PaperFlip is a one-thumb arcade game with a twist: the origami crane stays still — you fold the paper around it. Hold to fold. Release to spring back. Align the notches with the crease and slip through. Fold too little and you hit the wall. Fold too far and the paper crushes you. Chase Perfects, Combos, and your ghost best-score line. Simple to learn. Brutal to master.
