About Paradise Killer

Paradise Killer unfolds on an island that exists outside of reality, where a rogue human civilization worships dead alien gods and hopes to resurrect them. The psychic power its believers release is meant to feed those fallen deities and one day bring them back, but that same force attracts demons who corrupt each island until the Council births a new one to replace it. On the eve of that rebirth, the Council is murdered and Paradise itself is killed, setting up a locked-door mystery like no other.

You play as Lady Love Dies, an investigation freak summoned out of exile to find the culprit in what is billed as the crime to end all crimes. Your job is to identify the killer and build an airtight case, then take it to trial and argue your interpretation of the evidence. Only a successful conviction can close the case and save Paradise, which makes how you read the clues matter as much as the clues themselves.

The game leans into a striking distinction between facts and truth. There are many possible killers and many ways to construct a case, so even a convincing prosecution and conviction may leave you wondering whether the real mystery is solved. As an indie adventure with role-playing elements on PC, it hands you an island full of secrets to explore and trusts you to decide what really happened.
