'''''Paper Mario: The Origami King''''' is an action-adventure, turn-based [[Genre#Role-playing games|role-playing game]] and the sixth installment in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series, released on the [[Nintendo Switch]] worldwide on July 17, 2020. The game follows [[Mario]] and a new companion, [[Olivia]], opposing the villainous [[King Olly]] and his army of familiar characters turned into origami soldiers, which have taken over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].


The title follows the gameplay style of its two predecessors, ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', in which role-playing elements are deemphasized in favor of action-adventure mechanics, which focus on exploration and puzzle-solving instead of character-driven plotlines and [[Experience Point|experience]]-based stat optimization. Also similar to those predecessors is the focus on specific arts and crafts; while the story of ''The Origami King'' is centered around {{wp|origami}} itself, comparable to stickers from ''Sticker Star'' and paint from ''Color Splash'', other materials such as {{wp|confetti}} and {{wp|papier-mâché}} feature in the gameplay. Conversely, this game abandons the format of self-contained levels used by the later installments, using an interconnected world akin to the first two ''Paper Mario'' games. In terms of combat, ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' does not feature a battle system which uses finite items like ''Sticker Star'' and ''Color Splash'', as it instead uses an original ring-based system that prioritizes puzzle-solving instead of strategy, and also introduces real-time combat to the series in the form of the [[Paper Macho Soldier]]s.
'''''Paper Mario: The Origami King''''' is the upcoming sixth game in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series set to be released on the [[Nintendo Switch]] worldwide on July 17, 2020. The game follows the aesthetic style of its predecessor, ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', and follows [[Mario]] opposing an evil army of origami characters known as [[Folded Soldiers]], ruled by the Origami King, [[King Olly]], which have taken over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].<ref name=Trailer>Nintendo (May 14, 2020).

==Plot==
===Prologue===
[[File:PMTOK Peach Castle streamers.png|thumb|left|King Olly wrapping Peach's castle in [[streamer]]s]]
[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] drive to [[Toad Town]] for the Origami Festival after being invited by [[Princess Peach]]. The brothers arrive to discover the town and [[Peach's Castle]] are deserted. Upon entering the castle, they are locked inside and split up, Luigi heading to search for the castle key and Mario heading into the castle foyer. Peach enters the foyer, having been folded into origami, and drops Mario into a dungeon where several of [[Bowser]]'s minions are being held. Mario discovers a [[Magic Circle]] and initiates the [[1,000-Fold Arms]] technique, using them to free an origami girl named [[Olivia]]. After escaping their cell, Mario and Olivia free Bowser, who was square-folded, restricting his mobility.
 
Escaping to the upper terrace of Peach's Castle, Mario is attacked by a group of Bowser's Minions that were also folded into origami, known as [[Folded Soldiers]]. After defeating the minions, the leader of the origami reveals himself as Olivia's older brother, [[King Olly]]. He summons five streamers from across the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] to wrap around Peach's Castle and rip it out of the ground. Mario, Olivia, and Bowser escape the castle in a [[Koopa Clown Car]] piloted by a [[Shy Guy]], but are quickly knocked out of the Clown Car by the red streamer. Bowser is saved by the Shy Guy, while Mario and Olivia fall into a nearby forest. Olly sets Peach's Castle down atop the peak of a far-off volcano.

===Red streamer===
[[File:PMTOK Paper Macho Goomba Eating House.png|thumb|200px|A Paper Macho Goomba eating a house]]
Mario and Olivia land in [[Whispering Woods]] and notice that Olly moved Peach's Castle. They set out to unravel the five streamers, find Luigi, and defeat Olly. Eventually, they get back to the abandoned Toad Town, now being destroyed by [[Paper Macho Goomba]]s. After defeating the Goombas and finding some Toad Town citizens, they go to search the remains of Peach's Castle and find Luigi. He quickly sets off to find the key to Peach's Castle.
 
Following the red streamer, Mario and Olivia travel to [[Picnic Road]]. They find the door to the [[Earth Vellumental Temple]], which is locked due to four of the five [[Shell Stone]]s required to open it being stolen by Folded Soldiers. They rescue the stones and return them to the door, giving them access to the turtle-like god known as the [[Earth Vellumental]]. However, the Vellumental had been folded into origami, forcing Mario to fight it. Upon defeating, Olivia gains the ability to transform into the Vellumental and manipulate earth, allowing Mario and her to access [[Overlook Tower]], where the source of the red streamer lies. At the top of the tower, the duo confronts [[Colored Pencils]], one of Olly's generals. After defeating the boss, Mario unravels the red streamer.
 
===Blue streamer===
[[File:PMTOK Meeting Bob omb.png|thumb|left|Mario and Olivia meeting Bob-omb on the tram]]
Mario and Olivia next follow the blue streamer and take a tram station to [[Autumn Mountain]]. On the tram, they meet [[Bob-omb (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Bob-omb]], a happy-go-lucky amnesiac, whom Olivia nicknames Bobby. He tags along with them as they travel to the [[Water Vellumental Shrine]]. Upon defeating the origami [[Water Vellumental]], Olivia gains the ability to fold into the Vellumental and create water. She uses this power to refill a dry lake and the [[Eddy River]], which the trio travel down to reach [[Shogun Studios]], a popular theme park.
 
