'''''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 sixth installment in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series, 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]].

[[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.
[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] drive into [[Toad Town]], looking forward to the Origami Festival that [[Princess Peach]] has invited them to. Upon arrival, the brothers notice that the town and [[Peach's Castle]] are deserted, and the doors of the castle lock behind them. While Luigi runs off to search for a key, Mario heads into the foyer, where he meets Peach, who has been folded into origami. Peach drops him into a hidden dungeon, where several of [[Bowser]]'s minions are being held. Mario discovers a [[Magic Circle]] and initiates the [[1,000-Fold Arms]] for the first time, using them to free a trapped origami girl called [[Olivia]]. After escaping the holding cell, Mario and Olivia free a square-folded Bowser.


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.

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.
Mario frees himself from a tree in a forest near Toad Town, and after rescuing Olivia, quickly notices Peach's Castle. Both of them set out to destroy the five streamers, find Luigi, and defeat Olly. Their search begins in the [[Whispering Woods]], where they are trapped by [[Ol' Grandsappy]] who wants to be restored to his former glory. Mario manages to find the [[Soul Seed]] to do so and is allowed to leave. They later arrive in the ravaged and deserted Toad Town, where they encounter [[Paper Macho Goomba]]s. Upon defeating them, they decide to search the remains of the castle for clues, traveling through the [[Graffiti Underground]]. The duo manages to find Luigi, who quickly sets out to assist Mario by hunting down 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.
Deciding to follow the red streamer first, they travel to [[Picnic Road]], where they find the door to the [[Earth Vellumental Temple]] locked, and four of the five [[Shell Stone]]s required to open it all stolen by Folded Soldiers. Mario explores [[Overlook Mountain]] to find them. Inside, Mario comes across the turtle-like god, who has been folded into origami and has no choice but to fight and defeat it. Afterwards, Olivia gains the ability to transform into the Vellumental and uses her new power to access [[Overlook Tower]]. At the top, the duo confronts the [[Colored Pencils]] and they manage to thwart it by using its missiles against it. Following this, the red streamer is finally destroyed.

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 and Olivia visit a tram station that takes them to [[Autumn Mountain]], where the blue streamer leads. On the way, they meet [[Bob-omb (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Bob-omb]], a happy-go-lucky amnesiac, whom Olivia nicknames Bobby. They decide to let him tag along, and after getting sidetracked in [[Chestnut Valley]], they find and unseal the [[Water Vellumental Shrine]]. After defeating the [[Water Vellumental]], who has also been folded into origami, Olivia can refill a dry lake and overflow the [[Eddy River]]. Finding a gondola's oarsman, they are finally able to boat over the rocky obstacles and arrive at [[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.
The trio enters the park to find it all but deserted, where they are tasked with rescuing the park's staff, who are trapped in the high castle tower. Mario sets out to look for the park's master key, eventually leading him to the [[Ninja Attraction]]. Inside, he finds and rescues Luigi, who presents the key, having mistaken it for the key to Peach's Castle. Undeterred, Luigi leaves to continue his search, as Mario reopens the park and eventually unlocks the tower's gate and enters [[Big Sho' Theater]]. After watching and starring in three different performances, Mario and the gang are confronted by the [[Rubber Band]], whom they defeat. With the theme park saved, the gang celebrates their victory with some fireworks, which jog Bob-omb's memories, and sets off to continue their quest.

Destroying the blue streamer allows the trio to continue downriver to [[Sweetpaper Valley]], where King Olly ambushes them, crushing Olivia beneath a giant boulder and blocking the way forward. Remembering a way to save Olivia, Bob-omb insists that he and Mario hurry to [[the Great Sea]] near the purple streamer with [[Sea Captain Toad]], whom they rescued back on Autumn Mountain. They stumble across a cruise ship called [[the Princess Peach]], which Bob-omb recalls. After restoring the ship's power and rescuing the crew, they manage to find the suite Bob-omb stayed in, where the very item he's looking for is stored within a lockbox. Before they can open it, the Paper Macho [[Gooper Blooper]] arrives and snatches it, forcing Mario to fight him. Heading back to the valley, Bob-omb discloses his tragic backstory. He then reveals that the object he wanted to find was his friend's fuse, which he ignites to destroy the boulder, saving Olivia and sacrificing himself in the process. Olivia is disheartened by this and runs off into [[Breezy Tunnel]]. Mario manages to cheer her up by donning a [[Goomba Mask]] after Bob-omb's ghost suggests he try to make Olivia laugh again.

