“In every fold, a story is hidden; in every shadow, a mystery lurks.” — Tomasz Ostafin, Developer of Papetura.
Fans of puzzle games and unique art styles have something to look forward to this fall.
On November 5th, Papetura Craft Edition will officially launch in a physical boxed version for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, bringing a handcrafted paper world to life in a magical, immersive adventure.
A Handcrafted World of Paper
Papetura, developed by Petums and published by Feardemic, offers players a visually striking experience, where the entire game is built from paper cutouts.
This design choice isn’t just for show—each fold and shadow plays a role in telling the story of Pape, a small paper being, and his companion, Tura, as they face a mysterious fiery threat.
The game’s puzzles are more than just obstacles; they are woven into the fabric of the world itself.
As players guide Pape and Tura through this paper-crafted environment, they must use the characters’ unique abilities to interact with the environment, solve puzzles, and progress in their journey.
The experience is fluid, with the narrative unfolding organically without the need for dialogue. Instead, the game uses animations and visual cues to tell its emotional tale.
Craft Edition Adds Exclusive Features
The upcoming Papetura Craft Edition comes with extra perks for fans. Alongside the game, this physical edition includes a beautifully designed art book and a code to download the original game soundtrack, composed by Floex and Tomas Dvorak.
The combination of stunning visuals and atmospheric music promises a rich, immersive experience for players.
Critically Acclaimed and Award-Winning
Papetura has already garnered positive reviews for its unique artistic approach.
Critics have praised the game’s design, particularly the dedication of Tomasz Ostafin, the game’s creator, in bringing this intricate paper world to life.
The game has also received multiple awards, further solidifying its place as a standout indie title.