Mario, Olivia, and Bob-omb enter the park, finding it almost entirely deserted. They are tasked with finding the park's master key to rescue the park staff, who are trapped in the high castle tower. After traveling through the whole park, they rescue Luigi in the employee area of the [[Ninja Attraction]], who found the master key, mistaking it for the key to Peach's Castle. The trio unlocks the tower gates and enter [[Big Sho' Theatre]]. After participating in three performances, they face off against [[Rubber Band]], another one of Olly's generals. After defeating Rubber Band, Mario destroys the blue streamer, saving the park and bringing them closer to saving Peach's Castle. The park celebrates with a fireworks ceremony, which jogs Bob-omb's memories.

===Yellow streamer===
[[File:PMTOK Gooper Blooper.png|thumb|Mario and Bob-omb confront the Paper Macho Gooper Blooper]]
Mario, Olivia, and Bob-omb continue down the Eddy River, no longer blocked by the blue streamer, to [[Sweetpaper Valley]]. They are confronted by Olly and Olivia gets crushed by a massive boulder. Bob-omb recalls a way to save Olivia and takes Mario to [[the Great Sea]]. They sail out to a deserted cruise ship known as [[the Princess Peach]]. The duo find the suite Bob-omb originally stayed in. The lockbox inside, which Bob-omb was looking for, is snatched by Paper Macho [[Gooper Blooper]], which Mario fights off at the deck of the ship. Retrieving the lockbox, the duo return to Sweetpaper Valley, where Bob-omb reveals the lockbox contains his late friend's fuse. He uses the fuse to blow himself up, destroying the boulder and freeing Olivia. Olivia runs off, devastated by Bob-omb's sacrifice, and is only cheered up by Mario donning a [[Goomba Mask]] after the suggestion of Bob-omb's ghost.
 
[[File:PMTOK Faceless Toads.png|thumb|left|Mario dancing with the faceless Toads]]
Mario and Olivia head into the [[Scorching Sandpaper Desert]], where the sun is cut out of the sky. After traveling through the desert and obtaining information in [[Shroom City (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Snif City]], they rescue the ancient historian [[Professor Toad]] from the insides of a [[Mega Paper Macho Pokey]]. The professor is pursuing the legend of [[Captain T. Ode|Khap'taan Teeowed]] and tags along with the duo, utilizing his ability to reach ancient writings to solve the ruins' puzzles. The trio perform an ancient ritual in the desert to open the [[Fire Vellumental Cave]] and defeat the origami [[Fire Vellumental]] within. Olivia gains the ability to fold into the Vellumental and light fires, which she uses to light fires in [[Scorching Sandpaper West|three]] [[Scorching Sandpaper Far West|Toad]] [[Scorching Sandpaper West|monoliths]] and unearth the [[Temple of Shrooms]].
 
Inside the temple, the Mario, Olivia, and Professor Toad discovers many zombie-like faceless Toads and [[DJ Toad|a DJ]] being held hostage. The trio find the [["Thrills at Night"]] disc, round up the faceless Toads, and summon the next of Olly's enforcers: [[Hole Punch]]. After defeating Hole Punch, Mario destroys the yellow streamer and frees the desert sun. The trio head to the newly-opened [[Sun Altar]], and find Captain T. Ode preserved in a block of ice. Olivia frees the captain, who heads off in search of his old submarine, the [[Super Marino]]. Mario and Olivia follow the captain, while Professor Toad stays behind in the desert.

===Purple streamer===
[[File:PMTOK Sea Tower entrance.png|thumb|Mario arrives at the [[Sea Tower]]]]
Returning the Toad Town, Mario and Olivia find Captain T. Ode, who reclaims ownership of his own submarine. The sub is attached to Sea Captain Toad's ship, and T. Ode, Mario, and Olivia head out into the Great Sea. After clearing the thick fog that covers the sea, they discover the source of the purple streamer at the [[Sea Tower]], but are unable to enter without the three orbs located in [[Diamond Island]]. They travel between many islands, eventually meeting up with Luigi on [[Mushroom Island]], who holds the key to Diamond Island. The brothers decide to find the island's resident and free the [[Origami Craftsman]] from the walls of his workshop. The craftsman reveals he created King Olly for the Origami Festival using the forbidden Fold of Life. Olly turned on his creator and set out to fold the world in his image, using the Origami Craftsman's notes to fold Olivia. The craftsman shares a set of notes with Olivia before she head back to the ship with Mario.
 
Mario and Olivia use the key Luigi obtained to access the submerged Diamond Island, where three temples stand, housing the Trials of Power, Wisdom, and Courage; and the nearby [[Ice Vellumental Mountain]]. The duo must travel up the mountain and defeat the [[Ice Vellumental]] at its peak. After defeating the final Vellumental, Olivia gains the ability to fold into it and utilize its ice powers to access the Trials of Wisdom and Courage. After completing all three trials, Mario and Olivia turn to the Sea Tower and climb up to its peak. At the top, they face off against [[Tape (boss)|Tape]], and upon the stationery's defeat, Mario destroys the purple streamer.
 