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.

Mario and Olivia press on, heading out into the [[Scorching Sandpaper Desert]], which is shrouded in darkness with a black hole where the sun should be. They continue to [[Shroom City (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Snif City]] to find answers. At the hotel, they learn of a guest named [[Professor Toad]] who is pursuing the legend of [[Captain T. Ode|Khap'taan Teeowed]]. They find him back out in the desert, freeing him from the inside of a [[Mega Paper Macho Pokey]]. After the professor is convinced to join the party, they head back to the hotel, using the second floor's murals as clues to solve the ruins' puzzle.

Returning to Toad Town, the two find Captain T. Ode at the [[Musée Champignon]], where his old submarine is being kept as an exhibit. After the museum owner reluctantly returns it, it is attached to the back of Sea Captain Toad's ship. Navigating through the thick fog over the Great Sea, the gang comes across [[Bonehead Island]] where they clear the fog. The gang soon discover the [[Sea Tower]], where the purple streamer seems to end, but find that they cannot access it without finding three orbs located in [[Diamond Island]].
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 (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|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.

[[File:PMTOK Sea Tower entrance.png|left|200px|thumb|Mario arrives at the [[Sea Tower]]]]
While searching for the island, nearly finds the key on [[Full Moon Island]], only to find a note from Luigi instead who has claimed it. Meeting up on [[Mushroom Island]], Luigi once again presents Mario with the wrong key. Nonetheless, he sticks around to help his brother find the island's main resident, freeing the [[Origami Craftsman]] from the wall of his workshop. He explains that he created King Olly as part of a display for the Origami Festival, but did so with 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 to life, intending to share the kingdom with her. Determined anew to stop Olly and rescue Peach, Luigi sets off to find the key to Peach's Castle, and Mario and Olivia depart for Diamond Island, though not before the Origami Craftsman shares another set of notes with Olivia.


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.
Mario and Olivia use the key to access Diamond Island, which is completely submerged. Mario and Olivia discover several temples leading to the Trials of Power, Wisdom, and Courage, though the latter two cannot be accessed without the [[Ice Vellumental]]'s powers, which they gain by traversing the nearby [[Ice Vellumental Mountain]] and defeating its namesake. The duo then completes the trials, gaining an orb from each one and using them to unlock the Sea Tower. After a long climb, the duo confronts the [[Tape]] at the top, whom they defeat. They then proceed to destroy the purple streamer.

[[File:PMTOK Bowser Jr hot spring.png|thumb|200px|Bowser Jr., Kamek, Mario and Olivia rest 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.
Mario and Olivia notice the green streamer and see that it is heading into the clouds. A mysterious light appears on top of the Sea Tower, and stepping into it transports them to [[Shangri-Spa]], where it is revealed that [[Bowser's Castle]] had crash-landed. Here, the duo meets [[Kamek]], who is attempting to take back the castle but cannot due to [[Boss Sumo Bro]] guarding its entrance. The only way to reach him is via [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[Junior Clown Car]], which is shredded along with its owner by a pair of [[Scissors (boss)|Scissors]]. Kamek reluctantly joins the gang and follows them to four of the spa's springs to revive his young ward. Though they ultimately succeed, Jr. ends up completely colorless after soaking for too long in the [[Spring of Jungle Mist]].
 
Mario then accesses the [[Spring of Rainbows]], which he can only reach after sidling along blustery cliffsides and winning a game show, [[Shy Guys Finish Last]]. Bowser Jr. restores his color in the spring and can fly the gang up to Boss Sumo Bro, who is promptly defeated. With the castle unguarded, the gang enter and search it, finding the throne room's entrance locked. Mario and Olivia follow Kamek to his quarters to seek the key. Kamek disappears before he reaches his room, but Mario advances to find Luigi in there instead, having found the very key they are looking for, once again mistaking it for the key to Peach's Castle. Shortly after, Olivia is snatched up by a shadowy hand. Mario travels through the now-empty castle alone, battling [[Big Cutout Soldier|Big]] and [[Li'l Cutout Soldier]]s along the way, before finally confronting his partner's captor, the [[Handaconda]], whom he defeats in a game of Rock Paper Scissors with the 1,000-Fold Arms.


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.
Following this, the duo notices the cut-up remains of Bowser's minions on the floor before the Scissors arrive. Beforehand, though, it sends out the [[Paper Mistake Buzzy Beetle]], who is quickly dispatched, freeing the minions' faces. Mario manages to defeat the Scissors and completely restores its cut-up victims, and Mario and Olivia finally destroy the green streamer.

