    As it stands, the game is a must-own if you have a consistent group of 3-4 players.

    Paperbound is a riot, and a ton of fun to play with a group of people.

There are over 14 characters to choose from, tons of stages, and over 6 game modes. For once, a local multiplayer indie game lets you play against friends with or without the addition of bots. Paperbound is on sale for $7.99 this week. If you liked Towerfall Ascension's gameplay Paperbound will feel right at home. My only complaints are that the stages feel too big for 1v1 matches and the characters only differ for aesthetic reasons. Still, this game is worth it and deserves your purchase. Full Review »

There are a fair amount of different characters that don't really matter much except for their size as everyone does the same thing. Where this game is great, is how quickly the matches are and how responsive all the controls are and switching your gravity mid-jump can make for some very fun and crazy movement. Full Review »
