Ratalaika Games and Fat Panda Games have announced the digital release of their new title Flat Kingdom Paper’s Cut Edition for consoles. Flat Kingdom Paper’s Cut Edition will release tomorrow on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Flat Kingdom Paper’s Cut Edition was originally released for PC over a year ago however the game is now heading to all consoles.
Flat Kingdom Paper’s Cut Edition is an action platformer set in The Flat Kingdom. It is a beautiful and peaceful 2D land that is under threat by an evil thief and becoming a 3D world. The gameplay involves solving puzzles where you have to switch shapes in order to gain various abilities and use them to progress in the game. The combat is similar to rock, paper, shotgun, and each shape in the game beats another shape.
The shapes you can turn into include triangles, circles, and squares. During combat, sharp triangles can defeat the soft circles, heavy squares can defeat fragile triangles and squishy circles can defeat slow squares. Both enemies and puzzles can be beaten with the correct use of shapes and a little strategy. Check out the trailer for Flat Kingdom Paper’s Cut Edition below to see the combat in action:
The official press release describes the game as:
A long time ago, the Flat Kingdom was threatened by the wicked Third dimension. Just when all hope was lost, a wise sorcerer appeared and created six magical jewels, keeping the dimensions stable and restoring the peace. But one day, the masked thief Hex kidnapped the princess, also taking one of the jewels with him. That caused the 3D chaos to come back, putting the Kingdom in serious danger again.
When everything seemed to be lost, King Square thought about the only one who could fix this mess. His name was Flat, a little but brave 2D doodle-like creature that had the ability to change shapes at will, that way he can overcome all kinds of obstacles and beat the geometric foes.
