Mario is a normal plumber who's life is suddenly turned upside down when he's told by a small, mutated mushroom man that he must save a royal princess from a mutated snapping turtle that's now a giant monster that can breathe fire. He sets out, having to kill smaller turtle like creatures and living mushrooms, while travelling through an dystopian world made of brick that has now been flattened, except for certain large green holes leading to the sewers and the occasional hill of brick. And after fighting the beast while on a bridge suspended over lava, and successfully killing said creature, he discovers that "The princess is in another castle!"
