Description

Paradise is a traditional adventure game set in the lush and tropical atmosphere of deepest Africa. Your character is a young woman found unconscious by African peasants after her plane crashes following a rebel attack. When she wakes, she is in Madargane, Africa, in the harem of a prince with no recollection of previous events. While she believes that her name is Ann Smith, a student attending University in Geneva, the real truth is that she can't remember. Who she is and what she is doing in Africa are a complete mystery to her. Needless to say that those two questions will be the least of her worries as the story unfolds.

Your adventure will encompass four locations in Africa each with its own atmosphere and distinct puzzles to unravel. Explore the palace of the prince, a remote jungle village, an emerald mining complex and a floating city. Eventually, Ann will be accompanied by a beautiful black leopard, whose role players will assume in certain key areas of the game.

Gameplay is point-and-click and you control Ann in 3rd person. The problems Ann must face are varied and include mechanisms of all sorts, inventory objects to collect and use, as well as conversations with various characters that may help or hinder her progress.

High quality cut scenes and introductory cinematics enhance your experience, as does the original soundtrack.
