    Paperbound is a frantic easy to learn but hard to master local multiplayer bout. 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.

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. Expand

    For such a simple game it is a lot of fun. 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.

    The handful of game modes provide limited fun in Paperbound. Created to suit a party environment, it’s the type of game you break out when friends are over for a quick brawl or two before moving on to the next game.

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

    The idea is good, but because of its lack of content and its repetitive nature, the novelty wears off quite soon.
