Bowser's Keep appears as major location in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake. It rests atop a large rock resembling Bowser himself. Bowser's Keep is accessible from a long bridge connected to Vista Hill. Its halls are lined with statues of Terrapins wielding hammers.
The castle is first visited in the prologue, with a standard rescue of the princess from Bowser. Mario goes through an entry room, a heavily guarded hallway, a lava-filled room with bridges, and a culminating battle against Bowser atop a chandelier in a large room. The rescue is interrupted when Exor crashes into the castle, separating the characters and proclaiming the castle to be the new base of the Smithy Gang. The castle is quickly taken over, as several of Bowser's Minions defect or run away instead of fighting.
Mario and the others later make it back to Bowser's Keep using a royal bus from Nimbus Land. They encounter much stronger enemies than before. The characters first go through the same rooms as Mario did in the first visit. After the room where Bowser was fought in the prologue, the characters go through a dark, twisted hall and encounter Croco and his shop. After completing the Trial Course, the characters fall from a nearby doorway into a tall room and fight the brainwashed Wizakoopa. When defeated, Wizakoopa returns to normal and not only gives the party a magic treasure box but also offers free healing. There is also a nearby Croco with an improved inventory. Afterward, the party goes through a long hall with several Thwomps and Blazers that, if touched, initiate a battle against Big Blasters. Lastly, the characters battle Boomer, and after defeating him, the group goes to the roof, where they battle Exor.
Bowser's Keep is lastly seen in the epilogue, being repaired by Bowser's Minions.
