2 appear, such as Shy Guys, Ninjis, and, making their Paper Mario series debut, Snifits.

The diversity of friendly characters and enemies has also been reduced, with most characters being standard Toads.

The game also scales back unique locations, instead using the general themes of locations seen in previous Mario games. Along with the change in the art style, returning elements such as Goombas and Hammer Brothers have their designs changed to better resemble contemporary depictions. Game mechanics like status effects complement the paper aesthetic. The world's environments also resemble craft materials like cardboard and appear similar to dioramas. Many characters actively refer to themselves as existing within a paper world, most notably Kersti. The visual presentation places a greater emphasis on the 'paper' aspect than the previous games. Flower Points, Star Points, badges, permanent upgrades to Mario's boots and hammer, and party member abilities are removed in favor for single-use items in the form of stickers. However, the game is segmented into levels and worlds rather than chapters and the game completely overhauls the battle system. Mario traverses through an overworld and battles enemies through turn-based combat. The game returns to the general gameplay style of the first two Paper Mario games. Along the way, Mario and his partner Kersti must collect the Comet Pieces, fragments of the Sticker Comet, and all six Royal Stickers spread across six worlds. This game follows Mario on his adventure to defeat Bowser and rescue Princess Peach after Bowser accidentally breaks the Sticker Comet and comes under the influence of the strongest Royal Sticker. It succeeded Super Paper Mario from 2007, and was itself succeeded by Paper Mario: Color Splash and Paper Mario: The Origami King in 20 respectively. Paper Mario: Sticker Star is an action-adventure, role-playing game developed by Intelligent Systems and released for the Nintendo 3DS as the fourth installment in the Paper Mario series, as well as the first installment released for a handheld console.
