NAMCO BANDAI Networks Europe Ltd recently launched its newest mobile game, aimed squarely at fun loving casual Players everywhere. Paper Planes lets you build, balance and fly
your very own paper planes as you try to beat a series of trials and challenges based on accuracy, distance or even acrobatics.

Players create their plane by choosing a basic design, then adjusting the weight and angle of the flaps to alter the flight characteristics. Then, once the important engineering is done, you get to see how your plane performs.

By setting the power and angle of your throw you can see how your plane flies, skipping back to the design page to tweak the basic settings and get your plane exactly how you want it. Using just these simple controls, you can customize the performance as much as you want in almost endless combinations.

The game is perfect for just picking up and playing - players can choose to complete a world tour, with a host of different objectives that need to be reached - each requires a slightly different set-up for your plane. As the tour progresses so does the difficulty, and crisp, colorful graphics has been used to
