P0: Byte-Sized Brilliance

P0: Byte-Sized Brilliance is an anomaly-hunting speed run set in PARADISE Corp. You take an investigator interview by checking office floors for anomalies: decide within 10 seconds whether each floor is clear or something is “off.” Clear every floor to escape the loop and reach the bottom. Randomised anomalies range from funny to disturbing, so familiar floors can still surprise you.

Modes and grades

The game has three main difficulty modes and additional sub-difficulties with tougher restrictions. You need to earn a C or above to progress. Each floor receives a grade, alongside a predicted final grade; spotting anomalies correctly and quickly earns higher grades and more credits.

You compete on global leaderboards, where completing 30 floors faster earns a higher position, regardless of mode. Achievements unlock for completing modes, spending credits or performing poorly.

Collectibles and credits

P0 has three types of collectibles. Some contain lore, while others are PARADISE memos that can help you identify harder anomalies. You can spend credits on clues and floppy discs, which unlock more of the backstory and help with the interview.

Monster Buddy

You can also spend credits to customize your desk-bound emotional support Monster Buddy with Monster Mods. Changing Buddy’s appearance lets him express his feelings.