===Green streamer===
[[File:PMTOK Bowser Jr hot spring.png|thumb|left|200px|Bowser Jr., Kamek, Mario, and Olivia resting in the hot spring]]
Mario and Olivia notice the green streamer peeking out from above the clouds. A mysterious light appears on top of the Sea Tower, and stepping into it transports them to [[Shangri-Spa]], where [[Bowser's Castle]] had crash-landed. The duo meets up with [[Kamek]], who is unable to return to the castle due to the folded [[Boss Sumo Bro]] guarding the entrance. [[Bowser Jr.]] flies in, whose [[Junior Clown Car]] would allow access to Boss Sumo Bro, but is shredded by another one of Olly's generals: [[Scissors (boss)|Scissors]]. Kamek reluctantly joins up with Mario and Olivia, and the group travels to four of the spa's springs in order to revive Jr. However, when Jr. soaks in the [[Spring of Jungle Mist]] for too long, he ends up losing his color. The group travels to the [[Spring of Rainbows]], which involves winning the game show [[Shy Guys Finish Last]]. The spring restores Bowser Jr.'s color, allowing him to take Mario up to Boss Sumo Bro. The boss is defeated, allowing the group and all of Bowser's minion access to Bowser's Castle again.
 
Bowser's minions start a large clash with the Folded Soldiers, while Mario, Olivia, and Kamek search for the key to the throne room, which Kamek believes to be in his quarters. Along the way, Kamek disappears, but Mario is able to find the castle key in the hands of Luigi, who once again mistook it for the key to Peach's Castle. Soon after, Olivia is snatched by a shadowy hand and all of Bowser's minions disappear as well. On the way to the throne room, Mario battles [[Big Cutout Soldier|Big]] and [[Li'l Cutout Soldier]]s, until reaching the creature that captured Olivia, the [[Handaconda]], whom Mario defeats in a game of {{wp|rock paper scissors}}. In the following room, the duo finds the cut-up remains of Bowser's minions. They then face off against the [[Paper Mistake Buzzy Beetle]], created by Scissors, before fighting Scissors itself. After defeating both bosses, Mario is able to revive Bowser's minions, free Bowser, and destroy the green streamer.
 
===Origami Castle===
[[File:PMTOK Origami Castle.jpg|thumb|200px|King Olly transforms Peach's Castle into the Origami Castle]]
Bowser mobilizes his army, along with Mario and Olivia, onto a new [[airship]], which they use to travel to Peach's Castle. However, they are intercepted by the [[Paper Plane Squadron]], and one large jet dives into the airship, causing the ship to crash into Hotfoot Crater. Mario, Olivia, Kamek, and Bowser Jr. are chased up the volcano by a horde of Paper Macho Goombas, with Kamek and Bowser Jr. staying behind to keep back the horde. Mario and Olivia meet up with Bowser, and the three use the airship cannon to launch to the ground outside of Peach's Castle. Luigi meets up with them, who inadvertently had the key to the castle lodged in his kart's tailpipe. Inside, the group is greeted by Origami Peach, before Olly refolds Peach's Castle into Origami Castle.
 
Mario, Olivia, and Bowser travel through the newly folded castle and eventually reach Olly, who summons the [[Stapler (boss)|Stapler]]. After defeating the final Legion of Stationary member, Bowser finally manages to unfold himself. After a pep talk from Bowser to raise Olivia's spirits, the trio confronts King Olly in his throne room. Inside, they attempt to reason with Olly, before realizing Peach has been folded into the rear wall of the throne room. Olly reveals that his grudge against the Toads originates from a scribble the Origami Craftsman left, which Olly believes was left carelessly. He has already folded 999 origami cranes and intends to use Mario to create the final crane, which will grant him his wish to turn every Toad into blank scraps. Olly engages in battle against Mario and Olivia, using his own versions of the Vellumentals. After being defeated by Olivia's Vellumentals, Olly folds himself into a large sumo wrestler, which Olivia counteracts by folding Bowser into a giant origami sumo wrestler. Mario assists Bowser in knocking Olly off the platform, but Olly rises again as a giant version of his normal self and unleashes his inner rage which turns into a poisonous gas. Olivia summons a massive Magic Circle, which when completed, transforms Olivia into the design given to her by the Origami Craftsman: a giant hammer, defeating Olly for good.
 
In Olly's final moments, Olivia discovers the scribble on him and reveals it was actually a hopeful message that he become a good king. Repentant, Olly entrusts his 999 cranes to Olivia and allows her to use his body as the final one. Luigi, Kamek, and Bowser Jr. arrive with the Origami Craftsman who instructs Olivia on how to make a paper crane. She then wishes to undo all the origami her brother folded, including herself. The thousand cranes grant her wish and carry Peach's Castle back to its proper place in Toad Town. Everyone lands outside the castle along with a restored Princess Peach, and realizes that Olivia is absent.
 
[[File:PMTOK Thank You.jpg|thumb|Everyone prepares to release paper lanterns to give thanks to all the origami.]]
That night, the Mushroom Kingdom and Bowser's army celebrate the Origami Festival together. The Origami Craftsman reveals his contribution: the original, scaled-down Origami Castle, complete with thrones for the two origami siblings. Mario expresses his sadness over Olivia's sacrifice, but Peach insists that she is still with them in spirit. To finish the celebrations, everyone releases paper lanterns into the night sky in honor of origami. Afterwards, the Mario Bros. drive home as the credits roll.
 
[[File:PMTOK Secret Ending.png|thumb|left|Olivia and Olly sit on their thrones if the game is completed 100%]]
If the player achieves 100% completion and defeats the final boss, the photos receive golden frames, and a post-credits scene plays in which the Origami Craftsman places miniatures of Olly and Olivia beside each other on his castle in the center of Toad Town.

