“How's that? Mind blown? Yeah. Time's stopped, and the world's become as flat as a piece of paper. That's what I call "paperization"!”

—Kersti,Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Paperize (known aspaperise in Europe and Australia and also calledpaperization orpaperisation) is one ofKersti's abilities inPaper Mario: Sticker Star. It allowsMario to turn the surrounding environment into a sheet of paper that he can then stick hisstickers onto for various effects when the world returns to normal. Further, he can tear certain objects out of the world and turn them intoscraps, leaving behind a purple void that cannot be interacted with in any way. Lastly, he can paste scraps into these voids on the paper to restore the object to the world. Paperization is used extensively in the game to solve puzzles. Kersti is well versed in its capabilities, and if she is asked for advice in many instances that require paperization to proceed she will tell Mario to consider using it. Kersti grants this ability to the player inWarm Fuzzy Plains in order to counteractBowser Jr.'s use of it, and then the player can use it at any point. Paperization can only be performed in the field, and cannot be performed if Kersti is separated from Mario.

An area ofShy Guy Jungle is paperized.Mario is smoothing aSecret Door he stuck into into a paperization zone. When paperization ends, the door will appear on the wall behind the paperization zone, and it can be entered to access a secret area.

To paperize, the player has to press the button. Mario spins around while Kersti stops time and projects a blue afterimage of a crown. The screen zooms out slightly. Then Kersti lifts Mario up and outside the course. The screen zooms back in, and while doing so the entire on-screen area is converted into a sheet of paper, which falls backward and lands face up in a multicolored space. Mario and Kersti float over the picture, and Mario can choose an item from hisalbum to paste onto the scene. By default, the game locks the player into picking a sticker, flipping the album to the "Stickers" section and preventing them from selecting another section. After making a selection, the player can move Mario and Kersti around the picture with the to pick where to stick the item, or put the item back in the album with the to make another choice. The shadow of the held item is projected onto the picture to make aligning the item with the location easier. Pressing has Mario and Kersti drop down tostick the item onto the paper. Mario's trajectory is autocorrected if he is just off from a valid location as well as if he would not land in the center of a valid location. If the location picked is a valid location for the item, the player must then move the to the left and right, moving Mario across the sticker or scrap so that he cansmooth out the item's left and right edge. Mario moves slower when he is in the process of smoothing out the edge, and a burst of star effects appears when an edge fully flattened. While smoothing, Mario cannot move past the edges of the item. When both edges are flat, the item is fully applied and thus permanently removed from the album. The button can be used during the smoothing process to cancel and return to selecting an item.

If the player tries to put a sticker or a scrap is not in a valid location, their attempt to stick the item to the paper is cancelled. Mario and Kersti return to their higher elevation, and the item is returned to the album. If there are no valid locations on the sheet of paper to place anything, paperization ends immediately at this point. Similarly, if the player cancels sticking when there no valid locations, paperization ends. If there are valid locations in either scenario, the player is instead prompted on if they want to continue sticking or not. Paperization ends if the player picks "No" but continues from selecting an item if the player selects "Yes". If an item is placed in a valid location, and there are other valid locations on the sheet of paper, the player is also prompted on if they want to continue sticking or not. Lastly, if the item is placed in a valid location, and there are no other valid locations on the sheet of paper, paperization ends. The player can choose to end paperization at any time by pressing when selecting a sticker or scrap from the album. When paperizaiton ends, Kersti lifts Mario away and the course returns to normal. Mario and Kersti land precisely where they were before they started paperization, and time resumes. If items were placed during paperization, they take effect starting at this point. If something useful will happen as a result of paperization a burst of stars appears from areas being affected, accompanied by yellow and blue energy effects, blue ring effects, and a jingle.

Areas that can be affected by placing stickers arepaperization zones: faint boxes with a red or blue dotted outline. Such areas can only be seen while using paperization. If a paperization zone is mostly but not completely on screen when paperization is used, the screen may scroll slightly to get the box completely in frame. Paperization zones are not shown if the zone is obscured by other terrain, and cannot be used in such circumstances.

• Boxes of varying size with blue outlines that are normal. Paperizing stickers into them has a effect dependent on which course or neutral area the box is in and its location within the course or nuetral area. Stickers that are too large cannot be put into these paperization zones at all, with Mario failing to stick them in. Some of these allow the player to put any kind of sticker in them, but others will only accept the correct kind of sticker. If an incorrect sticker is placed, then instead of a useful effect happening upon time resuming, the sticker turns gray and peels off of the location. The sticker fades away, and thus is irretrievable.
• Large boxes with blue outlines that are odd. The first time the player paperizes in an location with this kind of paperization zone, Kersti notes that she has never seen paperization zones like these prior toPaper Mario: Sticker Star. These paperization zones are exclusively for thing stickers, and paperizing stickers into them will cause the thing do something dependent on which course or neutral area the zone is in and its location within the course or neutral area. If an incorrect sticker is placed, then the same lack of effect happens as with a normal small paperization zone with blue outlines.
• Small boxes with red outlines that are normal. Paperizing stickers into them always transforms the paperization zone into a fully visible? Block. Stickers that are too large cannot be put into these paperization zones at all, with Mario failing to stick them in. When the ? Block is hit, it dispenses an item based on what sticker was put into the paperization zone. It could be a stronger version of the original sticker, a completely different sticker, multiple stickers that may be either of the two prior results,coins, orhearts. Unlike the other two kinds of paperization zones, any kind of sticker of the right size can be placed in these to have an effect. Pink flowers and Tree stumps with a red ring often indicate a paperization zone with red outlines is directly above them, although this is not a strict rule. ? Blocks created this way revert to being paperization zones when the player leaves the course.

