Tearaway 2013

Is it still worth playing?

Media Molecule's platform adventure for the PlayStation Vita, released in November 2013 and inspired by papercraft. In the papercraft world of ValleyFold, an envelope comes to life as a messenger, Iota or Atoi, and a hole in the sun connects that world to You, the player. It is a third person game that uses almost all of the Vita's features. For example, an elk who needs a new skin can be given one from a picture you take with the Vita's camera, applied to the papercraft animal. The rear touch panel lets you push your fingers up through the ground to interact with enemies and the environment. You can customize Iota or Atoi by drawing designs on virtual paper, cutting them out and applying them to your character. A world made of paper that reacts to your fingers and camera still makes you part of it.
