  • Beautiful visuals, Fantastic writing that's very clever and funny, Puzzle battles are a lot of fun
  • Not the full-blown RPG many fans have been waiting for, Frequent puzzle solving won't appeal to everyone

  • There are elements acting as a glue-stick, keeping Paper Mario: The Origami King from completely falling apart, but it is in desperate need of a vision. If you really need a Mario fix, look to the superior Super Mario Odyssey, which is already available o...

  • Abstract:  The Paper Mario series thrives on a clever irreverence that can be hard to maintain. Its outlandish scenarios mash the absurdist, dreamlike world of the Mushroom Kingdom and the mundanity of the real world. It takes jabs at the very concepts that inspire...

  • Absolutely Hilarious, Overworld puzzles are fun to solve, Graphically impressive…
  • but with a very bland aesthetic, Terrible battle system, No variety in character design
  • While Paper Mario: The Origami King makes excellent strides in terms of humor and adventure game design, it's still sorely lacking aesthetically and features a horrendous battle system that only gets more frustrating as you play. I've given up on the seri...

  • This is no Thousand Year Door, and it's not really an RPG at all, but it is a nice little diversion to keep your thumbs busy between other bigger releases...

  • Best looking Paper Mario yet, Inventive new battle system, Great music, Excellent, charming localisation
  • Battling becomes boring, Finding Toads becomes boring, Using confetti becomes boring, Half of the game becomes boring
  • Paper Mario: The Origami King is the best Paper Mario game I've played in over a decade, and yet I'm still feeling let down. While it's incredibly endearing and genuinely funny, it's also painfully boring and the thought of playing it again puts me straig...