The overworld exploration is similar to the series' standard, though the combat system is different from ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'': Mario can rotate a circular floor and create lines of enemies to attack, although the number of moves and the time are limited. [[Olivia]], a character new to the franchise, has a role similar to [[Kersti]] and [[Huey]] from ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' respectively. She grants Mario [[1,000-Fold Arms|extended origami arms]] that are used to interact with the environment. Additionally, partners return, which include [[Koopa Troop]] members such as a [[Bob-omb]] that ally with Mario.<ref name=Trailer/>

}}
The overworld exploration is quite different from the series' standard; whereas the previous three games were either sorted into individual chapters or levels, ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' switches to a completely open-world style of progression, with Mario being able to travel to any of the game's locales completely on foot like the first two games. The game's combat system has also been overhauled: at the start of each turn, Mario can rotate and slide rings of a circular battle arena, lining up enemies for consecutive attacks, although the number of ring moves and allotted time are limited. Performing a [[First Strike]] deals preemptive damage to a single enemy, and as Mario's HP increases, First Strikes will be able to defeat certain enemies without going into battle against them. Mario has permanent Boots and Hammer attacks and may equip stronger variants that break after a while, and timed button presses can increase damage when attacking. Lining up the enemies successfully will [[POW-Up|increase Mario's attack power]] by a factor of 1.5. [[Coin]]s can be spent to extend the time limit (at a rate of 10 coins per second), or call the [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s [[List of hidden Toads in Paper Mario: The Origami King|that have been saved]] to assist Mario in battle. Boss battles use a different system in which the player rotates and slides the rings to line up arrows, making a path for Mario to attack.
 
[[Olivia]], a character new to the franchise, has a role similar to [[Kersti]] and [[Huey]] from ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' respectively. Once a [[Vellumentals|Vellumental]] is defeated, Olivia can transform into the Vellumental while standing on [[Magic Circle]]s, an ability that carries over into battle. Additionally, partners return to ally with Mario and aid him in battles, including [[Bob-omb (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Bob-omb]] and [[Kamek]]. They will automatically attack enemies after Mario has used up all his given moves, although there is a chance their attacks will be unsuccessful. Various partners join and leave Mario's party at various points in the story.
 
Accessories grant Mario benefits both in battle and on the overworld. Toads can be found on the overworld, folded into various shapes. Hitting these Toads with the hammer will cause them to unfold and return to [[Toad Town]], some of which open shops. The Toads that have been saved can even help in battle if the player spends coins using the Cheer command. These Toads will fight enemies, heal Mario, give items, and solve puzzles. Mario can gain confetti by using his [[Hammer]] on trees, grass, and enemies. This confetti can be used to fill [[Not-Bottomless Hole]]s torn in the landscape, revealing Coins or restoring objects.
 
In the settings menu, there is an option to control certain aspects of the game with motion controls or entirely with the controller buttons. This applies to the 1,000-Fold Arms, [[fishing spot|fishing]], and the [[Super Marino]]. Three settings are locked with four question marks. They are unlocked by going to the [[Battle Lab]]. The first unlockable setting offers hints for battles with the [[Puzzle Solver]], the second adds time to each battle's clock with the [[Timer Extender]], and the third lets the player control the amount added.

===Bosses===
====Vellumentals====
The [[Vellumentals]] are a group of four bosses that act as mid-bosses for their respective streamers. After defeating one, it releases a [[Bibliofold]] that Olivia reads to learn how to fold herself into the Vellumental.

|-
|[[File:PMTOK Earth Vellumental.png|200px]]
|[[Earth Vellumental]]
|A giant quadrupedal turtle that can spew sand and manipulate earth, similar to the {{wp|Black Tortoise}}. It is fought in the [[Earth Vellumental Temple]]. To defeat it, Mario must hammer each of its limbs, then its tail. It flips over and is vulnerable to [[1,000-Fold Arms]] attacks.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Water Vellumental.png|200px]]
|[[Water Vellumental]]
|A water-spouting dragon similar to the {{wp|Azure Dragon}}, found in the [[Water Vellumental Shrine]]. It absorbs more water each round and eventually charges up a big wave attack, which Mario can avoid by using Olivia's Earth Vellumental's ability. The Water Vellumental is weak to jump attacks, which cause it to collapse and make it vulnerable to hammers.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Fire Vellumental.png|200px]]
|[[Fire Vellumental]]
|A phoenix similar to the {{wp|Vermilion Bird}}, located in the [[Fire Vellumental Cave]]. Each round, it sheds some of its burning feathers onto the arena, and Mario takes damage if he walks over them. The Water Vellumental's ability can extinguish the feathers and make the Fire Vellumental vulnerable to the 1,000-Fold Arms.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Ice Vellumental.png|200px]]
|[[Ice Vellumental]]
|A giant polar bear with large claws similar to the {{wp|White Tiger (mythology)|White Tiger}}. It resides in the [[Ice Vellumental Mountain]] on [[Diamond Island]]. It can freeze panels on the arena and make them unusable, only thawing with the Fire Vellumental's power or through sliding them. When it is low on health, the Ice Vellumental uses its Ice Maze ability, creating slush on the board and forcing Mario to navigate it to reach the 1,000-Fold Arms panel.
|}
 
