Finding Paradise

9.5/10

corinthians 13:8

This is a must play, anything more would spoil the story and the deep concepts in it.

Amazing Game - I would recommend this game to every enjoyer of great stories.

The dialogues - the story. Truly a masterpiece written with care and plenty of humor along the way.

The gameplay is very simple and straightforward - Personally I believe it suits this game perfectly, and the game definately makes up for it by having some great visuals in pixel art style (and ... did I already mention - A great story)

Good game, however it's my least favourite of the series. Necessary to play the others though, so cannot miss. Game is good, so is the soundtrack, but if I had to make my own ranking of the games of the series, this would be last.

one of my favorite game series ever makes me cry at random just thinking about it 10/10/10/10/10

kan gao you bastard

There goes Freebird again, leaving me a blubbering mess in the aftermath. I genuinely don't know how they manage to do it every time. This is another one I played many years back, having returned since I loved these stories so much. It was released at an extremely pivotal time in my teenage years and is the most relatable for me.

Finding Paradise is the second installment in the To The Moon series, and dare I say the most unexpected. Just like its predecessor, you begin the story as Doctors Rosalene and Watts are called to fulfill a man's dying wish. Only this time, Colin's dying wish isn't quite as black and white as John's was, but highly unconventional. Jumping through time doesn't flow as well - and for a good reason. In this episode, you will explore themes of loneliness, fear of the future, regret, and the natural human desire for companionship, which can sometimes border on the desperate. Again, this game has a huge psychological impact, one I believe many should also be able to relate to.

They made improvements in areas where its predecessor fell short, such as controls, which are slightly better this time around (hello, WASD!), dialogue, which seems to flow more naturally, and jokes that are a bit more tasteful. The mini-games are more enjoyable and fun to play as well. There's even included lore about Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts' relationship to one another and Sigmund Corp as a whole, which further adds intrigue and wonder.

Overall, Finding Paradise is an absolutely lovely addition to the series, sure to leave you clutching your pillow and asking, "Is that all there is?" I highly, highly recommend it to anyone wondering if this is worth it. Here's your sign—it is. Just be sure to play To The Moon first. I promise there will be no regrets.

one of the best and most hart worming games that I have ever played. It is the only game that has ever made me cry.

A worthy follow up to "To The Moon." If someone recommended you play a pixel-art game that looks like an old school 16-bit RPG but set in modern times, has no combat (well, mostly), and is narrative-heavy, most people would probably say "No, thanks."

And most people would be depriving themselves of an excellent title that proves how you can use things we've all seen before to create something great that is bigger than the sum of its parts. Kudos to the writers, too.

Even when I thought I had figured out what was going on in Colin's memories, they still managed to stick the landing (pun somewhat intended) and make tear up a bit at the end,

An amazing follow-up to "To the Moon"

I really enjoyed this, technically it's a game but it feels more like reading a good book. The story is touching and like the original it weaves in interesting psychological situations. My guess is that whoever wrote this works in the mental health industry. It's gritty and interesting.

fk dude i love freebird
This... idk how to explain it
It's an exceptional piece of art
soundtrack, artstyle, storytelling
If story driven games are your thing, absolutely go nuts for this

Faye's story made me tear ngl

Absolute Cinema

I played Imposter Factory first before playing this, so I kinda guessed about Faye's true identity, But it was still fun though-I'm hoping to see more contents about Neil and Eva.

Another beautiful gem from Freebird Games.

paradise....

beutiful

What an absolutely wonderful game! Unlike Impostor Factory, this one delves into a deeper appreciation for life. I deeply relate to its exploration of wanting more from life versus growing content with how it has shaped you—along with the regrets that come with it, even if they seem insignificant to others. This was a beautiful experience, and I can only say the same for every other game from Freebird Games.

The narrative grips you from the very beginning. However, its biggest challenge is that it was released in the shadow of To the Moon, a beloved title that set high expectations, making comparisons inevitable. Even so, it manages to deliver a heartfelt story that is well worth experiencing.

nice story.

I’ll never be the same after playing this heartbreaking masterpiece

jarvis, grab me a tissue

will be waiting for the next client story and about the the watt thing

The stakes of To The Moon are high, but this game's journey holds up well. Haven't seen the ending, dropped it for life priorities reasons back then, will eventually replay the whole Freebird Games series.

A beautiful story

It's another good game of Freebird games. I wouldn't say it's better than other titles, but it has it's peaks.

Clunky interface, immature dialogue, and unlikable 'doctors' make this feel less like a narrative triumph and more like an adolescent's first Game Jam output.

I simply could not muster the desire to continue.

博士俩一如既往的好磕。但是Neil，你真的太逊啦！

Please Stop making us cry like a baby Freebird Games..

