Paradise Killer vs The Blacklist: Conspiracy
Paradise Killer
Paradise Killer is an open-world murder-mystery game featuring visual novel-style storytelling, fun puzzles to enjoy, clues to track down, colorful characters to interrogate, and a gruesome mass murder of the council members of the Syndicate to solve. In this game, you play as the sole Investigator on Paradise Island, Lady Love Dies, and your own freedom hangs on the line as you hunt down every detail about the case.Paradise Killer is a blend of adventure and visual novel, featuring a storyline that’s just filled to the brim with mystery. As mentioned, the game starts off with a bang – the mass murder of Council Members as the Syndicate made ready to migrate from the current Paradise Island of #24 to what is dubbed as the Perfect 25.
Since the game is basically set in an entire dimension, Paradise Killer is very generous with every possible detail you might be curious about the game world as well as the many wacky and quirky characters that live in it. You can find out a lot of stuff – you are playing as a dutiful investigator, Lady Love Dies, after all! – by tracking down clues, finding hidden notes, and sometimes, simply by making friends and talking to them when their guard is down.
Being an adventure game that’s just filled with hidden stuff to find, the game also hides a whole lot of useful items in the most unsuspecting places, such as in cabinets that you can open or on apartment floors that aren’t as easily accessible. However, being as close to a god as you can be in Paradise Island, you can survive some impressive falls in this game so go hog wild and try to leap off buildings just to access some location with some hidden loot.
Without a doubt, Paradise Killer is in a class of its own! Yes, it is essentially an adventure game with visual novel elements and a strong investigative theme much like Ace Attorney (though you aren’t playing as a lawyer in this game), but it manages to bring all of these elements together and couple it with some truly impressive world-building to create a world that looks and feels mind-blowing to the player.
The Blacklist: Conspiracy
The Blacklist: Conspiracy is an investigative-themed hidden object adventure game based on the popular TV show, The Blacklist, that seems to merge the appeal of law enforcement-style hidden object games like Criminal Case with the secret and often morally-ambiguous world of spies, secret agents, and the FBI. In this game, you play as an FBI agent who has been tracking down the notorious terrorist organization known as The Invisible Hand. However, one day, you unexpectedly received help from a known Wanted criminal, Raymond Reddington, which you acted upon, due to the urgency of the tip-off, without thinking about the consequences of receiving such intel. As such, you end up trapped between doing what's right with the bureau while accepting aid and info from surprisingly reliable yet shady people like Raymond and his associates.Gameplay-wise, The Blacklist: Conspiracy feels a lot like Criminal Case, but it does do some things differently, such as adding in boosts and special timed challenges for scenes from time to time. You'll also sometimes find yourself in the hot seat in an interrogation where you'll be asked about important clues and findings you get from a previous case. Most interesting of all, the game often presents you with a critical moment in the storyline where you get to make a decision so important that it will change the course of your storyline. Most of these moments are moral dilemmas so there isn't really a black-and-white answer.
Sounds like fun? Well, The Blacklist: Conspiracy is free to download and play on all mobile devices, be it Android, iOS or Windows.
