Paper Mario: Color Splash is an upcoming action-adventure RPG in the Paper Mario series for Wii U. It will be the fifth installment of the series.
Gameplay
Paper Mario: Color Splash is an RPG game that appears to be inspired by Paper Mario: Sticker Star. It is based on Mario using the Paint Hammer[1] to paint colorless elements, characters and parts of the environment in order to progress in the game[1]. These colorless elements and characters appear to be connected to Shy Guys with a straw called Slurp Guys[2][3]. Furthermore, Bowser is involved as well, since Bowser's adhesive tape from the same game is returning[3]. Super Flags are returning as well, this time found in the main square of the town where Mario arrives[1]. The battles will be based on cards that have to be painted in order to be used[3]. Both the use of the Paint Hammer and the painting of cards will require colors, whose levels are indicated by bars and whose maximum amount can be increased (maximum amounts observed so far are 100, 150 and 180)[3]. Things will return in battle again, this time in cards[1], which appear to not deplete Mario's paint. The hammer attacks will now have a charging sign indicating at which point an "Excellent" attack can be obtained and it is confirmed that only coins will be obtained when winning a battle[2].

Reception
Pre-release
Upon its reveal, Paper Mario: Color Splash received mostly negative reception from fans of the series, who were critical of the game for seemingly continuing the gameplay style used in Sticker Star, which had a lessened focus on RPG elements, story, and featured no original characters,[5] instead of returning to the gameplay style of the first Paper Mario game and The Thousand-Year Door.[6] Following the game's announcement, a petition on Change.org was created calling for the game's cancellation, similar to what happened with Metroid Prime: Federation Force.[7]
