Paranoia: Deliver Me

I wish I could recommend this game to english speakers. However, this is the equivalent of reading wattpad horror stories by middle schoolers.

I think there is something wrong with my game. (Or it's just a really dumb game with extremely few choices, and the only real ending is a game over end.) I just bought this game, and I got almost no choices. Just some weird random choices in the start, and about 3 choices afterwards. And the only choice that looks like it should matter is whether or not you go to the concert, and one answer leads to an eternal roundabout, and in the other you die. Is there any change in how the game goes based on the random decitions asking about jellyfish and mermaids and ♥♥♥♥? I had very high hopes for this game, but playing it was a big letdown.

Nice game, with nice stories (probably), ruined by the terrible machine translation.

Paranoia: Deliver Me is a psychological narrative adventure developed by Heart-7 Culture Communication (Shanghai) Co., Ltd and published on Steam by SakuraGame. Adapted from a popular novel, the game positions itself as a story-first experience that explores trauma, identity, and the fragile boundary between perception and reality. Rather than relying on complex gameplay systems, it leans heavily into introspective storytelling, inviting players to inhabit the mind of its troubled protagonist and navigate her emotional unraveling through branching dialogue and choice-driven progression. The story centers on Lingluo, a young college student with aspirations of becoming a musician. Her world begins to fracture following a traumatic incident involving her closest friend, setting off a chain of psychological instability that forms the backbone of the narrative. As Lingluo struggles with guilt, grief, and creeping paranoia, the player is drawn into a deeply internal journey. Much of the tension stems not from external threats but from Lingluo’s perception of events—memories blur, reality feels distorted, and relationships grow strained under the weight of unspoken regret. The game’s st…

Paranoia: Deliver Me is a visual novel like any other it tells a story, and the player’s only role is to choose what the character says or does at certain moments. For me, it’s hard to really *review* something like this as a “game.” I’m not saying it’s bad, though it actually has great music, nice character art, and an interesting story. So I’d definitely recommend it to fans of the genre. Nothing against it, it’s just not really my kind of fun. Recommended!

Aside from the "Skip Unread" feature not working, this is a brilliant game with so many branches and different endings to discover. This is more than a visual novel. There are two sequences or chapters that involve a very strategic change in gameplay and they are a bit complex in my opinion so the dev should certainly add more guidance in-game for them. Finally, the soundtrack is absolutely nuts. The menu music sounds like something out of a rap album and the (voiced) ending songs are also really good.
