| Kill the Plumber

Kill the Plumber is Super Mario Bros. in reverse.

You take control of a variety of different enemies, bosses, and traps, and to try and protect not-Princess Peach from her stalker, not-Mario.

It's very inventive and luring a still-formidable not-Mario onto a spiked head, crushing him with a perfectly-timed not-Thwomp, or sneaking up on him as a not-Boo is always satisfying.

New mechanics appear at a regular pace while old ones get recycled, keeping things fresh.

The one major flaw is some severe framerate issues. Certain levels constantly switch between glacial pace and fast-forward making them almost impossible to finish.
