Obscure Sci-Fi Games You May Not Have Heard Of (And That's a Shame)
Cyberpunk 2077, Mass Effect, Fallen Order – these are games that almost anyone knows at least by reputation. But even if you're not a fan of the genre, some of the more obscure SF productions may steal your heart (and a few evenings).

Old Grizzled Gamers: 89 / 100
Beautiful, well-written and relatable, with a soundtrack that beats the emotions out of you like a tear craving monster. Ignore the RPG Maker roots, it's a superb narrative
New Game Network: 84 / 100 by Alex Varankou
Finding Paradise is a great sequel that, while perhaps unable to reach the extremely high emotional bar set by its predecessor, manages to be entertaining and heartfelt all on its own. It's an original and engaging world, supported by tight writing and excellent soundtrack, that is well worth experiencing.
Dragnix: 90 / 100 by Shaun Joy
You'll feel emotions in this follow up To The Moon, and Freebird games keeps the storytelling quality extremely high. Basically, you won't like this if you don't have a soul. Other then that: a must buy.
Finding Paradise Description
Finding Paradise for PC is an adventure title that serves as the continuation of To the Moon published in 2011. Both productions were developed by Freebird Games.
Plot
The game offers a standalone story, so you do not need to know the original title. Once more, there are two doctors who, with the use of futuristic technology, travel into their patient’s mind in order to discover his biggest wish and fulfil it before he passes away.
This time it is Colin who is on his deathbed – as a child, he was the hero of A Bird Story from 2014. The knowledge of the production makes it more enjoyable, but the knowledge of the prequel isn’t mandatory.
Mechanics
The gameplay mechanics are almost identical to those in To the Moon. Primarily, you explore the world, chat with NPCs, and look for orbs that symbolise Colin’s memories. Gameplay is complemented with occasional puzzles and mini games, but the title still puts emphasis on telling an interesting story.
Technical aspects
The title draws inspiration from 16 and 32-bit Japanese role-playing games. The soundtrack is composed by Kan Gao – the man responsible for music in To the Moon and A Bird Story.
