Company: Ubisoft
Date: 28 Apr 2006
SAN FRANCISCO – April 27, 2006 – Today Ubisoft, one of the world’s largest video game publishers, announced that Paradise™ for the PC has shipped to retail stores. Paradise is the latest adventure game from the critically acclaimed designer Benoît Sokal and his studio, White Birds Productions. Paradise has an ESRB rating of “T†for Teen and an MSRP of $39.99.
“Ubisoft is committed to introducing the most innovative adventure games in the industry and continues that tradition with Benoît Sokal’s Paradise,†said Tony Key, vice president of marketing at Ubisoft. “Paradise will captivate adventure fans and new players alike with its engrossing story, stunning environments and intuitive puzzles, fully immersing gamers in what is sure to be the best adventure game released this year.â€
From the creator of the award-winning series Syberia comes Benoît Sokal’s fascinating new work, Paradise. Sokal’s latest adventure-game masterpiece is set in four different worlds in the heart of darkest Africa. From the arid lands of Madargane to the dense jungle of the Maurania River, the world is both primitive and contemporary. Fraught with political turmoil, the lush landscapes are beautiful and dangerous.
Paradise places players in the role of Ann Smith, a young woman suffering from amnesia struggling to make her way home and avoid the conflict surrounding her. To discover her true identity, she must escort a strange black leopard back to the land where it was born. Follow Ann through her journey as she finds clues to her identity and unravels the truth behind her mysterious past.
Key Features:
Unparalleled Artistry: Paradise presents a unique blend of a semi-realistic sub-Saharan world and an ethereal fantasy. Africa comes to life as a breathtaking visual experience. Both the cinematics and more than 350 backgrounds include Sokal’s unique and visionary artistic direction.
Cinematic Storyline: Ann Smith, a college student from Geneva, loses her identity and must journey through uncharted corners of Africa to unravel her past. How has Ann come to be in a place so wrought with turmoil? Why is her fate tied to that of a black leopard? Is Ann the daughter of a fierce dictator? Unlock these secrets and more as the story unfolds.
Sets Benchmark for Adventure Games: Puzzle solutions are seamlessly embedded in the story as players interact with their environment and other characters to gain insight into clues that will help reveal Ann’s true identity and answer why she’s in this strange African land.
Real-time 3D: Adding a new “action†element to the traditional slideshow style of play, the real-time 3D graphics take over as the player becomes the leopard, searching for a way home.
