In this game, the roles are switched, Mario, Luigi, and the Mushroom Kingdom Toads are kidnapped by Bowser and it's up to Peach to save them, using a talking umbrella called Perry and her powers of emotion.

Plot[]

After Mario, Luigi, and the Toads get captured by Bowser's army, it's now Peach's turn to go out and save them.

Gameplay[]

In this game, Peach can use an umbrella named Perry to get advice, fly, and attack enemies. She also has "vibe powers", which are attacks and maneuvers that are triggered by her emotions.

Vibe Powers[]

In the game, Peach will be able to pull off many emotions that will trigger different attacks, called "vibe powers". The list of vibe powers are:

  • Calm: Once you press the Calm icon on the bottom, Peach will become relaxed, causing her HP to restore.
  • Gloom: Once you press the Gloom icon, Peach will become so sad, she'll move around sobbing, causing small plants to grow longer and bigger so she can climb them.
  • Rage: Once you press the Rage icon, Peach will become very angry, causing her to be on fire. This vibe power will not only make her invincible, but it will also allow her to ram into enemies, killing them all.
  • Joy: Once you press the Joy icon, Peach will become extremely happy and sing, causing her to float in the air to get to hard-to-reach places or grab hard-to reach items.