====Legion of Stationery====
The [[Legion of Stationery]] are sentient tools. They guard the ends of each [[streamer]] and act as the primary bosses for their respective streamers, besides Stapler. Notably, each member of the Legion of Stationery has a color representing the streamer they guard, such as [[Colored Pencils]] guarding the red streamer spool and having a red lid.

|[[File:PMTOK Colored Pencils.jpg|200px]]
|[[Colored Pencils]] (The Missile Maestro)
|The guardian of the red streamer fought on [[Overlook Tower]]. Colored Pencils has crosshairs on its battle arena, firing pencil missiles at Mario if he crosses them. To defeat it, Mario has to navigate behind it and slam its lid shut with the 1,000-Fold Arms or a hammer attack. When it has taken enough damage, Colored Pencils charges a Rainbow Roll attack. Mario must grab the pencils and slam them into the case to defeat the boss.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Rubber Band.png|200px]]
|[[Rubber Band]] (The Elastic Entertainer)
|A yellow rubber band wrapped in many other rubber bands. It guards the blue streamer at [[Big Sho' Theater]]. Rubber Band shoots its rubber bands on the arena, pushing Mario if he walks over them. To defeat the boss, Mario must get close to it and use the 1,000-Fold Arms to pull bands off of its head; using regular attacks removes the rubber bands, but Rubber Band pulls them back onto its body to nullify the attack.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Hole Punch.png|200px]]
|[[Hole Punch]] (The Disco Devil)
|The guardian of the yellow streamer in the [[Temple of Shrooms]]. Hole Punch can punch out panels on the board, trapping Mario if he falls in the holes. Additionally, it can remove parts of Mario's body, lowering his maximum HP. Hitting the backside of Hole Punch frees some of the holes it has removed. To defeat Hole Punch, Mario has to peel off its lid with the 1,000-Fold Arms.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Tape.png|200px]]
|[[Tape (boss)|Tape]] (The Shifty Sticker)
|Tape is the boss of the purple streamer area, found on top of the [[Sea Tower]]. Mario must destroy its dispenser with hammer attacks, reducing the boss to just the roll of tape. It then rolls around the arena, taping together panels to prevent them from being slid, and taping certain rings so they are rotated together. The tape can be removed with the Fire Vellumental's ability. When using the 1,000-Fold Arms, Mario flips Tape upside down and pulls the tape away.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Scissors.png|200px]]
|[[Scissors (boss)|Scissors]] (The Dual-Bladed Duelist)
|Scissors is the last streamer boss, fought in [[Bowser's Castle]] at the green streamer. At first, Scissors has its blades covered and warns Mario not to break them. After taking enough damage, it unsheathes on its own, and Mario instantly gets a [[Game Over]] if he jumps on it. Scissors will also remove panels from the board by cutting them apart. To damage Scissors, Mario must freeze it with the Ice Vellumental power, then use the 1,000-Fold Arms to break the ice chunk.
|-
|[[File:PMTOK Stapler.png|200px]]
|[[Stapler (boss)|Stapler]] (The Fanged Fastener)
|Unlike the other Legion of Stationary bosses, Stapler does not guard a streamer, instead being fought in [[Origami Castle]] before [[King Olly]]. Stapler attempts to staple Mario on the board, preventing him from moving and allowing it to deal more damage. When attacked, Stapler loses some of its staples. Eventually, it fires all of its staples in succession at Mario, being equipped with a stronger tier of staples afterwards. Stapler is weak to the 1,000-Fold Arms, which can remove over half of its staples.

|[[File:PMTOK Boss Sumo Bro appears.png|200px]]
|[[Boss Sumo Bro]]
|Boss Sumo Bro guards [[Bowser's Castle]] and is fought in [[Shangri-Spa]] as the first mid-boss for the green streamer. It fights alongside six [[Sumo Bro]]s.: four who have stolen panels on the arena and two who ride on thunderclouds. When Mario defeats the four Sumo Bros., the Boss Sumo Bro and the other two thundercloud Sumo Bros. drop down onto the arena and charge a thunder attack. They can be defeated with the Earth and Fire Vellumental powers.
|-
|[[File:Handaconda.png|200px]]
|[[Handaconda]]
|Handaconda is a black, cutout hand that is fought in Bowser's Castle, acting as the second mid-boss for the green streamer. It harms Mario when jumped on, and can only be attacked while in the second and third rows of rings. Mid-battle, Handaconda transforms panels into Rock-Paper-Scissors icons. When Mario wins the match, he uses a rush attack on Handaconda to damage it.
|-
|[[File:PMOK King Olly Final Form.png|200px]]
|[[King Olly]]
|King Olly is the game's main antagonist and final boss, battled in [[Origami Castle]]. In his first phase, he transforms into the Vellumentals and must be countered with Olivia's Vellumental powers. In the second phase, he turns into origami sumo, and Olivia transforms Bowser to help fight him. Mario must run around the arena and use the 1,000-Fold Arms to pound the ground where Bowser is, allowing him to overpower Olly and push him off the edge. In the third phase, Olivia uses a special Magic Circle that Olly scrambles. Mario must arrange the circle while Olly attacks him every five seconds; Mario can dodge these attacks with proper timing. Finally, Olivia turns into the Olivia Hammer, and Mario must rush attack Olly to send him off the arena and defeat him.

