Super Mario Bros. and the Seven Stars

Super Mario Bros. and the Seven Stars is an RPG game released for the Nintendo DS on December 22, 2004 in Japan and January 18, 2005 in the rest of the world.

== Early story == Bowser built a machine called the Star Drainer. This machine can drain the power of the Power Stars. One day, the king of the Koopas found seven extremely powerful Power Stars, which were named Hyper Stars. Obviously, Bowser wanted very much to drain these stars.

Mario, as a good hero, was trying to stop Bowser's villainy. But when he got there, the guard of the Hyper Stars, Kani, was trying to stop the villain. When he was about to be defeated, the guardian spread the Hyper Stars all over the world.

Middle story
When Mario recovered all Hyper Stars, Bowser went crazy. He began to create a very powerful army. Several members of Koopa Troop were genetically modified to join this elite troop.

Even with a lot of effort, Mario was defeated, all his Hyper Stars were stolen by Bowser and the plumber was hurled to the other side of the world, where he was found by Rikki, a black Boo, who rebelled against the king of the Koopas. Rikki decides to enter Mario's cap and joins the plumber.

How to play
There are 4 playable characters in this game:

Mario (a average character)

Luigi (the slowest character)

Peach (the fastest character)

Rikki (a average character)

This game is a turn-based RPG. Each character has his attacks (I'll mention that later), advantages and disadvantages.

All the characters can gain EXP and level up to the level 100.

There are four types of attacks: Normal, Special, Counter, and Support.

Some attacks have different elements, which can be very effective or not, depending on the element of the enemy.

Element chart: ''Notes: - is neutral, + is effective and x is not effective. Normal is neutral against every type.''

Attack types
Normal: They are weak attacks, but have the advantages of not having enemies that have resistances and don't spending PP.

Special: They are stronger but have types that are affected by the table above.

Counter: They are always used first. They are simply counterattacks, which absorb the damage received and attack back, usually with a stronger attack.

Support: They have varied effects, like increasing some attribute, like Speed, or recover HP.
