Mario Minions is a sandbox game for the Wii U in which the player takes the role of a member of the Koopa Troop and must complete different tasks for King Bowser to move up ranks and get achievements. The game is a spin-off of the Mario series.
Gameplay[]
The game features the player taking the role of a member of the Koopa Troop. Depending on which member you choose you will have different tasks at different times, as well as some exclusive tasks. Every time a task/mission is complete, you will earn a certain amount of points. After a certain amount of points are earned, you will move up a rank. The hub area is Bowser's Castle. Here, there are various rooms to explore, as well as a shop and other people to team with or to assist you. The castle also has many corridors and alcoves.
When exiting the castle, characters loyal to Princess Peach, such as Toads, will spawn. On contact, you will begin a classic RPG-style battle with them, with various attacks and turn-taking. The land outside the castle is full of exploration, and many areas are not just for missions, but also feature hidden secrets and optional missions and bosses.
Due to being a sandbox game, it never ends, and after every mission is complete, several events can repeatedly take place and can be completed for experience, gear, and money. One of these events it that occasionally, Bowser will go to capture Princess Peach, and you must try to fight Mario off.
The game features 4 save files to play on, with the normal copying and deleting options.
