The last game from Madmind had its share of shortcomings, among them controls, compatibility, or story coherence. However, there is no denying that Agony had a big advantage - devilishly dense atmosphere. Maybe the what, where, and how were not entirely clear, but you could really feel like in hell.
Paranoid is to have the same strong points as Agony. The hero stops distinguishing reality from nightmares and his own imagination. All this to make the player feel like someone who needs urgent hospitalization.
The key issue with this title is whether all will play well technically. These shortcomings in technical aspects caused Agony to be rated poorly, and among them the reviewers listed problems with the title's performance, rough controls, and bugs. Let's hope, that this time, the developers manage to deliver a full product, so that only the hero will have problems finding himself in reality.
An independent project called 78 and a half aims at achieving a similar atmosphere. The main character is to struggle with her own fears, while remaining somehow connected with the hero of her novel, who travels through a post-apocalyptic planet full of forgotten ruins and dead gods.