*''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'': The effect of POW Blocks on Sidesteppers allude to this game, where both debuted. Hitting a POW Block causes a Sidestepper to flip over. If a red Sidestepper is left flipped for a certain amount of time, it turns blue.

*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': When Mario grabs the top of the [[Goal Pole]] and slides down it for the first time at [[Picnic Road]], a [[Fireworks|firework]] shoots into the sky while an arrangement of the "course cleared" fanfare plays, similar to when the player clears a level with the timer's last digit at 1, 3, or 6 in this game. One of Colored Pencils' drawings is of Mario's death sprite from this game.

*''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'': When trying to recall the term "amnesia", Bob-omb mentions "Thinky Thinky Panic", a reference to this game's title.
*''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'': After Mario rescues Birdo in [[Big Sho' Theater]], she says that she has "Mario madness." The English cover for ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' features the subtitle "Mario Madness," and the game was Birdo's first appearance. Additionally, the Musée Champignon description for the [[Black Shy Guy]] states that it throws [[turnip]]-like objects, referencing the throwing mechanic from this game.
*''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'': Olivia mentions [[Angry Sun|the sun being angry]] in Scorching Sandpaper Desert. Portions of [[Chestnut Valley]]'s music are based on this game's athletic theme.
*''[[Super Mario World]]'': The fireball and spin jump sounds are reused from this game.
*''[[Super Mario 64]]'': An arrangement of "[[Inside the Castle Walls]]" plays when Mario and Luigi arrive at Peach's Castle in the opening.
*''[[Paper Mario]]'': Peach's castle's interior looks similar to the one used in this game, and Peach's design from this game appears as a photo. The moves [[Headbonk]] and [[Shell Shot]] are reused from this game. In addition, enemy Koopas may team up to perform a Tower Attack nearly identical to the one the [[Koopa Bros.]] can use, and enemy Paratroopas can use a Dive Kick similar to [[Parakarry]]'s.
*''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'': [[The Great Sea]] is an overall reference to this game's main setting. The way that Mario navigates the Great Sea is a reference to this game's main navigation mechanic. A few islands in the Great Sea are references to a few islands from this game; [[Heart Island]] is a reference to each of the Fairy Islands, [[Scuffle Island]] is a reference to Star Island since both islands require the player to fight multiple enemies to earn a special item, and Crescent Moon Island (before it becomes [[Full Moon Island]]) is a reference to this game's Crescent Moon Island respectively. Mario having to collect the three orbs to enter the [[Sea Tower]] is a reference to how Link has to collect the three pearls to be able to enter the Tower of the Gods.
*''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'': To reach a book on the shelf in the [[Origami Craftsman]]'s workshop, Mario and Luigi perform a similar [[High Jump]] to that of this game.
*''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'': Peach's design from this game appears as a photo. Additionally, when Mario and Bob-omb interact with the steering wheel on [[the Princess Peach]], the latter mentions that he dreams of being an admiral someday, in reference to [[Admiral Bobbery]].
*''[[Super Paper Mario]]'': Peach appears in a photo with her parasol and a background resembling [[Lineland]]. Some of the [[Sammer's Kingdom]]'s OST is incorporated into the music for Shogun Studios.
*''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'': A slow-paced arrangement of [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]]'s music plays in the [[Tranquil Pipes Teahouse]] at Shogun Studios.
*''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'': Some of Bowser Jr.'s voice clips are reused from this game.
*''[[metroidwiki:Metroid: Other M|Metroid: Other M]]'': If Mario tries on the Space Warrior Mask, Bob-omb comments on how the helmet would look better on "some other kind of M."
*''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'': Shiny and flashy attacks return from this game. In addition, Peach appears in a photo, surrounded by stickers. Additionally, the fan that blows the fog away in Bonehead Island, the Scissors boss and the basin used in the Trial of Courage resemble their respective Things in the game. The music of the main boss introductions is incorporated into the music of the Vellumental's introductions.
*''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'': Some of the voice clips are recycled from this game. The [[Goomba Mask]] returns from this game. Luigi's running pose and Peach's floating pose in the ending are based on their respective animations from this game.
*''[[Mario Kart 8]]'': Like in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', Luigi drives a [[Standard Kart]] resembling the ones in this game.
*''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'': ''The Origami King'' runs on a very similar graphical engine to ''Color Splash''. The paint-coated graphic effect is used when a Toad aboard the Princess Peach is covered in ink. Mario can again hammer characters to temporarily crumple them. Princess Peach's design from that game also appears as a photo in the game. The [[Rescue Squad]]s return in the [[Battle Lab]]. [[The Emerald Circus]] and the [[Violet Passage captain]]'s pirate ship appear in paintings in [[Overlook Tower]]. When Captain T. Ode introduces himself after being thawed out by Olivia in her Fire Vellumental form, the [[Fortune Island]] music is reused, lacking the intro and bell quips of the tune. Additionally, steaks identical to the one fought in [[Tangerino Grill]] are found when T. Ode is freed. [[Bonehead Island]] looks very similar to Fortune Island, and includes multiple design similarities. The music on Bonehead Island is very similar to the Violet Passage theme. When the player completes Bonehead Island, a realistic fan that has the same appearance as the Fan Thing from this game (which actually originated from ''Sticker Star'') emerges from the sea and blows the mist away, similar to the scene when the Fan is being used in Violet Passage to get the ship to set sail. A [[Shy Guy]] with a straw similar to a [[Slurp Guy]] appears in the Tranquil Pipes Teahouse and gives Mario his straw. The [[Spring of Rainbows]] bears a resemblance to [[Prisma Fountain]], although in a more papercraft-like appearance. The way [[Bowser Jr.]] restores his colors from it also resembles the paint mechanic in this game. One Toad in Toad Town mentions that he needs to find "an expert on bridge experts", referencing the bridge builder and the bridge builder expert that appear in [[Port Prisma]]. Two [[Whistle Snifit]]s are found in the Spring of Rainbows' cafe. The way the basin crushes Mario in the Trial of Courage is similar to how the Basin Thing crushes him at [[Fort Cobalt]]. The faceless Toads resemble the faceless cardboard cutout of the [[Mountain Sage]] on the top of [[Daffodil Peak]]. When approaching the [[Spring of Jungle Mist]], Kamek mentions that he has "dealt with giant trees before," a nod to the [[Mondo Woods]] area.
*''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild]]'': The climbing mechanic from this game is referenced when a Toad climbing a cliff in [[Autumn Mountain]] tells Mario that it would be more difficult to climb the cliff if it was raining, just like in this game where Link slides down cliffs if he climbs them while it is raining.
 
