Paper Mario: The Origami King is the sixth installment in the 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.[1][2]
Plot
This section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
The game begins with Mario and Luigi driving into Toad Town on the latter's kart, looking forward to the Origami Festival that Princess Peach has invited them to. Upon arrival, the brothers notice that the town is deserted, but continue on anyway, assuming that they arrived early. Luigi pulls up at the suspiciously empty Peach's Castle, and once he and Mario are inside, the doors 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 asks Mario if he wants to see the kingdom fold, and if he will fold himself as well, but regardless of his answers, she dismisses him by dropping him into a hidden dungeon beneath the floor. There, Mario hears a noise, and by landing on a Magic Circle, he initiates the 1,000-Fold Arms for the first time, using them to peel the wall to reveal a trapped Olivia. Afterward, the duo go to a dungeon area and free a folded Bowser attached to a clothespin.[3][4]
Escaping the dungeon to the upper outskirts of Peach's Castle, Mario, after refusing to accept a Yellow Shy Guy's request to fold again, is ambushed by a group of Origami Goombas. After defeating them, the Yellow Shy Guy next to Origami Peach reveals himself as Olivia's older brother, King Olly. He initiates the takeover of Peach's Castle by pulling the five streamers elsewhere in Mushroom Kingdom, wrapping the castle enough to have it separated from the ground. Mario, Olivia, and Bowser successfully escape via Koopa Clown Car, piloted by a Red Shy Guy. In addition to noticing Luigi's hat falling from the castle, the three on the car make a desperate attempt to reach the floating castle, but are approached by streamers. The red one inadvertently hits the car, sending the three flying out in the sky, as the Red Shy Guy rescues Bowser and heads off elsewhere. With the castle now in the mountains, Mario and Olivia, who wake up on a forest hill far from Toad Town, both set out to destroy the five streamers, find Luigi, and defeat Olly.[4]
Gameplay
The overworld exploration is quite different from the series' standard; whereas the previous three games were either sorted into individual chapters or levels, 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.[5] 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. Mario has permanent Boots and Hammer attacks, and may equip stronger variants that break after a while.[6] Attacking enemies on the overworld will grant Mario an extra attack in battle, and timed button presses can increase damage when attacking. Lining up the enemies successfully will increase Mario's attack power by a factor of 1.5.[7] Coins can be spent to extend the time limit (at a rate of 10 coins per second),[4] or call the Toads 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.[8] In a similar vein to the two previous installments, this game has no experience points or level up mechanics, and coins are the only reward.
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 Vellumental is defeated, Olivia can transform into the Vellumental while standing on Magic Circles, an ability that carries over into battle.[7] Additionally, partners return to ally with Mario and aid him in battles, including Bob-omb and Kamek.[1] Various partners join and leave Mario's party at various points in the story.[5]
Accessories (which seem to function similarly to Badges from the first two games) grant Mario benefits both in battle and on the overworld.[6] 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.[6] Mario can gain confetti by using his Hammer on trees, grass, and enemies. This confetti can be used to fill Not-Bottomless Holes torn in the landscape, revealing Coins or a Toad.[6]

Nintendo eShop description
The kingdom has been ravaged by an origami menace! Join Mario and his new partner, Olivia, as they battle evil Folded Soldiers, repair the damaged landscape, and try to free Princess Peach's castle from the clutches of King Olly in this comedy-filled adventure, only on the Nintendo Switch system.
Mario and Luigi receive an invitation from Princess Peach to attend an origami festival and excitedly hurry to Toad Town...but something's amiss. After investigating the eerily empty town, the duo finds a fearsome (and folded) Princess Peach-she's been turned into origami by King Olly, ruler of the Origami Kingdom! With five giant streamers under his control, King Olly binds Princess Peach's Castle and transports it to a distant mountain as part of his plan to re-fold the world.
On his journey to liberate Peach's Castle and repair the ravaged paper landscape, Mario meets Olivia, King Olly's sister, and the two join forces to put a stop to Olly's origami onslaught. Even Bowser falls victim to Olly's plot when his minions are turned into origami Folded Soldiers and betray their Koopa king, forcing him to ally with Mario and Olivia!
Battle the Folded Soldiers in ring-based battles the challenge you to strategically line up enemies to maximize damage! Out of battle, Mario can use the arm-extending 1,000-Fold Arms ability in specific spots to interact with the landscape to pull, peel, hit, and more! Join Mario, Olivia, and their companions on a journey of laughter and emotion, thrills, and a whole lot of folding.
References to other games
- Super Mario Bros.: When Mario grabs the top of the Goal Pole and slides down it for the first time at Picnic Road, a 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 Pencil's drawings is of Mario's death sprite from this game.
