Brothership adds more RPG depth to the series, but its flat writing and overabundance of gimmicks drag it down.

I used to play Mario & Luigi RPGs on the Nintendo DS a long time ago ... I found Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom to be more my style, but Brothership is another really good RPG in a lineup of impressively deep Nintendo RPGs already on the Switch.

If you haven't already seen our review of Mario & Luigi: Brothership here on Nintendo Life, our reviewer PJ O'Reilly gave the game an "excellent" 9 out of 10 stars - mentioning how this latest entry takes the long-running series to "new heights".