[[File:PMTOK Origami Castle.jpg|left|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.
Following the restoration of his army, Bowser reveals that he has an idea on how to reach Peach's relocated castle. This idea is shown to be a new [[airship]]. However, they are attacked by the [[Paper Plane Squadron]], and although Mario defeats nearly every plane, the largest jet crashes into and damages Bowser's airship, which plummets into [[Hotfoot Crater]]. Mario, Kamek and Bowser Jr. climb up to reach Bowser, pursued by a horde of Paper Macho Goombas. Kamek and Bowser Jr. are both separated in attempts to hold them back, leaving only Mario and Olivia to reach Bowser, who use the airship's cannon to launch to Peach's 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.
They land outside of the Castle but cannot get inside as the door is locked as Luigi returns, dismayed to report he could not find the key to Peach's Castle. Luckily, the key is found lodged in his kart's tailpipe. Once they enter, they are greeted by origami Peach. King Olly then transforms Peach's Castle into [[Origami Castle]]. The gang manages to corner Olly, who instead retreats and summons the [[Stapler (boss)|Stapler]]. Upon its defeat, Bowser finally manages to unfold himself, and he and Mario work together to lift Olivia's morale after she expresses concern over her brother. With her spirits lifted, the trio finally confronts King Olly.


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.
They attempt to make him come to his senses one final time, simultaneously noticing that Peach has been folded into the rear wall of the throne room. Olly also reveals that the reason behind his consternation is because of a scribble left upon him by the Origami Craftsman, leading to genocidal bigotry against Toads. He reveals that he has folded 999 origami cranes, and intends to use Mario to create the final one, wishing to turn every Toad into blank scraps. Olly refuses to listen to his sister and attacks, using the abilities of all four Vellumentals but is ultimately beaten by Mario and Olivia. Not giving up, he then folds himself into a large sumo wrestler, which Olivia counteracts by giving Bowser a folded sumo form as well. The combined efforts of Bowser and Mario manage to knock King Olly off the arena, only for him to come back even stronger, complete with rising poisonous gas and long arms not dissimilar to Mario's 1,000-Fold Arms. Olivia summons a larger Magic Circle to fight him, transforming Olivia into the Origami Craftsman's giant-hammer design, defeating Olly for good.


[[File:PMTOK Thank You.jpg|thumb|Everyone prepares to release paper lanterns to give thanks to all the origami.]]
In his dying moments, Olly learns that the scrawl on his body was actually a blessing written by the Origami Craftsman. Olly directs Olivia to fold his body into a crane, bringing the total to 1,000 and allowing her to grant any wish she desires. With the help of the Origami Craftsman, she manages to do this, wishing to undo all of the origami her brother folded, including herself. The 1,000 cranes grant her wish and carry Peach's Castle back to Toad Town. Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Bowser Jr., Kamek, the Origami Craftsman, and the restored Princess Peach land outside the castle, and realize that Olivia is absent.
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|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.
Later that night, the Mushroom Kingdom and Bowser's army continue their truce and celebrate the Origami Festival together, where 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, before everyone releases paper lanterns into the starry sky.

Afterwards, the Mario Bros. drive home as the credits roll. Photographs shown during the credits depict the Toads and the Koopa Troop engaged in normal activities following the Origami Festival:
*Sweet Sap Loggins being decorated with flower wreaths by Toads.
*The Earth Vellumental Temple being visited by Koopa Troopas.
*Goombas and Toads feasting at the Overlook Tower café.
*Toads riding through the Eddy River rapids, with [[Cheep Cheep]]s swimming alongside.
*Various characters spending time at Shogun Studios, with a firework launched in Bob-omb's honor.
*The Boot Car salesman and a Snifit riding on respective Boot Cars in the desert.
*DJ Toad and the DJ Snifit dancing with other Toads and a Snifit.
*[[Bob-omb]]s, Toads, and a [[Big Blooper]] enjoying paradise on the Great Sea.
*Bowser, Bowser Jr. and several minions refreshing in the Shangri-Spa hot spring, while repairs of Bowser's Castle are ongoing.
*The static remains of the [[Legion of Stationery]] on the Origami Craftsman's workbench.
 
If the player manages to 100% the game before beating 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 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, 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.

|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 (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|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.

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.

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.

*''[[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.

*''[[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.

===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.
