One of the best games I have ever played with little to no flaws.
The graphics were great they had some improvements to the last Paper Mario but keeping the same style of looks to the old one which is great since the last Paper Mario was a great game. When your playing theirs also some added features to the scenario that Mario has to find in order to find paths or secrets(such as using Flurrie). The music, sound effects, and "special effects" are great as well theirs is a new level of graphics when it comes to this game and compared to the first Paper Mario.
The story/plot behind the game is good it's your average get the stars and save Peach story. In my opinion I don't mind it's still a great game with exceptional maps and plots. Some plots are kind of weird but they are fun to play! This game has some similar chapters to that of the last Paper Mario such as the Petalburg(Koopa Fortress), Keyhaul(Yoshi's Island), and a couple of others but then again the maps have some significant changes and only the environment is the same not the map itself. Mario has also gained some great abilities that help you pass the game and make the game more fun. The plot is of an average length it takes a moderate time to pass it, as a kid it should take a good amount of time and it will be very enjoyable. To the game they have added many new things such as the pit of 100 trials and hidden bosses and many more things that you can do to enjoy the game for much longer. You will not be disappointed by the new things they have added.
Theirs also a lot more new characters that were added to the game and you will see a few of the main characters from Paper Mario. Your new partners also have some great new abilities to help you on battle and on the map. Some of the new partners Mario has are similar to the ones he has in the first Paper Mario but he also has new completely different friends that will help him in his long journey to save Peach.
Their is also a large amount of new items, areas, abilities, badges, a new journal, enemies, missions, and many more things that you can enjoy in this game. This game is a must buy in my opinion it is a great game that I recommend you should get if you really enjoy Mario RPG's. The last Paper Mario was great and this one is superb. This is I can tell you is my favorite game, I highly recommend you get this and if your some game maniac and it takes you only a couple of days to pass, theirs many things that you can do and discover to enjoy this game. You might end up playing this game for more than 300 hours(thats when i lost track) like me. So I repeat this makes an exceptional Mario RPG and you will not be disappointed if you buy this.
