Paper Toss

Paper Toss is the classic office game of throwing a crumpled ball of paper into the bin, drawn as a bright cartoon office seen from your desk. Drag the ball toward the bin and let go: the direction of the drag aims the throw and its length sets the power. A desk fan on the wall blows across the room, and its ribbon and number tell you how hard and which way, so you aim into the wind. The ball flies with real gravity and air drag, bounces off walls, filing cabinets, the water cooler and the whiteboard, lands in front of or behind the bin, and a rim hit plays out in slow motion. A sleepy office cat on your desk wakes up to watch every throw.

Forty hand-built levels are spread over four offices: the Startup Loft, the City Bank, the Newsroom and the Space Station, where gravity is low and the ball floats up to the ceiling. Each level adds something new, from swinging lamps and bins on trolleys to ceiling fans, plants that catch the ball and a second blue bin for a bonus. Every level has three stars: get it in the bin, do it within par, and earn the bonus with a trick shot off the whiteboard, a bounce off the lamp or a ball in the blue bin. Levels are quick, retry is instant, and the dotted aiming line on the first levels comes back as a hint later on.

Overtime is the endless mode: a streak of throws where the bin moves and the fan changes after every throw. Bins in a row raise the multiplier, nothing-but-bin swishes and bank shots score extra, and three misses end the shift. Your high score is saved in your browser. Play with a mouse or a finger, or set the angle and power with the arrow keys and throw with Space.
