About Paradice

Paradice is a world like Earth where human beings live in and depend on the vitality of their forest environment.

At different moments in their lives, human beings are driven by different needs.

At one time, a human may need to consume and acquire goods.

At other times a human may be driven by a need for social connection or the desire to replenish the environment.

The circumstances that influence those needs and the resources available in a human's life are determined by a mix of predictable patterns and random opportunity.
