In ParanoCrisis, players are victims of a Psychopath who imprisoned them.
The Psychopath give them an unique glimpse of hope : if a player survive for long enough OR if he is the last alive, then it will be released.
Players will have to participate to a series of polls where they will kill each others.
All polls represents fundamentally different gameplay mechanics. There is currently more than 25 polls.
You start with 5 hearts, if you ever go to 0, you are dead. And trust me when I say that hearts aren't lost one by one ... !
Will you try to survive together ? Or will you be rational and betray what you dare call "your friends" ?
ParanoCrisis goal is to represent the perpetual tension that exists between empathy and rationality.
This game is largely inspired by Game Theory such as Prisoner's Dilemma and Nash Equilibrium.
We take games very seriously.
Especially when friendship can be at stake.
