    Best follow-up to a beloved RPG series

    There are so many good things I could say about Mario & Luigi: Brothership, but it’s best that you play it yourself for the best experience. It’s an RPG, so it has the traditional turn-based combat that every Mario & Luigi game has, with some unique elements here and there. As for the story, it does drag on at first, but gets really interesting and engaging on the later half, making it all worth it in the end. In conclusion, this game is a must-have for those who are familiar to any Mario & Luigi game (or RPG fans in general)!

    An Incredible Revival

    This is a great addition to the Mario & Luigi series with a wonderful story full of interesting characters and a rewarding satisfying battle system. It's slower paced than previous games, but not to it's detriment. It slowly yet steadily builds to one of the most epic conclusions in the series.

    I liked the gameplay and the story is good, just sometimes they can both be a little slow.
