You must guide Iota on an action-platform adventure through a world made entirely of paper, until he is able to escape and enter the real world. Media Molecule's co-founder Alex Evans and lead designer Rex Crowle explained that in Tearaway, you control a character called Iota, who is made from paper and whose head consists of an envelope which contains a personal message for the player.
