About

"One day, whilst crafting a plush doll, something miraculous occured. The doll smiled at me." Mario awakes inside a charming workshop with a dark past, with Peach and Bowser transformed into plush dolls sitting beside him. They had all been attacked by a man named The Patchmaker... To save them, he needs to team up with a creation of that man, the living doll Sewnia. Embark across 12 different worlds, collecting a new ability in each that helps Mario traverse that area. What secrets does this workshop hold? What goals does The Patchmaker have? ...And how did Sewnia come to life exactly? The Patchmaker's Workshop features a fully original soundtrack composed by ornevelder, Tori Draws Stuff, and CowQuack.
