Brutal Mario (鬼畜王マリオ Kichiku Ou Mario, Brutal King Mario), also known as Super Kitiku Mario, is a Super Mario World ROM hack created by a mysterious Japanese ROM-hacker who goes by the name of Carol.

It's well known for being a hack with a large amount of custom bosses and ASM gimmicks, with its development being started when such things were but a dream in the SMW hacking scene.

The hack contains several references to many other video games, from Final Fantasy, to Twinbee, to Kirby, to Mega Man, to even Cho Aniki of all things.

Story[]

The story changed between the Demo 7 and Demo 7.5, mostly due to Carol not having the intro finished by then.

Old Story[]

Marioplot

The old story

One day, Mario was hungry.

Since there were a lot of delicious dragons, he went out to eat some.

New Story[]

Time and time again, Bowser's plans were constantly failed and peace was restored to the Mushroom Kingdom, thanks to the great hero, Mario.

The people of the Mushroom Kingdom praised his heroics. It was said that as long as Mario was alive, the kingdom's prosperity would last forever.

Sadly, peace did not last long.

Mario was crowned king of the Mushroom Kingdom. There was no end to his tyranny.

The land dried up. The people starved. And thus, the kingdom perished. Mario now had his eyes set on conquering the rich Koopa Kingdom, and so, he left the ruined kingdom.

However, in the supposedly vanished Mushroom Kingdom, the people swore revenge on Mario. Now, a movement against him began to rise.

Overworld[]

The Overworld from Brutal Mario was nothing special, as it contained no ExGFX or custom sprites and a few ASM. After the Overworld Demo was out, every demo afterwards featured the custom Overworld introduced in said demo.
