If you are looking for a lighthearted, old-school 3D collectathon platformer to add to your library of PC games, Paperman: Adventure Delivered offers a fun and colorful journey. As we highlight in this article, it is the perfect choice for players who just want to kick back, run around tropical islands or sandy deserts, and collect everything in sight without worrying about overly complicated mechanics. Whether you want to play solo or team up with your friends in local split-screen co-op, this charming indie adventure brings plenty of nostalgic vibes straight to your desktop setup.
Storyline
The story is simple, cute, and very family-friendly. The local post office has just hit a massive milestone of one million deliveries. To celebrate, they decide to send out special golden letters to their most loyal customers. However, a greedy dragon happens to see the news on television and decides he wants all that shiny paper for his treasure hoard. Using his ancient magic, he attacks the post office and steals all the mail. It is up to the titular hero, Paperman, and his quirky crew of mail carriers to travel across different worlds and retrieve the stolen packages before it is too late.
Gaming experience
Playing Paperman: Adventure Delivered is all about using the right skills at the right time. You can swap between four different characters at mailboxes, each bringing a unique ability to the table. Paperman can throw letters and teleport, Express runs super fast, Scrolly glides over big gaps, and Carl is the heavy lifter for moving boxes. Navigating the puzzles and grabbing all those tricky golden letters requires you to constantly switch up your team. While it is a fun throwback addition to modern PC games, the real highlight is the local multiplayer mode, which makes collecting mail infinitely more chaotic and entertaining when you have a friend by your side.
