Discover Voodoo's new game: Paper.io. Your goal? To conquer as much territory as possible. It's initially very simple, and the game can be mastered immediately, but watch out: there's competition, and not everyone can win! Whether you're bold or more careful, you have to be more cunning than your adversaries by finding the best strategy to conquer the most space. But be careful! You have a weak spot: your tail. If an enemy touches it, that's the end for you. Try to stay ahead, because victory in Paper.io is never certain until you possess all the territory. Stealing is allowed, and your enemies won't hesitate to do so. After the success of Quiz Run, 1 Pic 8 Words, and Bool, Voodoo now offers you a new gaming and graphics experience inspired by io type games (made popular by agar.io). Enjoy the simplicity and strategy of an io game in a world with unique graphics. Paper.io is for the whole family and doesn't require an Internet connection.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: iTrousers at none against Paper.io's shown. iTrousers also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 49%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Paper.io's advantage is ratings volume (156K vs 20). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iTrousers sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Paper.io sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for iTrousers against 4.5 for Paper.io. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paper.io has 156K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 75% of iTrousers's written reviews are positive against 49% of Paper.io's.
iTrousers ships an update every 3 months, Paper.io every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
