Press release:
Madrid, Spain – 3rd July 2024.
Meridiem are today very happy and excited to announce that it will be publishing a physical boxed edition of Papetura, the intriguing action-adventure game handcrafted with paper cutouts. Developed by Petums and digitally published by Feardemic, the physical Papetura Craft Edition will be available later in 2024 across European specialist retailers for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PS4.

Meridiem is responsible for the design and manufacture of this physical version of Papetura, and the release of the Craft Edition will include a specially designed case containing an exquisite art book and a code to download the original game soundtrack.

Players control Pape, a small paper being who, along with his friend Tura, must save their world from a mysterious fiery threat. The gameplay is based on interaction with the environment, using Pape and Tura’s unique abilities to solve various challenges and advance the story.

Puzzle design and narrative intertwine to create a cohesive and fluid experience. The puzzles are designed to be intuitive, integrating naturally with the paper environment. The narrative unfolds without dialogue, using animations and the visual environment to tell an emotional and immersive story.

Papetura received positive reviews for its unique visual style and handcrafted design. Critics praised Tomasz Ostafin’s creativity and dedication in creating the paper world and Floex’s atmospheric music. In addition, Papetura has received several awards and recognition in the video game industry.

Features:

Experience a unique point & click experience, where the story is told through unique animations and sounds. There is no dialogue.

Everything is made of paper, from small insects and creatures to strange monsters, and truly magical places.

A beautiful and ambient soundtrack composed by Floex and Tomas Dvorak

The puzzles are part of the story and the world and further unlock the intriguing narrative.

Papetura Craft Edition will be released as a physical boxed version for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 later in 2024.
