Is Paparazzi worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Friends seeking local competitive games with two opposing roles
- Players who enjoy short arcade matches built around chasing and hiding
- Solo players who want to practice as the celebrity against AI
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a deep progression system or extensive character development may bounce off the compact arcade structure.
- Players wanting large-scale multiplayer may hit the two-role local format as a limit.
- Players looking for a broad single-player campaign may find the celebrity-versus-AI mode too narrow.
Our take on Paparazzi
The likely bounce point arrives when a player wants more than the central chase: the game offers six levels, four celebrity powerups, and a single-player celebrity-versus-AI mode, but its structure remains focused on repeating the same two-role contest.
What is Paparazzi?
Paparazzi is a local multiplayer cat-and-mouse game for two opposing roles: a celebrity who runs, dashes, and hides, and a paparazzo who takes photos.
Each round ends when the celebrity reaches the limo, with the winner determined by dignity or money. Photos increase the paparazzo’s money and reduce the celebrity’s dignity, while collecting an adoring fan restores some dignity. A single-player mode matches the celebrity against paparazzo AI. The game includes six levels, seven characters, four celebrity powerups, and jokes, with Xbox 360 controller support.
