Even the line "If I'm sad, I play PAPgame" began living independently across social media through new phrases, jokes, and memes.
New video, new PAPclues
In "IS IT JUST A GAME?", She and He return - protagonists of the Italian animated feature film PAPmusic - Animation for Fashion - wearing the exact same outfits seen at the beginning of the movie.
She has lost a shoe, and He follows her into a maze populated with images of PAPgame. When he finally slides it onto her foot, the expected romantic epilogue is turned upside down: She transforms into a smiling, toothless old woman, played by LeiKiè herself.
Dentures, toilet plungers, and surreal characters sabotage every attempt at seduction, as music, visuals, and gameplay meet in a continuous interplay between romance and nonsense. The video culminates in a dance routine with 30 characters, comprising story characters and target roles of PAPgame.

We wanted to start playing with the audience, uncovering the mystery through music videos. Every song dedicated to PAPgame reveals a new PAPclue, and every answer raises a new question.»
