Tearaway
Tearaway is a platform adventure game developed by Media Molecule and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released in 2013 for the PlayStation Vita, and in 2015 for the PlayStation 4 as Tearaway Unfolded.
The game is set in a papery world, and the player controls a character named iota or atoi, a messenger who is tasked with delivering a special message. The player can interact with the world in a variety of ways, using the Vita’s touchscreen and rear touchpad. For example, the player can tear apart the environment to create new paths, or use the flashlight to reveal hidden objects.
Tearaway was praised for its innovative gameplay, creative use of the Vita’s features, and charming art style. It won several awards, including BAFTA Games Award for Artistic Achievement and BAFTA Games Award for Mobile & Handheld.
Tearaway Unfolded is an expanded version of the original game, with new levels, challenges, and features. It also supports two-player co-op, where a second player can use a smartphone or tablet to interact with the world.
