Paper Mall

About

Paper Mall is a minimalist dungeon crawler where you control three schoolgirls in a looped maze hunting for Candy Plates. Each character wears a costume representing The Sun, The Artist, and The Moon, though their roles offer little mechanical distinction. The environment is a repetitive grid of corridors and dead ends, punctuated by basic combat and item collection. Progress relies on memorizing paths and timing encounters, with minimal narrative beyond scattered dialogue snippets. The game’s charm comes from its stark visuals and tight level design, despite its brief runtime. Developed by CAM, the creator of Copper Odyssey, it feels like a prototype refined just enough to function. Players familiar with roguelike mechanics or fans of abstract puzzles might find the challenge engaging, though the lack of variety and depth could wear thin quickly. Released in 2021, it remains a niche pick for those curious about experimental maze games.
