    Really fun and enjoyable game. The battle system gets a bit repetitive but not enough so to distract from what is a fun rpg.

    Every Paper Mario game after The Thousand-Year Door has been divisive amongst the series' fan base because they change up the formula. This one is no exception, and the battle system and visuals are an improvement over Color Splash and the signature quality writing is nearly just as good if only slightly less hilarious. Only downside is the last quarter of the campaign that gets a bit tedious. Still, ignore the doubters, this remains one of 2020's best games.

    My son & I are loving this game! It's hard to go wrong with a new Mario game, and this one does not disappoint. It looks fantastic, the game-play is classic 3D Mario, but with a 2D twist and I love how clever and fun the dialogue is from the Toads and other characters. Finally, unlike a lot of recent games, this one looks like it'll be decently lengthy. Well done, Nintendo!

    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

    Yes it is not the original paper Mario but it is great none the less! Loved the story and humor. Finding all the roads was not tedious like other games where you have to search for stars or moons. The only issue I have is the replay value. Don’t see myself picking this game up again. I beat it and there is not really an incentive to get 100%. Came really close but that was at first play. This one issue really isn’ta reason not to get it though. Overall got my money’s worth.

    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.
