Description
Enter the world of SOMA and face horrors buried deep beneath the ocean waves. Delve through locked terminals and secret documents to uncover the truth behind the chaos. Seek out the last remaining inhabitants and take part in the events that will ultimately shape the fate of the station. But be careful, danger lurks in every corner: corrupted humans, twisted creatures, insane robots, and even an inscrutable omnipresent A.I.

You will need to figure out how to deal with each one of them. Just remember there’s no fighting back, either you outsmart your enemies or you get ready to run.
  • From the creators of the cult classic Amnesia the Dark Descent.
  • Spine-chilling horror that raises questions about identity, consciousness and existence itself.
  • Mixes stealth, exploration and puzzles into a coherent narrative experience.

Good + tangible experience one question

A lot was already written ... and all valid about the game. From a story-telling perspective I want to stress one very positive aspect: experiencing the "continuity/discontinuity question" with your character. This question about "copying your cognitive functions" into a clone or a virtual reality was already often tackled in novels, and also the idea to "kill your former form of being" to assure to be yourself and unique. Somehow this game experience made this somewhat theoretical question very tangible and direct ... and also the personal answer you can/will/must find to it with your character. *spoiler alert* Especially the 2-headed dark and bright end give you the last impression on this question.

Haunting

Soma is not as a much horror as it is a science fiction story and trough that it has become scary on a much deeper level than many other horror games.

Insanely good one

This game is one that I would put in world's classic list. The horror setting gives rise of one's emotions and this emotional unity with the protagonist in an inherent part of this game. The plot forces us to deeply reflect on relativity of a human conciousness, persistence of the surroundings and the world itself.

Interesting idea, poor execution..

Interesting setting. That's the positive. On the negative I found the game extremely boring. I wanted to finish it just out of curiosity but i never did. Lots of "puzzles" that have no meaning and no one understands while some "supposed-to-be-scary" monster is patroling. Lots of walking in an environment thats not really changing a lot or is captivating in any way. I give this game 3 stars because of the whole philosophical struggle with consciousness. That was a great idea. The rest of the game is worth 0 stars.
