 Paper Mario appeals to all ages. 29 of 30 people found this review helpful.
Paper Mario appeals to all ages with its charm and puzzle solving. There is a fine mix of both puzzle solving, charming characters and events, and witty dialogue. Please be aware that Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is an RPG (Role Playing Game) and not a standard 2D platformer like the original Mario Bros. games. You play as Mario and must solve some hard problems in the game using Mario's paper abilities. I recommend this game for chilren to adult ages 6+, as there is quite a bit of written dialogue that must be read. Younger children may be stumped at some of the puzzles in the game and may need some help. Thankfully, the game is fun for all ages - which could turn adult intervention or help into "whoops, I just beat the game for you." This game is full of charming characters and witty dialogue. The game is also rather long (~40 hours) with constantly changing worlds, enemies, and scenery. Loading times are short and completely unnoticeable. If you have a Gamecube, you owe it to yourself to get Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door!

Paper mario and the thousand year door is a great game to play by yourself or with your kids. The gameplay is very different which makes the game very fun in its own sort of way.Like previous Mario games the, this game is filled with adventure, puzzles, secrets, and some good laughs sometimes! Gameplay in the very beginning takes awhile to get accustomed too, but play it for a couple of hours and you'll find yourself addicted! There is no violence, no gratuitous scenes, which makes it perfect for a child! The price for this game had come down to 19.99 in most stores brand new, which means it would be a great gift to someone. I have always liked the Mario games on account its not the typical shoot the enemy, same scenery, game. New lands are revealed in this, as well as old enemies once again trying to foil Mario in his adventures. I guarentee, if you like Nintendo games, then this game is for you.
