Paper Trail capitalises on the magic of a single brilliant idea

Eurogamer's Steam Next Fest impressions of Paper Trail, a puzzling treat with a single magic idea.

I'd hazard a guess we've all had to push a heavy object onto a switch to get through a door at some point in our gaming histories, so it's no surprise Paper Trail includes this almost customary puzzle in its demo.

Watch on YouTube Although not as intricate as these two examples in its demo, with an understanding of the impact its paper-folding mechanic can have, Paper Trail feels like it has the potential to wow us all with another trippy puzzler well worth scratching your head over.
