遊戲系統
《超級瑪利歐RPG》是瑪利歐系列第一款角色扮演(RPG)遊戲,借鑒了史克威爾的RPG系列主要元素,例如最終幻想系列,同時具有超級瑪利歐系列的故事和情節。[3]與其他RPG類似的,遊戲圍繞着冒險和與怪物的回合制戰鬥。在最初旅行中,玩家僅僅控制瑪利歐一人,最後,玩家將可以操作5個人物。此遊戲的大多數音樂由下村陽子創作,也包括植松伸夫作曲的三支《最終幻想IV》配樂曲目。
劇情
一天,瑪利歐再次前往酷霸城堡解救碧姬。[4]戰鬥中,有生命的武器「王者之劍」從天而降,打破了能夠實現人們願望的「星星之路」,並刺中酷霸城堡,[4]將瑪利歐、碧姬和酷霸震飛到不同的地方,七顆「星星碎片」也散落至各地。瑪利歐回到自己的小屋,遇到了奇諾比奧,他告訴瑪利歐必須去救碧姬。瑪利歐回到酷霸城堡,但通往城堡的橋樑已被王者之劍摧毀。[5]瑪利歐來到蘑菇王國,遇到了自稱是「青蛙」的瑪羅,他正準備去奪回被小偷鱷鱷偷走的金幣。[6]瑪利歐幫助瑪羅奪回了金幣。二人回到蘑菇王國,發現王國被邪惡機械人「鍛造王」手下的「武器軍團」控制。瑪利歐和瑪羅進入城堡,擊敗了領頭的「劍魂」,[7]隨後找到了一顆神秘的星星碎片。瑪羅陪同瑪利歐前往呱呱湖,從瑪羅的爺爺青蛙仙人那裏獲得建議。青蛙仙人透露說瑪羅並非青蛙,並說瑪羅應該加入瑪利歐的冒險,尋找七顆星星碎片以及瑪羅的親生父母。
兩人來到玫瑰鎮,遇到了附身於木偶吉諾的天空使者。玫瑰鎮的居民被「弓箭帕」用箭限制了行動,三人擊敗了弓箭帕,奪回了另一顆星星碎片。吉諾加入了瑪利歐的隊伍,告訴他自己來自星星之路,星星碎片是破碎的星星之路的一部分。吉諾的任務是修復星星之路並擊敗鍛造王,這樣世界上的願望才能實現。[8]三人組取回了第三顆星星碎片,然後前往武奇塔,熱衷玩樂的怪人武奇居住於此。他們遇到了被手下拋棄的酷霸。酷霸不情願地要求瑪利歐幫助他奪回城堡,瑪利歐同意了。酷霸加入了隊伍,但礙於面子,聲稱是瑪利歐加入了酷霸軍團。武奇想要強迫碧姬嫁給他,眾人前去阻止婚禮進行。然而這場婚禮與他們想像的並不一樣,武奇並不明白婚姻的真正意義,只是把婚禮當作有趣的派對。吃完蛋糕後,武奇便回去了。[9]
碧姬獲救後,回到蘑菇王國,但隨後決定加入隊伍,並讓婆婆幫她遮掩此事。[10]又找到兩顆星星碎片後,他們來到棉花糖之國搜尋星星碎片。雕刻家加羅告訴他們,瑪格麗特囚禁了棉花糖之國的統治者,並讓她的助手渡渡假扮王子,從而使瑪格麗特當上女王。加羅認出瑪羅是真正的王子,於是將瑪利歐偽裝成銅像送入城堡。眾人在城堡內擊敗了瑪格麗特和渡渡,解放了瑪羅的父母,即國王和王后。
在前往木桶火山獲得第六顆星星碎片後,瑪利歐一行人得知最後一顆碎片在酷霸城堡的鍛造王手中。[11]他們擊敗了一路上的敵人,進入了城堡,發現王者之劍是通往鍛造王所在的武器世界的大門。瑪利歐和他的同伴們進入了武器世界,裏面是鍛造王用來生產武器大軍的武器工廠。[12]眾人來到工廠的最深處擊敗了鍛造王,從而阻止了武器的製造,王者之劍也一併消失。眾人用收集到的星星碎片修復了星星之路。故事最後,吉諾返回星星之路,酷霸帶領重新組建的酷霸軍團重建他的城堡,瑪羅恢復了棉花糖之國王子的身份,瑪利歐和碧姬回到蘑菇王國慶祝勝利。[13]
評價
本作受到非常正面的評價,尤其因其幽默的劇情和3D彩現圖形而受到稱讚。
影響
目前由於已合併後的史克威爾艾尼克斯仍持有《超級瑪利歐RPG》的大量版權(例如原創角色和遊戲標題等),導致遊戲沒有正統續作,但成為任天堂另外兩款瑪利歐系列角色扮演遊戲的主要靈感來源,分別是《紙片瑪利歐》和《瑪利歐與路易吉RPG》,兩者都是精神續作,並保留了一些本作遊戲元素。
重製版
2023年6月21日的任天堂直面會中,本作暌違27年後任天堂和史克威爾艾尼克斯宣佈推出完全重製版,於同年11月17日在任天堂Switch平台推出[14],並首度增設繁簡中文。遊戲由曾為史克威爾艾尼克斯開發多部勇者鬥惡龍系列重製版的ArtePiazza公司主導開發,採用全3D圖形和動作,音樂依舊由下村陽子創作[15]。
