Players choose one of eight characters that are different in weight, speed, and acceleration. The characters are Mario Luigi, Bowser, Wario, Princess Peach, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Toad. Races are on a variety of tracks based upon locations in Mario worlds. Each track is a different shape, and may contain obstacles, hazards, and short cuts. Eight characters are in each race. Up to four of them can be human characters, while the rest are computer controlled for one to two player only. Three and four player races have no computer racers.
Paper Mario is designed so that, even though the game features a 3D environment similar to that used in Super Mario 64, the characters are flat two-dimensional sprites like in the 16-bit Mario titles, creating the impression of the characters being made out of paper. Both Mario and Peach are playable.
Another difference from earlier Mario games is the game’s narration. The story is made up of eight chapters and a prologue. The start of a new chapter is announced with a cutscene and a scene with a curtain opening, like that of a theatrical production. When the chapter is finished, another cutscene is shown with the curtain closing. The player takes control of Princess Peach or Mario and attempts to navigate the castle while trying no to be seen by Bowser’s guards.
As in most racing games the objective of each race is to beat the other racers, but also to be able maneuver the jet-ski between buoys. Theres two types of buoys, red bouys , which must be passed on the right side, and yellow buoys, which must be passed on the left side. Each time a buoy is passed on the correct side, a power arrow will light up and the jet ski will speed up. A maximum of five arrows can be lit to get maximum power. Passing a buoy on the wrong side will result in a loss of power, if you miss five buoys over the whole race you will be disqualified. Going out of bounds for more than ten seconds will also result in disqualification.
