    Paper mario series is a great choice for all ages. It engages your mind in critical thinking while still being fun. Easy enough to not get frustrated but difficult enough to challenge you

    We love everything Mario and liked the Sticker Star version for DS so we knew we had to have this one. Even my teenager who initially said I don't think we need it can't stop playing it.

    Took around 20 hours to finish...has a few twists that are worth playing for. Was appropriate for my 4 and 6 year old to watch me play.

    A wonderful new addition to the Paper Mario line. The game is full of great dialogue and the combat take a bit of getting used too, but once you learn it it's a great experience.

    This is a really fun game and easy to play. Does take a while to get started while you learn how to play it. The graphics are great and you can really get lost in collecting confetti! :)

    I got this game for my son (age 5), and he loved it. I had to help him with the battle system, and some of the reading that is involved but it was a very fun game that we both enjoyed.

    After my play through of Last of Us part 2, i needed something less stressful. I saw the trailer for the new Paper Mario game and knew its exactly what i needed. This game has a beautiful world with lots of colors and charm. The characters are lovable and the writing is clever and comical. Already a few times were i just cracked up laughing. The rpg elements are lacking true, but i already accepted it and treat this more like a adventure game, and its great. Thank the world for Nintendo and their breath of fresh air.

    Amazing Mario game. Easy to pick up, especially if you have experience with Mario games already. Very bright and colorful and a blast to play alone or with kids and family.

    Nah this game is fun. Idk why a few reviews were like “for kids 10 and under”. The beginning is easy, but it gets better and better as you go along. It’s cute and I love playing it.

    My son and I really enjoy playing this game together. There is a lot of reading so that makes it challenging for young gamers. Overall, it’s a great game and I highly recommend it.

    The paper Mario series always delivers a smile to my face. It has elements that are not present on the other Mario titles. This one follows that tradition and it doesn't dissapoint

    I haven't played it all that much, but so far it seems like a good continuation of the series. The Origami conceit seems like a natural fit for the series and brings with it some fun gameplay. If you're a Paper Mario fan it's definitely worth it.

    Bought this game and it's very fun. It brings in its own charm apart from the other paper mario games in the series. Buy this game if you want a fun and wacky adventure with Mario.

    The game was pretty good overall. The only reason this game doesn't get a 5/5 is because the fighting is pretty boring. Exploring the world, solving puzzles, etc is super fun but the battles could definitely have been improved.

    I’m not done yet, but the game is super entertaining. I’m not a huge fan of turn based combat feature, but they make it fun.
