Played through the game Puppeteer a month ago and I found it quite impressive how that whole setting involved puppets and a stage show for the setting. (Bare in mind I having completed the game yet making it to Act 5.) So just like to see what else is there that uses a similar set up. I know Dynamite Heady and an arcade fighting game with puppets for the fighters. And it's theorized that Super Mario Bros. 3 is set on a stage. (Look it up sometime.) So what else is there?

Isn't Yoshi's Island also set on a stage? I seem to remember the intro sequence at least, looking like a stage play, with curtains and whatnot.

Wonder Momo is basically a public show on a stage (complete with guys trying to get up skirt shots if the heroine).

There's a pretty good beat em up on the download services called Foul Play that is basically one huge stage production of an elderly gentleman whacking demons with his cane. It even has an audience reaction meter that goes up when you're doing crazy combos.

You two are thinking of Yoshi Story

Yeah, Yoshi's Story looks like a pop-up book, but I recall Yoshi's Island's intro sequence looking like a play.
...
It seems I misremembered. They were actually pillars instead of curtains. Oh well.

Yoshi's Island definitely has a crayon-ish aesthetic, though.

Pathologic, kind of.
Double Fine has a pair of free browser games called Host Master, where Tim Schafer has to prepare jokes for hosting some awards show. Never played them far enough to know whether the actual stage part is also in, though.

And it's theorized that Super Mario Bros. 3 is set on a stage. (Look it up sometime.) I don't know why people theorize that. It's just a cute touch for the intro/credits, but the internet always wants to look too deep into things. Yeah, I know it's more than that, but for every reason people call it a stage play you can find things that prove the exact opposite.

If Mario 3 isn't made to be a play, it does a convincing job of it. How are there shadows touching the sky? Hanging from a ceiling? Not to mention the goalposts where you go off into black background. Mario usually doesn't have to make sense, but I think its graphical style at least inspired by it.

Wouldn't games like Rock Band/Guitar Hero count? I mean, it's a pretty mundane example, but no others come to mind.
