Midnight Caravan vs Paradise Killer
Midnight Caravan
Midnight Caravan is a visual novel that features fantastic hand-drawn art (there are some adult imagery - you've been warned!) and an intriguing storyline of seeking revenge against an unknown foe. In this game, you play as the victim of “fake news” in the Georgian era. With your new caravan of outcasts to protect, you’ve decided that enough is enough! You set off on a perilous journey to hunt down the mysterious Cassini, who has completely destroyed your previous life before he destroys this new life you’ve built for yourself as well.As the story progresses, you’ll be given decisions to make. Every choice you make will then change the path of the story, whether it is for better or worse. As with any visual novel or gamebook, there are many paths that will lead to your doom, so tread lightly and above all else, make your story count!
Midnight Caravan is a truly fascinating visual novel with a story that feels as though it came right out of a TV drama directed by Dan Brown. Following every lead and clue you get, you’ll slowly push back the fog shrouding the mysterious, and very malicious, Cassini, and finally, get the vengeance you so desire!
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.
