Paper Trail is a beautiful and intricately unique puzzle game created by Newfangled Games, the same team who worked on IPs such as Fortnite, Lego, Angry Birds, and BBC’s Doctor Who. Composed of creators who have worked individually on games such as Hue, Mortar Meon, Mush, and Qube, the team featuring Henry Hoffman, Frederick Hoffman, and Claudie Mackula banded together to create this wonderful gem.
Over the last few years since its creation, Paper Trail has accumulated various awards from 2021 to 2023 and has since been published on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Series X and Series S, Playstation 4 and 5, Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
The game features Paige, a young woman living in the forgotten seaside town of Southfold who longs to study at a university. The problem is that her parents don’t want her to go. But this doesn’t stop young Paige from bending the space time continuum just to have the university life of her dreams! The game brings you to various gorgeously drawn locations as Paige travels from her hometown to the university.
While the game itself has a very simple game mechanic which is easy to understand, figuring out how to move to the next map can sometimes be tricky. This is why we at Level Winner picked up this game and wrote a step-by-step walkthrough to get past each and every level and chapter. From the easiest puzzles to the hardest ones, along with the achievements that can be unlocked, we have it covered in this article!

Chapter 1: Home
For this chapter, refer to the image below for the map of the scene and the legend of the symbols and lines that appear.
In this level, the basic mechanics are introduced and explained. Each area of the map can be folded to create new paths and reveal secrets.
- Top and Bottom edges can be folded horizontally.
- Left and Right edges can be folded vertically.
- Corners can be folded diagonally.
- A folded area cannot be folded again, but it is possible to make more than one fold on an area or map.
Some areas also have carvings that can be connected by folding to open a passageway.
Origami can be found in certain areas but are completely optional and not necessary to progress the story. Collecting all of them is an extra challenge that can earn you achievements. To find the origami for each chapter and other achievements, check the “Achievement” section of this guide.

Chapter 9: City
For this chapter, refer to the image below for the map of the scene and the legend of the symbols and lines that appear.
In this level, lighthouses are replaced with spotlights and lanterns are replaced with light towers. 3 new mechanics are also introduced:
- Mirrored Maps – Most maps in this chapter are connected to one or more maps. Any changes to one map can affect the other map. Note that there will still be some maps in the group that stand alone which are often located in the middle.
- Portals – These can absorb light beams and release it to another portal of the same color. It is possible for light beams to travel through more than one portal.
- Split Bridges – These work like the trap doors in Chapter 4 and can only be connected after a light tower or all light towers have been activated with the light beam from the spotlight.