==References in other games==
*''[[Tetris 99]]'': A theme based on ''Origami King'' was made available during the 15th Maximus Cup.
*''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'': A [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate#Spirit Board|Spirit Board]] [[smashwiki:Paper Mario: The Origami King|event]] themed after ''Origami King'' ran from August 28, 2020 until September 2, 2020. Origami Peach, Olivia, and King Olly [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirits]] appear at random during the event. The 3 spirits were later available on the Spirit Board as normal spirits.
*''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'': A [[Paper Mario: The Origami King (microgame)|microgame]] based on ''Origami King'' appears in this game, in which Mario must use the 1,000-Fold Arms.
 
==Similarities to the other ''Paper Mario'' games==
*Like the original game and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|its sequel]], Mario and Luigi receive an invitation from Princess Peach.
**Although Peach gives Mario a letter in ''Color Splash'', said letter is actually a color-drained Toad.
*In combat, Mario's basic jump and hammer attacks are permanent, like in the first two games.
*Like in the first and second games, Mario can use most types of recovery items outside of battle as well as in battle.
*Partners return from the first three games.
*Just like in the second and third games, Bowser is not the primary villain. Rather, Mario and Bowser team up, as they do in ''Super Paper Mario''.
*Just like in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Peach is turned evil by the main antagonist, similarly to the [[Shadow Queen]].
*Like in ''Super Paper Mario'', Luigi has a significant role throughout the game’s plot and is a party member for parts of the game.
*Like in all of the previous games, there is a quiz show, in this case, ''[[Shy Guys Finish Last]]''.
*Mario can use confetti to fill in Non-Bottomless Holes, similarly to using paint to fill in colorless spots in ''Color Splash''. Like paint, confetti is limited.
*Like the previous two games, there is a performance starring Birdo.
*Like the first game, Peach's Castle gets taken over by the main antagonist, is lifted to a higher location, leaves a hole in the ground from where it normally sits and requires finishing every chapter to return to it (as well as taking some kind of flying vehicle to get close to it).
*Like in the first four games, Mario fights a [[Blooper]] as a boss.
*Like in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', battles take place in front of an audience, and the audience can interact with Mario.
**However, the audience only consists of Toads, the number of audience members depends on the rescued Toads, they need to be paid to influence the battle, and they do not attack Mario for a bad "performance".
*Like in the previous three games, Mario has a permanent travelling companion who can float and sacrifices themselves in the end, in this case, Olivia.
*Like in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', the main antagonist has taken control of some of Bowser's minions.
*Shiny and Flashy variants of attacks return from ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''.
*Like the previous three games, in-game materials show the logos for Nintendo and Intelligent Systems.
*Like ''Sticker Star'', MAX UP Hearts are used as a level-up mechanic.
*Bowser's Castle floats as it does in the original game and the previous two games.
*Like ''Color Splash'', each save file is tied to a user profile. Because of this, they cannot be copied or deleted within the game, and are tied to each user profile of the [[Nintendo Switch]]. Since the Switch can have up to eight user profiles, this translates to eight save files, compared to four from the first three games, three from the fourth installment, and twelve from ''Color Splash'' (since the [[Wii U]] can support up to twelve user profiles). The difference is that in ''Color Splash'', the user profile is loaded before the game is started, while in ''Origami King'', the user profile is selected past the title screen.
*The Iron Boots, Hurlhammer, and Fire Hammer return from the previous two games.
**The Ice Hammer returns from ''Sticker Star''.
*If Mario enters the area with [[Ol' Grandsappy]] for the first time and tries to leave the area, he ends up in the same place. This is similar to [[Forever Forest]] in ''Paper Mario'' and [[The Bafflewood]] in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'', which in itself are references to the [[zeldawiki:Lost Woods|Lost Woods]] in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' series.
*Much like in ''Super Paper Mario'', Mario can optionally change his sound effects to old-school ones; in this case, it can be done via the [[Retro Soundbox]] accessory.
*In Big Sho' Theater, one of the red and green Paper Macho Koopa Troopas respectively wear sunglasses similar to the enemy Koopa Troopas from the first three games.
*Like in ''Color Splash'', Luigi has voice clips by Charles Martinet while Mario does not.
 
