zelda’s original environment with Mushroom Kingdom-themed visuals.
- Instead of collecting Triforce pieces, you search for 8 hidden Starmen across dungeons to increase your strength.
- Mario uses a hammer instead of Link’s sword. It works great for breaking rocks and defeating enemies like Goombas and Koopa Paratroopas.
- Bowser appears as the final boss, and Peach takes Zelda’s place as the one you’re trying to save.
- The game includes custom music, redesigned maps, and boss rooms that feel familiar but have a fun Mario twist.
- Controls stay true to the NES system. Movement, dungeon layouts, and item collection still follow the original Zelda logic.
