Super Mario 64 becomes a first-person horror game in the fan project

A guy receives a mysterious letter from his girlfriend, arrives at a castle to find her missing, and tons of rooms full of monsters… IThis is the setup of the 1996 classic Super Mario 64sure, but it’s also a survival horror pitch, which is why this new fan-made project fits so perfectly.

Above Nintendo lifeThis is Another princess is in our castle“a Super Mario 64 inspired horror experience,” where you “decide to return to Peach’s castle a few years after the Princess died, but something isn’t quite right…”

While this looks like a first person mod, It’s actually a completely fan-made project from the ground up, designed with perspective in mind. WWhile it’s currently just a short playable demo, its creator Claudio Mondin hopes to eventually make it into something more substantial.

Here’s a trailer from Mondin:

And here are some gameplay shots that show how it’s all about sneaking around the castle and collecting items while trying to dodge a princess who’s definitely not peachy:

As Mondin says it’s pretty much just a demo so don’t expect too much from it, outside of some sneaking (and the very cool novelty of it). But I’ll play something later today just to see what the promised mystery really is (hopefully the ghost is just upset about it her cake turned into dog shit).

Here you can download the demo and play it yourself. I don’t want to hear about lawyers in the commentseither just go and enjoy something cool a fan made.