==Differences from the other ''Paper Mario'' games==
*The battle system in this entry is puzzle-based rather than a more direct, turn-based system.
*This is the first game in the series and in ''Super Mario'' role-playing games overall in which Bowser is not fought at any point in the game.
*This is the first game in the series where the overall objective does not involve finding any major collectibles (e.g. the [[Crystal Stars]] or [[Pure Heart]]s), rather to destroy giant streamers blocking Peach's Castle.
*Save prompts now have a distinctive look, separate from normal text boxes.
*When getting a [[Game Over]], an option to restart from the last save (or in the case of minigames and the final boss, to try again) is now available.
*When Mario gets hit by a [[First Strike]], he can no longer block the attack.
**A sound and impact effect do not play when this happens in the overworld.
*The text "The End" does not show up at all in the credits.
*Unlike most other installments, the game does not end with a parade, but rather a series of screenshots can be seen during the credits, like in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Unlike in these games, though, these photos take place after the events of the story, rather than during them.
*Mario's hammer is rendered as a three-dimensional object, rather than 2D.
*The game saves automatically when moving between different locations, similar to the saving behavior in the world map from the previous two games.
*The touchscreen is no longer used as an alternative input for [[Action Command]]s, due to the Switch powering only one video source, unlike the [[Wii U]].
*There are no defense items such as Spike Helmets.
*This is the first game in the series that does not include an arrangement of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] in the main soundtrack. The only time this theme can be heard is when Mario buys the engine upgrade for Sea Captain Toad's boat; the sound effects of it being installed mimic the theme in question.
*Unlike past ''Super Mario'' role-playing games, the entire game does not use the same regular battle theme for every location. A different arrangement of the battle theme is used for each streamer area.
 
==Staff==

The game was directed by Masahiko Nagaya, who was the art director of [[Paper Mario: Color Splash|the previous installment]], the game's art was directed by Isamu Kamikokuryo, ex-[[Square Enix|Square]] art director of the ''Final Fantasy'' series, and produced by [[Kensuke Tanabe]] and Atsushi Ikuno.
 
==Reception==
===Critical response===
''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the expansive overworld, graphics, writing, and plot, though its combat system received mixed reactions, being praised for its innovation but criticized for being tedious, unrewarding and lacking complexity. While considered an improvement over ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star|Sticker Star]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash|Color Splash]]'', it was also criticized for many of the same reasons as its predecessors: lack of originality, low variation in characters and their design, few original characters, the absence of traditional RPG elements, and little incentive on combat.

|3/5
|''Despite everything, Paper Mario: The Origami King is a charming game. I wanted to fully explore every area of the Mushroom Kingdom. I wanted to find every Toad. I wanted to do everything except actually engage with the game's combat system. In trying to rewrite the basic rules with every outing, Intelligent Systems keeps fans of the franchise on its toes. But that can also start to distort the identity of the series itself. How can you perfect a formula if you’re constantly pouring it out and starting again?''

|''The Origami King is a truly likeable game despite the shallowness of its new spin on gameplay. Its characters are winsome, its visual design is gorgeous, its world is fun to explore, and its storytelling is outside the box and playful. At the same time, however, it could be so much more. Combat is largely unfulfilling, and your journey as a whole lacks meaningful choices. For a series with RPG roots, that's a real shame.''

|''There's room in my heart for both styles of Paper Mario. The old games still exist and this newer, sometimes thinner formula is fine too. That said, it's possible Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have folded this subseries every which way they can at this point. I hope the next one is a little more fresh.''

|8/10
|''With a newfound combat system that steals the show and offers a novel take on turn-based combat, its winking, nodding, and adventuring shine all the brighter. Its world and characters might not be the series' best, but it's still able to consistently throw left turns, good gags, and smart surprises at you. Each piece of The Origami King elegantly fits into its whole, taking its irreverent flair to new heights. The Paper Mario series has recently shown that being clever and being smart are two different things, but thankfully, it's once again managed to be both.''

|''That simplicity is overridden by originality and vigor, then – but I also know all too well that some fans of the older Paper Mario games will once again walk away a little disappointed. This is still undoubtedly no Thousand Year Door. Perhaps the next outing can bring back a little of that RPG depth – but regardless of that, this is still the best Paper Mario game in years.''

==Glitches==
{{main|List of Paper Mario: The Origami King glitches}}
===Semi-dead enemy glitch===
If a wave battle is supposed to start, but only one enemy is alive and another is in their death animation, it will still initiate a wave battle and consider both enemies alive.
===Sumo Bro softlock===
During the second phase of the Boss Sumo Bro rematch in the Battle Lab, defeating the Boss Sumo Bro with a POW Block without defeating the two Sumo Bros beforehand will cause the game to soft-lock.
===VIP pass softlock===
Before the version 1.0.1 update,<ref>https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/50130/~/how-to-update-paper-mario%3A-the-origami-king</ref> in Shangri-Spa, after obtaining the VIP pass to access the Spring of Rainbows, if the player left the path to the Spring of Rainbows after entering, the VIP pass would disappear from the menu. If the player then spoke to the Toad at the reception, they would not have the stamp card and there would be no way to get another one. Saving after this point would permanently prevent the player from progressing.<ref>https://youtu.be/4cLFZ9_S0GI</ref>
