“This is pure escapism, an opportunity to pop on some headphones and be transported into the outback for a short while.”
Kotaku

“In an exhibition hall filled with a cacophony of gun sound effects and the whirr of futuristic paraphernalia from other games, Paperbark cuts through the noise with its calm.”

About This Game

Paperbark is a charming walking sim that tells a beautiful story of a wombat, the bush and a very hot Australian Summer.

Follow a sleepy wombat who is in search for a new home since being devastated by bushfire. Watch as the bush transforms through beautifully stylised interpretations of Australia as the illustrated landscape come to life, with vibrant watercolours and sounds.

This small game, has a big heart that tells an emotive story inspired by iconic Australian storybooks and landscape artists, Paperbark will make a wonderful addition to anyone's library.
