Every Boss in Paper Mario: The Origami King

There are seven main bosses in Paper Mario: The Origami King that players will need to work their way through in order to beat the main campaign. In typical Nintendo fashion, the bosses are a bit odd, as they’re all office supplies until you reach the final battle, which is against King Olly himself. In the list below, you’ll find all of the Paper Mario: The Origami King bosses.

  • Colored Pencils
  • Rubber Band
  • Hole Punch
  • Tape 
  • Scissors
  • Stapler 
  • King Olly

The battle system in the game is a bit of an odd one, as players will engage in turn-based combat and will use moveable rings to get different power-ups during the fight. Each boss will be a bit different in their attacks, but the combat system is more or less the same in every fight. You’ll have to move the rings around to collect power-ups and get to the boss to deal damage, then they’ll take a swing at you, and so on and so forth. 

Perhaps the most interesting of the Paper Mario: The Origami King bosses is the final boss battle against King Olly in two different forms, a dragon and a turtle. Once they’re defeated, Bowser will fight the King head-on and Mairo will assist while dodging attacks. Of course, there is a bit more to it, but that is the main idea of the fight!

Now that you know about all of the Paper Mario: The Origami King bosses, you should have a good idea of how far along you are in the game. Overall, it should take around 20-30 hours to beat the main campaign, depending on how many collectibles you hunt and side quests you complete!
