Mainly how-to-play. Paper World is covered on BoardGameVideo.com by 3 reviews and 4 how-to-play guides.
From BoardGameGeek
In Paper World, each player takes on the role of a traveler trying to recreate the landscapes they have seen during their journeys using layers of paper. Stack the various layers of paper you find to have the most victory points at the end of the game. On your turn, you can either: TAKE one or more cards. PLACE one or more cards in front of you, forming your landscape. In both cases, the rule is the same: take / place cards of the same color or the same value. When only 2 piles of cards remain in the center at the end of a player's turn, the end game is triggered. Each player, including the one who triggered the end of the game, plays one more turn before the final scoring. The player with the most stars on the cards wins. In case of a tie, the player with the fewest cards in their discard pile wins.
