Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team (known as Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. in Europe and Australia) is a role-playing game developed by AlphaDream and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS in 2013. It is the successor to Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and was followed by Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. It is also the second-to-last game to not be a remake.

Why It's Dreamy

 * 1) The concept of an RPG game taking place in both the real world and the dream world is an interesting concept. It's kinda like what mh:crappygames:Sonic Shuffle tried to do, but Dream Team actually pulls it off in a more fun and creative way.
 * 2) Amazing soundtrack as usual, like the battle track "Try Try Again", the victory theme "Joyous Occasion", "Lofty Mount Pajamaja" and the boss song "Never Let Up!". It's so good that you'll more likely want to hear it on YouTube.
 * 3) Outstanding, colorful and pretty graphics and animation that makes the game feel like a Disney cartoon. You can tell that Nintendo and AlphaDream knew that too, since the same sprites are used in Paper Jam and in the Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story remakes for the 3DS.
 * 4) Luiginary Works, found in the Dream World, are pretty intuitive: they utilize the Touch Screen on the bottom half of the 3DS showing an asleep Luigi, and whatever Starlow does to him (like pulling his mustache or touching his nose) makes them function according to the corresponding action.
 * 5) Dreamy Luigi, Luigi's dreamy counterpart, functions as well as his real world self. Regardless of how much health he has, he boosts Mario's HP by 50% and his BP by 20% in battles.
 * 6) While it doesn't have as many bosses as its predecessor, they are still a blast to fight. A few examples are Antasma, Wiggly Wiggler and Dreamy Mario.
 * 7) This could be considered the Luigi's Mansion of the Mario & Luigi series due to the green bro having a major role in it, since he is the main mean of transportation for him and Mario to the Dream World.
 * 8) It has tons of replay value. For example, you can send Luigi to the Dream World again even after the game's beaten.
 * 9) The Bros. Attacks are so awesome that many of these were carried over to Paper Jam without any known hesitation, like 3D Red Shell and Bomb Derby.
 * 10) The worlds are unforgettable and very nicely designed once again, all thanks to AlphaDream's impeccable work.
 * 11) It keeps a good amount of continuity with the rest of the series by showing Beanish people walking around Pi'llo Island and bringing back Kylie Koopa from Partners in Time and Popple from Superstar Saga for example.
 * 12) This is the first Mario & Luigi game to have Bowser as a major villain, and quite an effective one at that.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) You can't skip in-game tutorials, no matter how many times you play and/or beat the game.
 * 2) Dreamy Bowser can be a bit creepy for younger players depending on your view.
 * 3) The Fire Flower is hard to use, as you need quick reflexes to wait for the fireball to charge. Fortunately this was nerfed in Paper Jam, where you can throw unlimited fireballs without having to wait.
 * 4) While the bosses are fun, some of them are extremely hard to beat.
 * 5) Bowser Jr. X stealing a Bros. Attack if you perform it is as (if not more) annoying as Popple stealing an item from your inventory or your hammer in his third Superstar Saga boss fight.
 * 6) The game is way too long spanning around 40-50 hours. While this may not be necessarily bad, it can still get really boring.
