Paper Trail, an adorable indie adventure, will launch as a Netflix mobile game in 2023.
Newfangled Games and Netflix are set to fold Paper Trail into the online streaming giant’s burgeoning mobile gaming store. Bringing a cozy indie narrative to the platform’s mobile app later this year, this cute puzzler will introduce subscribers to a heartwarming adventure where the world bends to your whim and a young girl must overcome insurmountable odds to save the day.
While players will also be able to experience Paper Trail’s award-winning story on PC, PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One, Series X│S, and Nintendo Switch later this year, Netflix customers will be able to follow Paige, a budding academic leaving home for the first time to pursue her studies. In this inventive new environment, players be able to take on a myriad of puzzles. In order to unwind the answer to each challenge, they will be able to contort, spin, twist, and bend reality.
These wonderfully hand-crafted environments are a wonder to look at, painted in a charming aesthetic. We’ve never quite seen this use of printmaking and watercolor backdrops in a video game, even in the artistically astute Behind the Frame. With over 25 awards and accolades including ‘Best Family Game’ at the Gamescom Awards, it certainly has caught plenty of other attention too. Look at what’s coming in the trailer above, while we get to practicing our origami artistry. In the meantime, check out more about Paper Trail over on the Steam Store page and catch the latest Netflix mobile release, Tomb Raider Reloaded, via the Netflix mobile app.
