Players must collect, purchase, and create stickers to use in battles to stop Bowser from ruining things.

An Imaginative Paper Mario Adventure with a Sticky Twist

A sticky situation has never been so fun. There's trouble afoot in the town of Decalburg, where the devious Bowser has disrupted the beloved Sticker Fest by causing the Sticker Comet to explode. Now Royal Stickers and pieces of the comet have been flung far and wide, and it's up to Mario and his ally Kersti to set things right by recovering them. This captivating handheld adventure will have new and experienced fans of the Paper Mario series captivated as they navigate colorful 3D environments, defeat enemies, collect oodles of stickers and items, and use them in a variety of fun ways.

Key Game Features

  • Stickers are the key to this imaginative adventure. Battles are turn-based like in the original Paper Mario game, but instead of an attack menu, Mario whomps on his enemies using a sticker to attack. Stickers not only serve as Mario's attacks, but also help solve puzzles throughout the Paper Mario universe when placed in the correct spots. Stickers can be found and collected from all corners of the world, and the flashier the sticker, the more powerful it is.
  • Mario can also spend coins to use the Battle Spinner, which lets him use up to 3 stickers in one turn if the icons are lined up just right. The Battle Spinner can turn the tide in a difficult battle, so collecting coins through the game to use it is crucial.
  • Paper Mario: Sticker Star players get stronger by beating bosses, finding items and completing side missions for other characters in the game instead of accumulating experience points.
  • As players progress through the game, they'll find and use more powerful stickers to boost Mario's attack power. Players can also find HP-Up hearts to further boost Mario's maximum health.
  • The environments in Paper Mario: Sticker Star come to life in this visually-stunning papercraft world on the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. They also contain a wide range of objects such as electric fans, scissors and radiators that can be converted into more stickers, which can then be used to solve puzzles or win battles as Mario maneuvers through each level.

Never mind the negative reviews.
So yes.... this is not quite your father's Paper Mario. But it is a Paper Mario nonetheless. Most of the complaints I saw were just involving the collection and use of stickers. Saying it took away from the classic Mario formula and so on and so forth. But other classics like Mario Galaxy and Mario Kart CERTAINLY was not in the style of classic Mario either. Yet they are widely loved parts of the Mario franchise. I was thrilled to pick this up at a decent price to re-add to my DS/3DS games collection. The seller shipped promptly and the game runs just as good as new. If you have never played this title, I would STRONGLY urge that you get it and see what I am talking about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Game, Returns the Series To It's Roots, But With A Unique and Fun Twist
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2015
Verified Purchase
I absolutely love the Paper Mario series, believing it to be one of Nintendo's best works. Sticker Star returns the series back to its roots...sort of.
The traditional rpg turn based battling is back, but with a twist. Mario must depend on stickers he collects throughout the world's to attack. That means you must collect an abundance of hammers, jump stickers and all sorts of other stickers with different powers and abilities, which really adds a lot of depth to the game and a whole lot of strategy for each battle. Though I never actually ran out of stickers, so you are supplied with enough to not get stuck. You get a sticker book to keep all your stickers in which gets expanded throughout the game. The more powerful stickers take up more room, so you can actually stick the stickers in the best way possible on the pages to fit the most stickers.
You can also use real life items like a fan or scissors that have humorous effects on your paper enemies. Boss fights are really fun as well.
The most notable difference about this game compared to the first two in the series is there is now a world map similar to that in Super Mario Bros 3 & World. You have to beat each level to advance to the next one, but have to constantly revisit stages to solve puzzles and advance the story. Each World has about 6-10 stages and are filled with hidden goals and other secrets to unlock new paths.
The difficulty of the game is just right, though I got stuck a lot. The puzzles in this game are very difficult and clever and I had a hard time figuring them out, resorting to a guide for most of the game.
As far as putting it in a line up with the other games in the series, I would order them...

5.0 out of 5 stars I think this game is great
Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2012
Verified Purchase
I do understand why some people are disappointed with the game because it is hard to compare this game to the other Paper Mario games, but it is important to realize that the older Paper Mario games were console games and this is a 3D handheld console game. I feel there is a good amount of content and gameplay within the game. There are also side challenges available such as the sticker museum and achievement banners. The game is entertaining and amusing. The worlds are engaging and creative. It isn't as much of an RPG as the previous games, but it is still really fun. You collect stickers which can be used in battle to fight enemies; such as a "jump" (boot) sticker which lets you use a jump attack or a "hammer" sticker to use the hammer attack. You also have to find pieces of the levels which were removed so that you can replace them as stickers. There are also "things" to collect which are "real world" items that can be turned into stickers and used to unlock parts of levels, to fight bosses, or to add to the museum.

I personally enjoy this game and feel that it is an excellent addition to the Mario franchise. I think this game will be enjoyable my most age groups.

This game is incredible fun and if you are a newcomer i highly recommend it!
The game isn't on par with The original Paper Mario or Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door but its a step up from super Paper Mario.

Things I Liked:
New Sticker Fighting System makes the game feel fresh
Decently Long game takes around 20 hours to beat
3D is cleverly used/ nicely done
The Humor

Things I Disliked:
Lack of Story
No companions
some RPG elements removed such as leveling up stats

They removed some things that many people including myself loved about this series such as companions and leveling up! But that doesn't make this a bad game its more of a simplified version of what paper mario used to be (which isnt a bad thing) the game is still a huge blast and its fun collecting different stickers and learning how to beat certain bosses and finding secrets.

Overall if you are a hardcore Paper Mario fan you might be a bit disappointed but if you want a fun adventure game with a simple turn based fighting then this game is for you!

Hubby played through the game and didn't really like it, which is crazy because he usually loves mario games.

Other than the playthrough and storyline not being not optimal (these are his words since I asked him for his honest opinion), it's functional and was a good buy!

I am a fan of Mario games, but this one is one of my favorites. I usually get bored and do not play them all the way through, but this one kept me entertained! I enjoyed the story, I enjoyed the gameplay. The game was easy enough to learn but not too easy to be boring.
I would recommend this for anyone that has a 3DS and enjoys this style of game!

This game also has stickers in it that you collect to use, which is a fun concept, because I enjoy gathering items in games and being able to use them for an advantage. You guys did an awesome job on this one! Bravo :).

Not as good as previous games in the Paper Mario Series but still fun.
I love the combat system in Sticker Star though the down side is apparent if you don't have the right stickers or enough stickers for certain bosses. The animations for thing stickers are pretty neat.
I think the game has great replay value if you love to collect stickers for the museum.
