Finding Paradise is an adventure game developed and published by Freebird Games. Serving as a sequel to To the Moon and A Bird Story, the story continues with doctors Eva Rosalene and Neil Watts as they help to fulfill a wish for Colin Reeds, who is now a bedridden old man. As with To the Moon, it features relatively few gameplay mechanics which center around puzzles, with the player controlling both doctors as they solve them in order to reconstruct the dying man's memories in order to fulfill his dying wish. The game was fully designed, written, and composed for by Canadian independent game designer Kan Gao using the RPG Maker XP game engine. Development of the game began in 2015, and it was released for Linux, macOS, and Windows on December 14, 2017. It was released for Android, iOS, and Nintendo Switch on November 18, 2022. A sequel to the series, Impostor Factory, was released in 2021.

Runs well on modern hardware.

After finishing To the Moon and A Bird Story, I was eager to dive into Finding Paradise. On the surface, the setup feels familiar: you once again control Dr. Eva Rosalene and Dr. Neil Watts as they take on a new Sigmund Corp. patient wanting to fulfill a final wish on his deathbed. However, this is far from a simple rehash. Freebird Games manages to craft a fresh, thought-provoking narrative that stands entirely on its own. The writing is top-tier, striking a great balance between humor and genuine emotional depth. Visually, the charm remains intact with expressive pixel art and animations, all elevated by another soaring, beautiful soundtrack. Gameplay-wise, it offers a bit more variety than its predecessor. The signature memory-tile puzzles return with subtle improvements, and the game playfully breaks up the walking-simulator format with unexpected minigames, including brief, hilarious nods to shoot 'em ups like R-Type and classic arcade fighters like Street Fighter. Overall, Finding Paradise is a fantastic follow-up that refines what made the original special while taking the story in a surprising new direction. It's an easy recommendation for any fan of narrative-driven games.
Just go play the game
Jogos como esses da trilogia e assim como em "To The Moon", são experiências curtas, porém únicas. Narrativa impecável de como se contar uma história, personagens cativantes e uma imersão única. Se permita jogar esses jogos, leva em torno de 4 horas mas que ficarão marcadas na sua memória. Importante ressaltar pra jogar sem spoilers.
