Foldlings
Origami pet game · iPhone and iPad
Fold paper friends crease by crease, then care for them in a paper world called your Haven.
Choose a Foldling and a paper, then fold it step by step by dragging each flap into place. When it’s finished, your new friend comes to life in your Haven, where you can feed it, play with it, build it a home, and get to know its personality. On a foldable iPhone, you can also fold the paper by folding the phone.
Preparing for the App Store
Foldlings is being prepared for its first release. This page will link to the App Store when it is available.
Care for your friends
- Feed hungry friends their favorite treats, play fetch, and teach tricks as your bond grows.
- Build and decorate homes where friends visit, rest, and hold tea parties.
- Send friends exploring, and welcome them home with souvenirs and stories.
- Each friend has its own quirks, markings, and memories, and friends can become best friends.
Seven worlds to rebuild
The Meadow, Seaside, Snowy Peaks, Autumn Woods, Desert Oasis, Sakura Grove, and Firefly Night each have their own weather, wild visitors, and activities. Every world also has a landmark in ruins, such as a lighthouse or a tea house. Friends who live there rebuild it piece by piece on work shifts that earn paper cranes, and each stage adds a lasting bonus.
Lanterns, eggs, and rare friends
Paper, Silk, and Moon lanterns are opened with paper cranes earned in the game. They hold papers, hats, furniture, and rare friends from Japanese folklore, such as the nine-tailed Kitsune and Seiryu the azure dragon. The chance of every prize is shown in the app before a lantern is opened, and a lantern never gives something you already own. Happy friends sometimes lay paper eggs that hatch into rare companions.
Arcade and trading
Play arcade games with one of your friends, including Shrine Run, Sky Glide, Snow Sled, and Pond Fishing. Paper Post trades Foldlings and sends friends on playdates between two nearby iPhones or iPads over Bluetooth or peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, with no account or shared network needed.
Purchases
Foldlings is free to play, with no ads or subscriptions. Optional in-app purchases add Foldling packs, papers, worlds, hats, and paper cranes. Packs are permanent; the App Store shows each price in your local currency before purchase.
Privacy
No account is required. Your Haven is saved on your device and backed up to your own iCloud account. Foldlings sends anonymous play statistics to help improve the game, and you can turn them off in Journey → Privacy. Read the Foldlings privacy policy.
