    Great game. Especially having played every other game during stay home restrictions. This game gave us something else to pass the time. Laughing and smiling are what I want to see on my kids faces not worrying about things beyond our control.

    Great game, I love how they make every game's combat system new and unique, makes it feel like you truly are playing a brand new game. Same great humor as this series has always had.

    Ive never played a paper Mario title but the game is great. Graphically it looks fantastic and the gameplay is intuitive however it can get repetitve. I was greatly intruiged by this title and the turn table battle system was fun

    I have played this for a few hours and have thoroughly enjoyed the story line in general. For me being an older generation (started playing in the 1980's, the continuous battle modes tend to be too much too often, but other than that the puzzles so far (about 1/3 into the completion) and general play are wonderful.

    Nice to have a new Paper Mario! Definitely starts a little slow and then picks up! Fun for all, but even more so if you’ve ever played Super Mario RPG or any of the Paper Marios. Something a little different than the typical Mario game.

    Paper Mario, Quick and Easy

    An RPG with a pretty funny/cute story and vibrant, crisp animation/graphics. There's a lot of story telling going on and exploratory elements, but it's all very basic. I would recommend it strictly for younger children since it is quite simple. For an adult, I don't see myself playing it after one go.

    This game has one of the most eye-catching art styles for the Switch. While I was a little worried about the gameplay mechanics, I found it to be fun. This game is a big step-up from the previous two entries of the Paper Mario series.

    The game is alright. There's some fun bits, but the battle system gets old quickly for me. It definitely got to the point were I was just paying the Toads because I was tired of doing the ring puzzles. Overall, I don't hate it but it probably won't be the first game I reach for when I want to play something.

    As a long time Mario game lover, I never really loved the 3D Mario games, but I have always found a the Mario RPG series to be outstanding! This game is another great entry in that overall series!

    My Wife and I both grew up playing Mario and we have all the games for the Nintendo Switch and this one just makes playing Mario enjoyable because it’s a different experience and you will have fun playing the very challenging levels.

    I have always been a fan of the Paper Mario series, loving each game differently. This one in particular is really good, I suggest that anyone interested should pick up a copy. Though the Thousand Year Door will always be my top fav

    Another great entry in the long-running Mario series of games. Nintendo just "gets it" and their original IP shows how a well-made game appeals to young and old alike.

    I like the concept and gameplay. However, I was really expecting a fun retro side scroller. This is basically just a fancy graphic trick for a standard 3d Mario. It would be more fun if they included more side scrolling type levels.

    Fun game and quite funny. Nintendo knows how to make games that are unique and highly polished. The battles can be quite challenging so younger children will need some help thinking through some of the battles

    Fun game - annoying battle system...

    Really fun game, with great graphics. A nice addition to the series. That being said...it's a little annoying getting interrupted during your explorations with redundant "ring battles". That part gets a bit monotonous. Luckily, the rest of the game is good enough to overlook this flaw for the most part.

    I love this game it’s the perfect balance between easy enough so that you don’t get frustrated and put it down and difficult enough so that it keeps you interested. I love the graphics too I’m a lifelong Mario fan.

    This game is fun but I do not like the battle format. Paper Mario 1000 year door was awesome so I figured this game would be good too. It is a good game but so far not as good as 1000 year door. Its Mario so it has to be good!
