A downloadable game for Windows

ABOUT THE GAME

Paperback centers around a library setting at night with an aggressive thunderstorm raging in the vicinity. 

Dawn Of The Millenium - the year is 2001. You're a novice librarian tasked with keeping things running smoothly and closing up shop for the night. Sort out the shelves, maintain the utilities of the library and take calls as they come in - but keep your ears to the ground; there's something sinister unfurling in Maple Falls County.


GAMEPLAY

Logic-oriented puzzles and mechanics make up most of this game with a fully integrated physics and object-grabbing system, drawing inspiration from horror games of the past and present.

The game takes roughly 30-60 minutes to finish depending on your own individual pace. It features multiple paths the player can take, and even has a secret easter egg. Think you can be the first to find it? 

I would highly recommend playing this at night - the muted orange hue of the library coupled with the dark atmosphere should be very easy on the eyes. An ideal game for those seeking a cozy indie horror experience. Also, headphones are a big must if you enjoy immersive 3D sound design.


This game does not feature any AI content. All voice lines, assets, texts and sound effects have been produced naturally by verified users and commissioned artists. If you think a particular asset featured in the game was generated by AI, please reach out to me at morningraininteractive@gmail.com


While the game is completely free, creating it was sadly not the case. If you enjoyed it, you can support me by clicking here.
