Storyline

Our story begins with Mario Mario & Luigi Mario, who are plumbers, brothers and best friends working in the big city of Brooklyn, New York. After the two were fed up with the working conditions of their boss Spike, quit their jobs and work independently, which is going as bad as you’d expect it to! Things go from bad to worse when after landing a job with Mayor Pauline that would get them on the map, a mysterious flood from the sewers occurs right when they’re on the job, leading to widespread disapproval and backlash from everyone including their own family. All on their own, the brothers resolve to clear their name and get themselves back on the map by fixing the leak, but things go from worse to awful as Luigi leaves Mario and monsters invade Brooklyn. Now all on his own, Mario tries to fix the leak himself, but finds a mysterious large green pipe, with no other option, he heads inside. He ends in this strange world, filled with Mushrooms. Beforehand he was floating in a Pink void filled with Pipes, with his brother Luigi floating right above him while remaining helpless. Soon, Mario finds a local named Kinopio Flugis Shroomstein or as he would like to be known as “Toad”. Despite his excitable somewhat hyperactively annoying nature, he provides valuable information for Mario that he is the Mushroom Kingdom and his brother has possibly landed in the mysterious Darklands, he resolved to take Mario right away to the Princess as “she can do anything”. Mario meets with the Princess named Peach Toadstool who reveals that Luigi has ended up in Bowser’s domain, the evil ruthless King of the Koopas who with his wizardly adviser and father figure, Kamek, and his council, the Elite Trio (Who bicker over who deserves to be promoted to Emperor) plan to rule the world using the 6 Power Stars and secretly, force his hand in marriage with Princess Peach. She tells Mario that it is only a matter of time before something bad happens to him. What makes matters worse is that Bowser has already found one of the Power Stars in the remains of Cool Cool City and would be sure to find the remaining five he has to collect to ensure unlimited power. Riddled with guilt, Mario wants Peach to take him to save Luigi, but Peach, thinking the Plumber is unfit for venturing out and possibly getting himself hurt, declines. But after a lengthy training session and seeing potential in the plucky plumber, she accepts. They soon strike a deal where Mario would help Peach with her Bowser problem and Peach would help Mario find Luigi. Joined by Toad, the trio embark on a sprawling adventure across scorching deserts and lush beaches of Sarasaland, tranquil Fire Flower meadows, the food dinosaur-filled tropical landscape Yoshi’s Island, a bustling jungle metropolis ruled by the crankiest ape alive, and even the glittering Roads of Rainbows. With the assistance of Princess Peach and budding friendship with Toad, Mario taps into his own power as they resolve to find the Power Stars, create a resistance to protect the Mushroom Kingdom, and stop Bowser's plans of world domination. Meanwhile, Luigi, alongside his fellow prisoners must hatch a daring escape plan where he must find his true resolve to become the person he and his brother aspires him to be.
