Bird of Paradise

An interactive visual novel probing the nature of human relations and bonds.

Jheel, a young lawyer, and Agneya, a young doctor, meet while working on the Bhopal Gas Tragedy. Jheel is representing the corporations that are accused of causing the tragedy, while Agneya is volunteering to help the victims. Despite their differing viewpoints, they get along well and move-in together only to split a few years later.

Play from both Jheel and Agneya’s perspectives as the game progresses. Make choices that affect other characters along the way as you stitch together the pieces of the couple’s past in an attempt to bring them together again.

Bird of Paradise, developed by the Indian game studio Lost Ferry Interactive, is the first in a series of mini-games that build up to Paperplanes.
