The story
"Paradigm is a surreal adventure game set in the strange and post apocalyptic Eastern European country of Krusz. Play as the handsome mutant, Paradigm, who's past comes back to haunt him in the form of a genetically engineered sloth that vomits candy."
What it’s like
Surreal, absurd comedy set in a battered, post-apocalyptic landscape, with a dry, offbeat humour that leans on strange encounters rather than grim spectacle. Its vibe is wry and dreamlike, the kind of quirky weirdness you can sit with at a desk on a slow afternoon. Point-and-click pacing suits unhurried sessions: stop, look around, try things, laugh at the odd response. Its people are mutants and eccentrics whose oddities are played for laughs, and the story's mood runs more toward playful bemusement than dread. The sci-fi backdrop is wrapped in abstraction, so the world feels more like a dream logic than a serious future. Intensity looks mild on the evidence available, with comedy in front and any danger treated lightly. It suits players who enjoy oddball adventure games, indie quirk, and a sense of humour that doesn't take itself seriously.
