These games follow X's adventures in the fictional Mushroom Kingdom, usually with X as the player character. He is usually joined by his brother, and occasionally by other members of the X cast. The games have simple plots, typically with X rescuing a particular character from the primary antagonist, Y. The first title in the series, established gameplay concepts and elements prevalent in nearly every X game since. These include a multitude of power-ups and items that give X special magic powers such as fireball-throwing and size-changing into giant and miniature sizes.
