Story
The game starts with Princess Peach Toadstool sending Mario a letter, asking him to have cake in the castle with her. When Mario goes inside the castle, he discovers that Peach has been captured by Bowser and that he has stolen 120 Power Stars, hiding them in paintings.

After collecting a certain amount of Power Stars, Mario can fight Bowser in the Dark World. Mario beats Bowser here and repeats the process two more times encountering Bowser in both the Fire Sea and the Sky. The final battle involves Bowser giving up the final Grand Power Star and disappearing. Mario flies, using the Wing Cap to the front of the castle and finally saves Peach. After viewing the credits, a cake is shown with Peach and Mario figures as cake toppers and the game ends but watch out for the wario apparition in beta version.