- Metroid series: Mario can obtain a Space Warrior Mask in the staff room at Shogun Studios, which is a papier-mâché version of Samus's helmet. When Mario tries it on, a variation of the fanfare for when Samus appears in Metroid plays, and Bob-omb tells Olivia it does not suit Mario's style and remarks, "It'd probably look perfect on some other kind of M, though."[34] Its description reads, "An otherworldly mask. Sadly, it won't allow you to roll into a ball," a reference to the Morph Ball ability.
- 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.[8]
- 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.
- Super Mario Bros. 3: Olivia mentions the sun being angry in Scorching Sandpaper Desert.[35]
- Super Mario World: The fireball and spin jump sounds are reused from this game.[8]
- Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars: When Mario walks across the bridge in the Toad campsite of Whispering Woods, the logs make sounds "Do, Ti, La, So, Fa, Mi, Re, Ti", the same notes used in Melody Bay in this game.
- Paper Mario: The castle's interior looks similar to the one used in this game, and Peach's design from this game appears as a photo.[1][10]
- The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: The Great Sea and its mechanics are a reference to this game. The player needs to collect three pearls in order to open Sea Tower, similar to how they need to collect the Goddess Pearls to reach Tower of the Gods, the colors of the pearls are also the same as them. When the player goes to Diamond Island to get the three pearls, the game refers the trial as "the trial of power, courage and wisdom", which is a reference to the Triforce and the Golden Goddesses.
- Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door: Peach's design from this game appears as a photo.[10]
- Super Paper Mario: Peach appears in a photo with her parasol and a background resembling Lineland.[10]
- Mario Kart Wii: An arrangement of 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.
- Paper Mario: Sticker Star: When the player completes Bonehead Island, a fan that has the same appearance as the Fan Thing from this game emerges from the sea and blows the mist away, similar to the Fan's animation in battle. Shiny and flashy attacks return from this game. In addition, Peach appears in a photo, surrounded by stickers.[10]
- Super Mario 3D World: Some of the voice clips are recycled from this game.
- Mario Kart 8: Like in Paper Mario: Color Splash, Luigi drives a Standard Kart resembling the ones in this game.[10]
- Paper Mario: Color Splash: The Origami King runs on a very similar graphical engine to Color Splash. Princess Peach's design from that game also appears as a photo in the game. The Rescue Squads return in the Battle Lab. The Emerald Circus and the Lost Sea captain's pirate ship appear in paintings in Outlook 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. A Slurp Guy appears in the Tranquil Pipes Teahouse and gives Mario his straw. The hidden rainbow-colored spa in Shangri-Spa 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.
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: A Toad that is trying to climb a cliff in the Autumn Mountain references the climbing mechanic where it is harder to climb when it is raining by saying, "But hey, at least it isn't raining."
Similarities to other Paper Mario games
- Like the original game and its sequel, Mario and Luigi receive an invitation from Princess Peach.[10]
- 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.[36]
- Partners return from the first three games.[1]
- Just like in the second and third games, Bowser is not the primary villain. Rather, Mario and Bowser team up[1], 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.[1]
- Like the previous five games, there is a part that plays like a game show.
- NPCs based on enemy species return from the first two games.
- 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.[37]
- Like the first game, Peach's Castle gets taken over by the main antagonist.
- Like in the first four games, Mario fights a Blooper as a boss.[38]
- 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 in order 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, 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.
- Princess Peach is depicted in artwork without her lipstick, much like in the first two games.
Differences from other Paper Mario games
- This is the first game in the series in which Bowser is not fought in any way, shape, or form.
- It is also the first Mario role-playing game overall in which Bowser is not fought.
- 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 Hearts), rather to destroy giant streamers blocking Peach's Castle.
- Save prompts now have a distinctive look, separate from normal textboxes.
- When getting a Game Over, an option to restart from the last save (or in the case for minigames and the final boss, to try again) is now available.
- There are no Experience Points of any form.
Reception
Critical response
Paper Mario: The Origami King received positive reviews from critics, who praised the expansive overworld, graphics, writing, and plot, but criticized the battling system for being repetitive, frustrating, and unrewarding.

Nintendo Switch | Michael Goroff, EGM |
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? |
Nintendo Switch | Cam Shea, IGN |
7/10 | 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. |
Nintendo Switch | Chris Carter, Destructoid |
8/10 | 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. |
Nintendo Switch | Suriel Vazquez, GameSpot |
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. |
Nintendo Switch | Alex Donaldson, VG247 |
4/5 | 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. |
