    I binged this game. I could not put it down. At first I was thrown off on how slow the dialogue was, but playing the game I did find the dialogue speeding up and I no longer had this issue. I have issues with beating games, and I can say this is the first game I beat in 2020 because I could not stop playing. The boss fights started off easy but near the end I was struggling with the puzzles surprisingly enough. Story telling was VERY good. Normally I don't think Mario games have amazing stories, but The Origami King surprised me with the depth of the characters portrayed. Sucks that there is no replayability.

    This was a fun game. Not as good as Legend of the 7 stars but a welcome addition to the Paper Mario franchise. I look forward to what Nintendo brings next in this series!

    Simple, but funny and colorful game. Story isn't quite as deep as other games, and it's barely an RPG, but it's especially fun to play with a child.

    This is the Paper Mario game I missed! The last few that were released were dissapointing. This one brings back the fun and memories I had since The Thousand Year Door!

    A few hours in and loving it. The visuals and the style are great. The writing and dialog is funny and witty. Tons of fun so far. Has that usual nintendo charm and polish.

    Love this game. My kid plays twice a day... It has some tricky situation where you need to explore in order to proceed. Love the length of the game and the humor as well.

    Very fun game to play. Super Mario games are always fun. This one is very interesting as well because it is origami too. I recommend this to any Super Mario fan.

    Probably my favorite Paper Mario. I've sunk in over 45 hours to beat it and still have not gotten everything. Battle system is different and probably my only gripe.

    This game is so much fun for the whole family. It’s a must-have game for the switch. Nintendo rarely makes a bad Mario game, and this is one of the good ones.

    I was iffy about getting this game since the last two weren’t that great. This one involves a lot of gameplay. If you’re not a fan of puzzles you won’t like this game.

    A little slow, not a ton of action. Very pretty and has some giggles in the dialogue, but I think this one missed the mark for the series that continues to let fans down.

    Fun game for the RPG players who love Mario but hate the 3D worlds. I don’t prefer the 3D so this game is perfect. Paper Mario was always fun ever since SNES.

    I’m personally not very fond of the game but it’s not terrible. The battles are all step by step, not like the old schools Mario battles are. I tried returning it but you cannot under the law. It’s because of copyrights.

    I haven't play any of them previous Paper Mario game. So I am not going to compare them to the origami king. Battle puzzles can be a little tricky especially the boss battles and I wish the was a little longer.