2024 I completed "To the moon"

and now its this game...

now I need weeks to recover again, Thank you

Really, really good story...

竟然是比《去月球》更为感动和震撼的神作！仿佛玩到了属于游戏界的《妄想代理人》，只不过高瞰的笔触更加温柔和细腻，并最终将其呈现为了一个在不断反转之中令玩家的情绪从讶异到厌恶再到和解和感动的，温柔的反向结局。玩过前传《鸟的故事》后玩本作的冲击力更是加大一层，在Colin和Faye讲述自己童年时刻幻想出了鸟类朋友的故事时不由得心头一紧，但未想到Faye与那些飞鸟竟是同样的对位。Colin终其一生后悔的事很多，但到头才发现它们既不关乎Faye也不关乎后来的Sofia，只关乎他自己与记忆如何能在创伤中慢慢和解。于是现实和妄想就这样不可思议地拥有了某种能够共存的可能，而Faye和Sofia成了这两端各自的守护者，一个会给他最好的拥抱并原谅一切他在爱里的笨拙，另一个则会在最后来告别，说：“好久不见，老顽固。” Faye，谢谢你让他有勇气坚持自己的偏执、对抗我的孤独，Sofia，谢谢你，让他体会到了真正的温柔，而且还能清楚地明白这并非是一场他一厢情愿的好梦而已。最后向Colin，我拼尽全力拯救的人致谢，谢谢你让我知道有时候一个普通的愿望本身可能就是让它普通地存在着。很荣幸与你共度生命的最后时刻，也同样充满敬佩地与你告别，一位可能并不完美，但没人比你更加完美的飞行员。你现在可以飞了。

Play "To The moon" first!

I love the narrative of these games.
I don't know when I will cry, but I know it will happen.
Let's see when it's time to delve into Impostor Factory.

Doesn't quite reach the level of To The Moon, but still hits hard in the feels. A must play if you enjoyed the first.

Balancing the Scales

Ah man i didn't knew a 2d game could make me cry, i don't know how many games are there like this, but i know for sure that there aren't enough, thank you freebird for creating this masterpiece, looking forward to your new games, best of luck

This game gave me what I was looking for when I played To The Moon. Also, you'll never guess where this plot goes in the third act.

I lost my shit when they connected A Bird Story to this game and at the ending.

Finding Paradise

The game was pretty niche... A very specific topic... Not everyone might understand the concept. But I think this game was meant for me. Thank you for making it real. I bet this kind of story won't even exist from a big game developer knowing how niche it is.

For a more comfortable experience, I used an alternative version, which made the gameplay smoother. Overall, the game is solid, but the first part—To the Moon—set such a high bar that even the addition of new mechanics and more humorous moments couldn’t completely shake off the feeling of some incompleteness.

The story this time is even more engaging. While To the Moon focused on evoking deep emotions and touching the player’s heart, Finding Paradise presents a more dynamic narrative with plenty of intriguing moments. By the end, the game turns into a true spectacle of events that may seem chaotic at first but ultimately intertwine perfectly into a cohesive storyline.

The soundtrack deserves special mention—it is, as always, top-notch and perfectly complements the game’s atmosphere. Overall, Finding Paradise is a fantastic sequel that expands the series’ possibilities, offering deeper gameplay and storytelling. However, it doesn’t always manage to surpass the emotional impact of the first game.

Definitely don't play before To The Moon, but if you liked that game you'll probably like this one. Touching story, great music, and fun characters

Emotional rollercoaster with a fascinating premise

Sucessor digno de "To the Moon", o que é dizer muito sobre esse jogo. A qualidade narrativa é mantida para tratar com profundidade e sensibilidade sobre vida, morte e liberdade. Este é um game sobre a beleza que vêm da tristeza de nos percebermos finitos, e sobre como a jornada compensa.

I have no idea what went wrong, but this is not even close to "To The Moon" in my opinion. Maybe the theme of the wish was not for me, I honestly have no idea. I'm not saying the game overall is bad, I just personally didn't like the story. Art is good as always and the writing is fire.

not good as to the moon game but i can say this one is good game 9/10

I cried a lot. Fun game that was rewarding and had solid comedic relief.

This is a sequel to "To the Moon" and it is a wonderful story. Albeit, it isn't as good as the first one, it is still a beautiful game! I enjoyed the humor and the emotional roller coaster.

A beautiful game that could kill you.

Such a great game, engaging story and well written characters. By the end i definitely got a little emotional, the story really makes you think about life. In the beginning it seemed like a cliche childhood crush trope, but thats not case. To anyone who loves rpgs, give it a try <3 you will not regret it!!
