    My 9yr old son loves it and is almost halfway through it already after about 2 weeks. Not really the same as the old paper Marios and is much more kid oriented though. So, old school paper Mario fans should be aware of that. I loved the original and gamecube paper Marios and was forward to trying this one, but after seeing and helping my son play it, I decided to just let him play it as it didn't look all that interesting / challenging to me. Great game for kids otherwise.

    A nintendo game through and through. Hit's the right notes, but hasn't quite gotten back to what made the series great.

    Lots of fun, and very addictive. This isn't a traditional Mario game, running jumping, slamming on kompas etc. It's more of an RPG. There is a bit of reading and puzzle solving so it's probably not the best Mario game for little kids. Graphics are great and the puzzles are a lot of fun.

    If you are a fan of Paper Mario series, you cant miss this master piece. Once again Mario has to set our an adventure to save princess Peach with help of the cast of the classic Mario characters. The game play and exploration are top notch, and every world feel unique and full of imagination. This game is full of that classic Nintendo charm that you should not miss.

    A really good game that introduces a new fighting mechanism to the franchise! It was a fun game to play and the new mechanism brought a new light to the game! Really needed some thinking and strategy while on a timer. So it really gets you to think on your feet. A lot of extra stuff to do and a whole collect a tho of trophies and such. Great game for people on any age

    The atmosphere and humorous dialogue kept me smiling throughout. Turn based battles are now more akin to quick think puzzles, though the boss fights are in a league of their own mechanically. Plenty of variety in gameplay. The story is not much to speak of though and I feel like it should of been called "The Origami Invasion" since the main villain is hardly used.

    The story in the game is good, and might be worth the money. The gameplay is like most of the other Paper Mario games, except for the combat and experience. The combat is dull. It gets a little old by the half way mark. There's no experience system. You get stronger by gathering heart containers and not every container does more than increase your max health.

    This game has all the Nintendo fans at the house clamoring to see who get to play it. It's full of wit and humor. The new battle system is challenging and fun. It even has a few touching moments. Wife has been playing it every night since we bought it to try and stay ahead of the kids. If you like any of the other Paper Mario games you will enjoy this one.
