Newfangled Games has confirmed a release date for its award-winning top-down, 2D paper-folding puzzle adventure game Paper Trail on Nintendo Switch.
It stars Paige, an aspiring academic who leaves home for the first time to pursue her studies in a foldable, paper world. On her journey, you will learn to fold the world around you to solve its puzzles, explore new areas and uncover otherwise long-lost secrets.
The developer has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- A Folding World: Folding and joining paths together to explore and progress. Alter the fabric of the world, contorting, spinning, rotating, twisting as players try to untangle the puzzles.
- Engaging Puzzle And Intriguing People: Puzzles that challenge wits and bring the player through the world of Paper Trail. Travelling through the folds will introduce Paige to a unique cast of characters, who tell their stories and enlighten Paige about the wider world.
- Handcrafted Beautiful Environments: From deep dark caves that have been untouched for years to the tallest treetops buffeted by rain. Explore a variety of handcrafted environments as Paige makes her journey to university, taking in the sights and wonders as she goes.
- An Enchanting Art Style: Experience the art of Paper Trail which draws heavily from flat aesthetic styles, like printmaking and watercolour, blended to create a uniquely styled game that compliments the paper theme.
Paper Trail will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 21 May 2024.
