    The game is short but it's enough to appreciate a great story and mood. It looks amazing not only for an indie studio. Plus it's 10$ - definitely worth the money. Must play for ppl who appreciate intriguing story over cheap effects, explosions, and shooting waves of enemies.

    loved it all the way through,

    Sure you walk slow, but the story and the love they put into it on how it looks it amazing, it has more detail than any big budget AAA game i have played for the last year!, it really is a must play if you think you will like it.

    I don't remember playing game with such an intriguing story. From the beginning to the end(one of them), I was enjoying every moment. Atmosphere was perfect and getting better with every letter, document or tape I found. Voice acting was nothing extra, but Ewa was so lovely. Environment and locations surprised me.

Voice acting was nothing extra, but Ewa was so lovely. Environment and locations surprised me. From the stone-cold bunker to interiors I found later, everything was perfect. Also background music and other sounds made the atmosphere so great. But it was the story you will enjoy the most. It's narrative, plotwist and slower pace. Can't wait to play it again with different choices and see their outcomes.
    The only things I would change are movement of Szymon and manual saves instead of checkpoints. On the other side, because of slower walking, I had more time to look around me and enjoy every detail of my way through this amazing game.    … Expand

    Paradise Lost offers an engaging story set in a fascinating world, and it’s hard not to notice and appreciate all the work that went into polishing the environments. Sadly, there’s very little actual gameplay here and while the first two hours made me feel like an explorer delving into the unknown, I only reached the end because I had to. [05/2021, p.39]

    Dripping with atmosphere, the sights and sounds of a lost end-of-the-world Nazi installation make up for a lack of interaction in Paradise Lost.

    There's no development to be found in the details of Paradise Lost's development to be found in the details of Paradise Lost's carefully crafted props - that's all saved for cutscenes and diary entries. [Issue#358, p.112]
