Fan games based on Nintendo titles are nothing new, but this one may take the cake. A fan developer going by CM9_Animation has created a very unique take on Super Mario 64, reworking it into a survival horror game. The game entitled “Another Princess is in our Castle”, features a version of Peach’s castle that is haunted by the malicious spirit of the princess herself, while the player’s goal is to collect a series of mysterious statues, hide in treasure chests, and escape before getting caught.
“Another Princess is in our Castle” is currently available as a free download via the Game Jolt store, and is apparently just be a demo for what CM9_Animation hopes will be fleshed out into a longer experience later on. It remains to be seen if Nintendo allows this one to keep going, or if they’ll have it removed.
You can watch the demo in action in the video below.
