About Paradigm
Play as Paradigm, a mutant aspiring electronic musician in post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe, who must reluctantly save the world while battling his past in the form of a vomiting candy-dispensing sloth. This surreal point-and-click adventure channels classic LucasArts games with bizarrely charming 2D art, dark humor, and an unforgettable cast of mutants, psychopathic superheroes, and glam metal cult leaders.
Paradigm is a surreal adventure game set in the strange and post apocalyptic Eastern European country of Krusz.
Play as the handsome mutant, Paradigm, whose past comes back to haunt him in the form of a genetically engineered sloth that vomits candy.
Paradigm’s unfortunate life begins at DUPA genetics, a company who sells prodigy children to the rich and powerful who don’t want to leave their inheritance to their poor excuse for biological children.
Something went wrong during Paradigm’s growing process and he was left horribly mutated. To save their reputation, DUPA dumped the hideous infant in a nearby post Neo-Soviet abandoned town, forcing him to fend for himself.
Paradigm didn’t let this get him down and found solace in music. He dreams of becoming the best electronic music artist the world has ever seen! Unfortunately his past is set to catch up with him and he must reluctantly step up as the world’s saviour. When really he just wants to finish his latest EP.
On his journey, Paradigm meets an array of strange characters. Some include: a psychopathic superhero, an evil sloth, a secretary knight , and a glam metal cult leader pug.

- Post apocalyptic: The year is 2026, dial-up is back in fashion.

Game ive had for a long long while that I finally decided to give a try. Interesting art style and very surreal plot. Point and click adventure game that is rather short but packs a bunch of jokes and memes into a decent gameplay experience. Worth a try1 found this helpful
Although it was stupid most of the time it was a pretty short and funny game
Very good game time for all space dust users
Funny and fresh from beginning to end, Paradigm is a traditional point-and-click adventure game full of heart and decapitated heads in jars. The Eastern European setting, great voice acting, and confident comedy shine throughout its roughly six hours. Relatively simple puzzles aside, Paradigm offers a fresh and memorable entry in a genre that I'm happy to see still alive and well.
Yiiss
Phat game, dope.
