    There is so many reasons this game sucks. This game is boring, bland, and uneventful. The story is almost non-existent and all the NPC are toad's boring Toad's. I don't hate this game because it's not "Paper Mario" I hate it because the story sucks the characters suck and the game is boring! 0/10 do not ever buy this its a waste of money!

    This is the game that ruined the franchise, no more RPG elements, no more partners, no more original characters, unnecessary battles and a tedious battle system. Thanks to this game Color Splash and The origami King are not great games. Sticker star is a catastrophe thanks to Tanabe and Miyamoto's outdated ideas

    I would rather chew on glass than play this horrible waste of time and money again, Paper Mario: Sticker Star is so horrid is not worth being called a video game

    Terrible combat, terrible story, no real characters. For your own sake, avoid at all costs.

    This game is by far the worst Paper Mario game and is the worst 3DS game. in fact, let me list off all of the problems. It has no story, no memorable characters or locations, a frustrating battle system, poor navigation, etc, etc, etc. but seriously, don't buy this, it's a waste of time and money.

    Sadly, you can see creative restrictions around every corner. This game marks the downfall of the Paper Mario series!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the worst Paper Mario game by far and maybe one of the worst games Nintendo has ever released. Who thought it was good game design to need a certain sticker to beat certain enemies? I just wonder what happened between the beta showcase and the final release date, because this was a huge disappointment. Super Paper Mario, while it does have its own fair share of flaws, still feels like a Paper Mario game, Sticker Star, on the other hand, doesn't even feel like it was made by Nintendo. I wish I could wipe this game from my memory, because I had a miserable time with it, and would steer clear of ever playing it again. Expand

    - de "puzzels" zijn zo abstract dat ik nergens geraak.

    - de combat is pointless

    - de bazen hebben "dingen" nodig om verslaan te worden die in andere levels/ werelden zijn

    conclusie:
    als je het concept van deze game toch leuk vindt dan kun je beter Color Splash spelen

    Brilliant humor and an interesting world won't save Mario's latest RPG offering. Even though the stickers add a lot of variety to the turn based battles, an RPG without any character development tends to turn repetitive eventually. Unfortunately for Mario such is the case with Sticker Star. [Feb 2013]

    A great reinterpretation of what makes Mario work. [March 2013, p.72]

    Unfortunately for it, Paper Mario: Sticker Star has to deal with being a “pretty good” entry in a series that is usually considered amongst the best games on their respective consoles. While I did have fun with it, there were times when I felt like I was just going through the motions, and very little of the innovation or character of previous entries shone through.
