Publisher Dear Villagers has released a playable demo for its upcoming Paper Mario-inspired RPG Born of Bread, and it's available to download right now on the European eShop (so if you're in another region, get yourself an additional European account).
The game currently doesn't have a release date, so it's actually quite refreshing to be able to play a sample of something that, for now at least, might still be quite a way off. You play as a 'Flour Golem' who must team up with a colourful cast of characters and use his eclectic range of abilities to succeed in combat. Attacks require specific button prompts in order to maximise damage, and of course, knowledge of what your enemies are weak against will also give you a much-needed edge.
Here's some more information from Dear Villagers:

Each buddy will bring their own set of abilities to the party to help, either in combat or during exploration.Weapon types

In addition to weaknesses and resistances, each type of weapon comes with a QTE that makes combat more interactive and fun.
We've tried the demo out for ourselves and it's really quite charming. The writing is on point and the combat system is very reminiscent of Paper Mario. We like it!
