Continuing one of the most hectic release periods in adventure history, today Ubisoft announced that Paradise has shipped to retail stores in North America.

Paradise is the new game by acclaimed designer Benoît Sokal, best known for his work on the Syberia series. The first game from Sokal's new studio, White Birds, Paradise promises to bring the same artistry and imagination, this time to the African continent in the role of a young amnesiac named Ann Smith. In the third-person, point and click adventure, players must guide Ann on her journey through four unique worlds as she escorts a black leopard back to its home, searching for clues to her own identity along the way.

For a (literal) change of pace, the game occasionally switches to real-time 3D, giving players an opportunity to control the panther, whose physical abilities will be essential for Ann to proceed.
