The Origami King lives up to the series' family-friendly humor.
Visual Design
Successfully delivers on its Origami visuals; its open world is vibrant and fun to explore.

Combat has few interesting choices and quickly becomes repetitive.

Paper Mario: The Origami King Critic Reviews
View All (131 total)Nintendo sketches another warm and colourful Paper Mario adventure, though never traces its full potential.
The Origami King suffers from one-note combat and few real choices, but its personality and visual design are a joy.
Paper Mario: The Origami King is fun, light-hearted and a celebration of Super Mario with a strong story, great humour and brilliant characters.
One of the most relentlessly charming video games ever made and the best Paper Mario since The Thousand-Year Door.
