Norwich, UK - 21 May 2024. Newfangled Games has announced the launch of paper-folding puzzle adventure game Paper Trail today on PC, consoles, and the Netflix mobile app. Enter a charming world crafted entirely from paper, where each fold will help players explore, progress, and meet new characters.
Players will follow the story of aspiring academic Paige as she travels across top-down paper levels, solving puzzles and overcoming obstacles by folding the very world around them. As players progress, new gameplay opportunities will emerge, allowing them to drag objects, shine lights, and push boulders across newly created paper paths. There’s a cast of colourful characters to meet along the way with their own interesting stories to tell, and beautiful environments to take in.
“We’re thrilled to finally be releasing Paper Trail today,” said Henry Hoffman, Founder at Newfangled Games. “It’s been a real labour of love for our studio since its inception, and we can’t wait for players to fold their way through the world we’ve created and discover Paige’s story.”
