PAPERHEAD

The pencil draws a bomb, a door, or words

Checked 10 October 2026 · store text, not a playtest

The Steam page lists three pencil uses: sketch bombs and kick them, draw doors and kick them down, and write on walls with no reason required. It does not print an ink cost, a durability number, or a fourth shape such as a gun or a floor.

Published useWhat to tryWhat is not stated
Sketch bombsDraw the bomb, then kick it at an enemy. The store pairs the sketch with the boot.No blast radius or cooldown.
Draw doorsIf a wall looks blank, try a door and kick it.No list of which walls accept a door.
Write wordsThe store says writing needs no reason. Launch-day English reviews also say the pen can scribble a picture.No official claim that writing triggers a puzzle.

Soft's English review says you can scribble any picture with the pen. Gluttonous Beast's review says the pencil can draw pictures on walls. Those are player reports from launch day, not a developer manual.

Previous: release status. Next: how the boot and shotgun join the pencil.
