Paper Mario: The Origami King offers new ring-based battles, requiring the player to strategy and quick thinking to align enemies and execute timely attacks to maximize damage. It will take a sharp mind to determine when to beat enemies in Mario's boots, when to hit them with a hammer, and when to strategically use items to heal or attack.
An audience of cheering toads is ready to present a variety of useful aids in battle, in case Mario starts to feel pressured. Mario will also face some of his archenemies in battles against the Legion of Stationery, the themed bosses around the stationery like colored pencils, duct tape and rubber bands. These enemies may seem innocent, but take note - they can be very fearsome, so be especially careful!
When Mario fails to challenge him in the ring, he can investigate suspicious spots to uncover hidden objects, throw confetti to mend holes in the landscape, discover lots of toads hiding in the scenery, play mini-games to earn in-game rewards, and " party ”with the multitude of secrets and treasures scattered throughout the game world.
