    Paper Jam Bros truly is a gem. Lengthy, rewarding, full of surprises, it manages to capture both spirits, the Mario & Luigi and the Paper ones. Don't miss this game.

    All in all, Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam is still a fun RPG that fans of the previous game will enjoy.

    Mario & Luigi Paper Jam is not perfect but definitively is a solid and accessible RPG with all the humor and charming that only Alpha Dream can do with the Super Mario franchise. A solid combat system and a few improvements to the classic formula make this crossover as an enjoyable trip.

    The usual, beautiful Mario & Luigi. The innovations introduced by this chapter are enough to infuse a bit of variety to the adventure. For the rest, it is the usual great mix of action, platform and RPG.

    Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Bros is a nice game that should delight any Nintendo fan. The combat is well balanced but some activities are very boring and you feel that devs had to fill in the gaps.

    Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is just as wacky and enjoyable as any other past iteration of the series, but it fails to change things up in a meaningful way for longtime fans.

    Because creativity comes at the cost of cohesion, the whole adventure turns into one irritating mini-game.

When I played this I couldn't put it down... People are disliking it for only using common mario characters, but for a crossover like this I don't see how they couldn't... There's also toad mini games... I thought some of them were pretty boring, but some were good too! and it's not like it takes up the entire game... Please note that this is a Mario&Luigi game with paper elements rather than a paper mario game.… Expand

I had some fun with it, the papercraft battles are very fun and Paper Mario made the battle system quite good. However, the lack of a good story and generic gameplay makes this game a bit disapointing. It's still a good-to-great game though that I can recommend you… Expand

    Boring, tedious, unfulfilling - unsatisfying... *GARBAGE!!!*
