Super Mario Bros Free PC Game


Super Mario Crossover was voted the best free PC game of all time by GamePro.com, so I investigated in the name of investigation and ponies. (Everything I do, I do for ponies.)

You can play as Mario (who surely needs no introduction or explanation, Link (Zelda), Mega Man, Samus Aran (Metroid), Simon Belmont (Castlevania), Bill Rizer (Contra), Sophia III (Blaster Master) , and Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden).

Dungeon Developer, Free Dungeon Crawler Game

Dungeon Developer seems like a typical dungeon crawler game. There are adventurers with various skills, there are mobs that must be destroyed and there is a boss at the final level. Yawn, right? Wrong. There is a twist to this game, a twist that will make you sympathetic to every game you ever play, for in Dungeon Developer, you play as the dungeon.
