You must fold the paper in various ways to open paths and help her solve puzzles.\u00a0 Paper Trail is available on pretty much anything you can play a game on, but it\u2019s reviewed on Switch here.<\/p>\n<p>To control the girl, you\u2019ll use the left stick to move her around.\u00a0 Later you\u2019ll be able to highlight objects and move them around, too.\u00a0 Press the button for her to interact with objects, like pushing rocks.\u00a0 The right stick brings up a different icon, and when you bring it over the sides and corners of the paper, you can press the R trigger button to \u2018grab\u2019 it and fold it over.\u00a0 The paper has objects on the back, and you can fold the paper to create paths for the girl to reach areas and solve puzzles.\u00a0 You can view what\u2019s on the back of the paper with another button as well.\u00a0 It kind of reminds me of origami. Controls can be a bit cumbersome, but I think they made them about as intuitive as they could.<\/p>\n<p>The best part of the game for me was the hint system, which you can bring up and use at any time to see how to fold the papers.\u00a0 You can view each step at a time so you don\u2019t have to reveal everything.\u00a0 It\u2019s just handy if you get stuck.\u00a0 I\u2019m not too good with origami anyway so I was glad for the hint system because I had a hard time wrapping my head around the puzzles.\u00a0 Only thing I can do with origami is make boulders!\u00a0 Even though the game didn\u2019t hold my interest as long, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s a bad game.\u00a0 If you like block pushing puzzles and origami, you may want to check this one out.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/paper_screen-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24637\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/PAPER_SCREEN.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/PAPER_SCREEN.jpg 500w, http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/PAPER_SCREEN-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/PAPER_SCREEN-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nothing violent or objectionable here.\u00a0 Reading skill is a must, and the game could be somewhat educational as it requires logic and thinking skills.\u00a0 Younger gamers may need help with the controls and puzzles, though.\u00a0 Paper Trail is rated E for Everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Help a girl on a journey as she leaves home to follow her dreams in Paper Trail.\u00a0 You view the action in a top down fashion and each screen is a piece of paper.
