Welcome to Papertrail Studios, a Singapore-based indie game studio and publisher founded by Elseth Games and Purple Herring Games. We're committed to creating games that tell memorable stories which tickle the funny bone and tug on the heartstrings in equal measure. We also publish equally unforgettable games from other indie studios!

What we do

We craft story-driven games that blend humour, heart, and unforgettable characters.

From romantic comedies to supernatural mysteries, our titles are built by a small passionate team with big ambitions. Have a look at our games below!