TheSticker Museum is a building where Mario is tasked with collecting every battle sticker and thing sticker in the game to put on display. Each of the incomplete exhibit has a special paperization zone of the normal box with blue outlines kind that only accepts the exact sticker that that exhibit is meant to display. Each frame has an afterimage of the sticker that the papeization zone needs. All of the paperization zones work in the exact same way: they complete the exhibit by adding the sticker, and in doing so a plaque appears below the frame where the player can read the sticker's entry on Sticky Wiki. When paperization is performed in the Sticker Museum, the screen zooms in before Mario performs the spin and returns to its normal field of view when paperization concludes.

Areas where something has been removed from the course are swirling purple voids, which have a distinctive sound effect even outside of paperization. AToad who gets trapped inside one such space describes it as a "netherworld".^[1] Hitting these spaces with Mario'sjump orhammer makes dust appear instead of the object's normal effect. The voids also cannot be checked, used, or stood on like the real object. If Mario paperizes around these spaces, the game locks the player into picking a scrap, flipping the album to the "Scraps" section and preventing them from selecting another section. If a void is not completely on screen when paperize is used, the screen may scroll significantly to get the void completely in frame. Scraps can only be stuck to voids that perfectly match their shape, and are returned to the album otherwise. The effect of paperizing to stick scraps almost always has the same effect of restoring the object in the course, save for one exception.

Certain objects that appear to be completely normal can be removed from the course through paperization. These act very similarly to the voids, and likewise lock the album into the "Scraps" section. When an object that can be removed from a course is in an area during paperization, its upper right corner will peel outward and reveal a void behind it. The game does not have the player pick a scrap from the album. Instead, it skips to movement. Mario has to be moved over to the peeling object with the, then drop topull the object off the sheet of paper with the. This collects the object as a scrap and leaves a swirling purple void behind, but lacks the energy and ring effects of sticking scraps onto the paper. Mario and Kersti cannot be lowered toward any object that is not peeling, with the button being ignored if they are not over the peeling object. As all areas with this kind of object only have one of this kind of object in them, paperization ends immediately after removing such an object.

There is one puzzle in the game which is simply to remove an object by the aforementionmed method, the fountain inDecalburg to be precise, but most puzzles require the player to do something more useful than create an inert void. At first, it is possible for the scrap Mario gains to automatically rotate or flip over after being put in the album. All such objects are symmetrical such that the rotated or flipped scrap perfectly matches the void that removing the object created. As such, the object can be returned to the course through paperization, where its new orientation is more useful than its original orientation. These kinds of obstacles are often telegraphed by their initial orientation being outright incorrect. For example, a section of a wall that can be removed then automatically rotate will have its pattern not match the pattern of the surrounding wall. If there is a door on that wall, it might be aligned with the side of the building rather than the bottom, which is clearly "off" since the player can only enter doors at ground level. Other times, Mario can tear out an object from another area whose scrap has the same shape as the void created by removing the object from the first area. This enables Mario to swap the locations of both objects by putting the scraps into the void that does not correspond with the objects' original locations, and the new locations of the objects are invariably more useful than the original locations. Scraps that must be placed into a different area to progress are unable to be put back into their original location, and when a scrap is placed where it belongs, the object is unable to be peeled off again.

Luigi is hiding in five courses of the game, specifically in one course of each world fromWorld 1 toWorld 5. He is facing away from the screen, and paperization can be used to retrieve him. Luigi is similar to removable objects in the game except that when he is present and the player paperizes, the album is locked to the "Stickers" section. Luigi does not peel upward when he is on the sheet of paper, instead turning to face the screen. Once peeled off the paper, he does not leave a void behind and he does not go into the album as a scrap. Instead, he runs to the side and jumps off the paper, falling off the screen. Each time the player finds and peels away Luigi, an article of anewspaper appears in a house in Decalburg, with the article corresponding the course the player did this in. It describes Luigi being sighted in the course, but no one knows who Luigi is so the articles instead refer to him as a "mysterious green guy". If Luigi is found in all five of the courses, he leads theparade at theSticker Fest at the end of the game.

Kamek andBowser Jr. are capable of paperizing as well, and use this power to inconvenience Mario by removing objects that he needs to utilize to proceed. For instance, they can take aWooden Bridge Mario needs to use to cross a river, or take theComet Piece Mario needs to complete a course. These characters hide the resulting scrap elsewhere, rather than giving it to Mario after a battle. Oddly, when they start paperize, an afterimage of a blue crown also appears. When they stop paperizing, black and purple energy effects and black ring effects appear. A negative jingle plays as well, mirroring the light and positve sounds of Kersti's version.

TheToads are implied to not understand paperization, given that the captain of a boat atSurfshine Harbor does not understand that their boat stopped working because the steering wheel was torn from the world, and a Toad in Decalburg freaks out after Mario tears the town's fountain out of the world because to them the fountain vanished. However, theSticker Museum curator does understand how paperization works given that Mario has to paperize to fill each exhibit. He also assumes Mario knows how to stick the stickers in, and Mario's only means of sticking stickers anywhere is paperization.^[2]

There are 155 spots where paperization can be used to an effect.Shaved Ice Cave andBowser's Sky Castle are the only courses that lack both paperization zones and swirling purple voids.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star[edit]

• Website description:
  • English (United States):
    The world is riddled with gaping holes and secret spaces that need to be fixed with a well-placed sticker. In order to make this happen, sometimes you’ll need to stop time and turn the whole world into a flat sheet of paper—this is called 'Paperizing'. It allows you to patch-up these problems with a well-placed sticker and continue on your adventure.
