    I don’t understand why they keep doing these new paper Mario games without involving experience and those things that make it more rpg, like the first 2 games. Game is good, the new battle mechanics are ok, a little complex. Overall a good game but it could have been better

    I've been a casual fan of the Paper Mario series since the beginning. This entry has got me laughing at every corner, plus the visuals and origami themed worlds are delightful to see. Good length for completion and plenty of mini games. Highly recommend it!

    I kept reading bad reivews about this game but I think its is amazing. I'd say this is my 2nd favorite Mario RPG, the first being Legend of the Seven Stars. This game truly feels like an epic RPG. It is pretty challenging and has a unique combat system.

    Paper Mario Continues to reinvent itself. This game stands out on its own, just like the other Paper Mario games. It has unique features that I won't spoil but if you're a Paper Mario fan, you'll want to pick up this game.

    If your a fan of the Paper Mario series, this game deserves your attention. Its witty, fun, colorful and the new ring puzzle battle system is fun yet frustrating at times. Still, don't let that discourage you from at least trying this game. Thank you.

    Lots of fun! Humorous dialog and some sad moments during the gameplay but well worthwhile. Adults and kids will love this game. I typically have a habit of starting games and not finishing but this one held my attention to completion.

    I never played a Paper Mario game this good since The Thousand-Year Door, although it's still not as good as that game nor the first one on the N64. Still no RPG elements and the battle system is the most frustrating I've experienced, those which held me back from giving this game 5 stars. The story is pretty good though.

    Fun Game, Poor Battle System

    Although the game has a fun story and humor, the battle system has little to do with traditional RPG elements from Paper Mario origins and instead is reduced to a repetitive puzzle solving mechanic with no incentive to use as there is no XP rewarded for doing so.

    Great game for people of all ages. Nice break from the typical shooter type games I usually play. Dialog is funny, game play is pretty straight forward. Overall, glad I bought this game. Provided a nice distraction while staying at home more.

    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.

    I’m still relatively in the beginning phases of the game but, so far, it does not disappoint! Extremely fun and creative game with a bit of humorous dialogue. I’m a fan of the Paper Mario games and so far this becoming one of my top favorites.

    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.

    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.
