About This Game


Strangers On Paper is a story-driven visual novel where your choices will dictate how you navigate reconnecting with people from your past and helping each other towards a better present and future.


Tony has the perfect cure for your writer's block: Go work at his bar, meet some strangers, write about them. Turns out the people you find the most interesting there are not strangers at all, and the front they put up may be hiding a lot more than you initially thought.

On the one hand there's Becca, your best friend's sister and your past debatably unhealthy crush, who is back in town and as detached as always, yet trying to reach out for some reason.

On the other hand, Amy, that popular girl from high school, has chosen to spend her Saturday at a bar that is far away from her seemingly perfect life, on a race to drink her night away.

In every crisis there’s an opportunity, it's up to you to make the best of it.
