Step into a vibrant, papercraft world with Paper Mario Color Splash on Wii U. This is more than a traditional RPG—it's a fresh, color-powered adventure where painting the world directly changes how you solve puzzles, navigate environments, and engage in battles.

With the Wii U GamePad as your personal paintbrush, you’ll draw real color onto the landscape to reveal hidden routes, activate switches, and transform ordinary objects into working bridges and doors. The painting mechanic isn’t just cosmetic; it’s the key to progression, exploration, and uncovering the next colorful surprise.

Color-driven gameplay that reshapes every encounter

In combat and exploration, color determines the rules. You apply color to enemies and scenery to unlock new attack options, reveal weaknesses, and trigger powerful Color Power moves. The turn-based battles are enhanced by a tactile, strategic layer: choose the right hue, time your actions, and let color influence the outcome. It’s not about rote pressing—it’s about thinking in color to outsmart every foe.
