1''Sicari'' is a series of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' ROM hacks starring the titular child assassin and her robot sidekick K-16. Long ago, there was a war between the various gods of creation, which ultimately ended with them sealing themselves away from the mortal plane, leaving only temples behind. But the Sanguis vampire family, who survived the war, are able to unseal [[BigBad Niscura]], Goddess of Shadow and Dimensions, who begins her plan to merge the two dimensions together.

3Sicari, an 11-year-old assassin who lost her parents as a baby and was raised to be a killer, is called upon to stop Niscura and her five minions. Along with K-19, she will have to travel the lands to save her world.

Because Sicari cannot breathe in space, it is up to K-16 to stop her.

9!!This hack contains examples of:
10* ADayInTheLimelight: K-16, the robot sidekick of Sicari, becomes the protagonist of ''K-16 - Story of Steel''.
11* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: Two in ''Remastered'':
12** In certain levels, you will play as Anna, a friend of Sicari and K-16. She plays the same as Sicari except she cannot swim, so touching water acts like touching lava and will burn her.
13** The Bonus World switches control to [[spoiler:Gracie and the mysterious Eclipse of the Lunar Cult]]. They too play the same as Sicari.
14* BigBad:
15** In the original game and ''Remastered'' version, Niscura is the Goddess of Shadow and Dimensions who plans to merge her world of Demonia with Sicari's dimension and rule over both.
16** ''K-16: Story of Steel'': [[DragonAscendant Scarlet]] is the employer of Team Supernova who has them create a black hole to destroy humanity to [[AvengingTheVillain avenge her brother Crimson]].
17* BrutalBonusLevel: ''Sicari Remastered'' has the Bonus World and Void World, a collection of bonus levels available after beating the main game which up the difficulty.
18* KillItWithWater: Anna cannot swim at all, and touching water is insta-death akin to touching lava.
19* TheGreatOffscreenWar: There was a war between the gods of creation in the past, but it is only mentioned in the synopsis of the Remastered version.
