Upcoming adventure video game "Finding Paradise" gets a new release date and a confusing yet adorable cheeky trailer.
Titled "To the Moon 2," the teaser confused viewers on the new game's actual title. But really, it just gives it a closer relation to its completely independent first installment released in 2011, which was called "To the Moon."
It is a touching story that Eurogamer's Robert Purchese described as "a few hours of game which will stay with me for years."
It took game creator Kan Gao and his small team at Freebird six years to finally make a second episode, but for fans, the more important thing is that it is coming.
Just like the original role-playing game, "Finding Paradise" follows the story of two doctors, Dr. Eva Rosalene and Dr. Neil Watts, whose peculiar job is much more than treating their patients. For those who cannot survive, they allow them to make a wish, so they could somehow live again, at least inside their minds.
The game makes the process simple enough. The doctors use an existing technology that allows them to weave artificial memories on a person's mind, while at the same time taking a peek into their past — memories that probably even their closest family and friends don't even know.
In this way, the patients can live a life they wish they should have lived, but was not able to. However, the process is convoluted that it could only be done on dying patients, so that their last memories would be that of a happy new life.
Just like in the first installment, Eva and Neil will come across a peculiar case — particularly the mind of a Collin Reeds, whose wish "seems rather paradoxical... to change something yet change nothing at all." Freebird Games says his wish is the "same as everybody else."
What is it? Find out as "Finding Paradise" launches on PC and Mac on Dec. 14.
