The battles in Paper Mario: The Origami King were starting to feel like the bits in between the great adventure you’d like to skip. This keeps things interesting but also made battle feel more tedious than ever before. Boss battles mix things upĮach battle has a perfect solution which was easy to find at the start of the game but became gradually harder once I progressed. If you can manage to find the solution and end the fight with no damage taken, you’ll get enough coins back to make this a valuable tactic to use when things get tougher. If you throw out some coins before you start, they’ll help you out by either doing extra damage or even solving (part of) the puzzle depending on how much coins you threw. Each saved toad will be in the stands rooting for you. Remember those characters you saved previously… Well turns out they can actually help you out. While on a time limit and with a limited amount of steps to perform, you’ll be scratching your head more than once, wishing you had help. When you can align your enemies perfectly, you’ll get an attack bonus which in most cases means a clean fight with no damage. Before the actual pounding and hammering starts, you’ll get the change to change the battlefield by turning the circles or by sliding the segments. Your boots attack can easily bounce enemies which are in a straight line while your hammer attack is most effective when your enemies are in a 2 by 2 area close to you. With four circles divided into segments, each enemy takes place on one of those segments. When you come across enemies, the battle sequence starts and puts you on a circular stage. Up until now, Paper Mario: The Origami King sounds more or less like your typical Paper Mario game but that’s about the change with the new battle mechanic. Toads being rolled up in a ball or stuck to the back of signs will all be very thankful when saved and even help you out with defeating the Origami King’s minions. Whilst going through the different areas you’ll discover many characters that need saving. With Olivia acting as your guide, you’ll need to visit each part of the kingdom and defeat whatever is holding down the streamers. To top things off, the castle is been wrapped with colored ribbons that tie back to the outskirts of the kingdom. The princess is locked in her origami form in the castle. Mario is taken captured but with the help of Olivia, King Olly’s sister, he manages to escape.Īs it turns out, King Olly is slowly turning every character in origami making them act as his army. To make things worse, he flies away with Peach’s castle. Not long after discovering the world is not filled with its normal bunch of colorful characters, King Olly appears and explained he’s taking over from now. Going from flat to “thin-3D” makes characters act very unlike themselves. That’s because she’s been turned into origami by the Origami King. When visiting Princess Peach, Mario notices she’s not looking her own 2D self anymore. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, the Mushroom Kingdom is once again in peril.
