Paradise Lust is Flexible Media’s illustrated adventure about a yacht bartender stranded with the other passengers on a South Pacific island. Conversations and personal storylines are interspersed with activities such as fishing, running a bar, painting and assembling jigsaws. Those varied tasks distinguish the game from a visual novel advanced entirely through dialogue. The developer also describes dating-simulation influences. The Steam desktop release lists Windows, macOS and Linux with English interface and subtitles. The game was available in Early Access before its full release.
Gameplay
Follow character stories, explore the island and complete several kinds of subgames. The official list includes fishing, bar operation, painting and jigsaws. Some activities replenish the character’s energy, as described in a 2021 developer update.
