Luigi’s Mansion sequel involves no mansion at all in fact that is just the starting point. Luigi hears and feels a rumble while sleeping one day and wakes up and wonders what the rumble could be. Luigi tracks this rumble to the forest behind his mansion. Luigi grabs his flashlight and proceeds to the forest that is dark even during the day. Luigi walks through the forest while getting chills and being scared by the local wildlife. Luigi is walking along looking at the trees with his flashlight. The trees and the ground in the forest are shaking. Luigi walks on with the rumble increasing in power when all of a sudden the rumble stops. Luigi thinks to himself, while trembling in fear. Then he continues walking through the forest until he stumbles into a pipe, which transports Luigi to another world.

The world that Luigi stumbles into is a dark, spooky, and dangerous place. Luigi falls from the pipe that is in the sky and hits the ground with a “thuddd”. Luigi is knocked out for a bit and as he wakes, he sees several tribe people looking at him and speaking in a strange tongue. Luigi tries to get up but the tribe people point spears in Luigi’s general direction as he is captured (When thinking of the Tribe people think of the Dr. Mario commercial with the witch doctor that has a bone through his nose). Luigi is then put on a stick with his ands and feet tied to it. The tribe people walk to their village and Luigi is put in a cage that is guarded by two guards in a hut.

Meanwhile something happens to the tribe that they have no control over. The tribal queen has been kidnapped and the tribe people do not know what to do. Oh Noes!! Luigi is in the cage with the two guards standing next to him. Luigi cries while looking at a picture of himself and Mario. He cries thinking he will never see his brother again. One guard grabs the picture and looks at it. The guard gets all excited and runs out of the hut.

The guard shows the picture to the tribe’s leader (witch doctor). The tribe’s leader kind of connects two and two together and walks to the hut with Luigi in it. He speaks in his tongue and tells the guard to release him. One guard opens the cage and Luigi in surprise gets up, walks out, and shakes the cobwebs out. The tribal leader walks over to Luigi and points to Mario. The tribal leader says in broken English “Mario, you know Mario.” He points at Luigi in the picture, then at Luigi and says “Who you?” Luigi says his name as he would say it “Luigi!, I am Mario’s brother”. A long story short, the tribal leader convinces Luigi to help his tribe with the problem that has occurred.

The game location is set in the world similar to that of Tarzan or King Kong with trees, waterfalls, rivers, and animals. The game will have many current and past enemies scattered on Luigi’s path throughout the land. However, do not worry there will not be any tigers, dinosaurs, rhinos, etc.

The game would feature a typical 2D scroller or possibly a 2.5D game where all the objects and characters are rendered in 3D. Moreover, to change up the game, the direction in which Luigi goes will vary meaning that one time he may walk left across the screen or right across the screen. Sometimes Luigi will have to climb a hill, a tree, temple, or other object to progress further into a level. Luigi goes on an adventure through the jungle to save the tribal queen. Luigi’s powers are the same as in many of the classic Mario Brothers games. Such as Luigi will be able to pick up enemies and throw them into other enemies. He can kick, stomp, or use a swing motion from a tree to land on several enemies. What is the point of the game you may ask? Well the point is to get as many points as possible before the timer runs out for each level. You collect points by taking out enemies and bosses, by collecting such things as fruit for health, and you guessed it coins cause, a jungle is full of coins right.

I rather not tell the end of this story as it may spoil the game. That is if this would become a game. Daisy, oopps. I find this an interesting idea for Luigi because it sets him apart from the typical Mario games, outside of the kidnapping motif. It places Luigi in different worlds than his brother and gives Nintendo another character to work with in the sense of creating new games with current characters.
