Description

Superliminal is a first-person puzzle game based on forced perspective and optical illusions. Puzzles in this game give you a sense of the unexpected. Players need to change their perspective and think outside the box to wake up from the dream.

WAKE UP

As you fall asleep with the TV on at 3AM, you remember catching a glimpse of the commercial for Dr. Pierce’s Somnasculpt dream therapy program. By the time you open your eyes, you’re already dreaming - beginning the first stages of this experimental program.


PERCEPTION IS REALITY

Explore a dream world where everything is exactly as it seems. Tread carefully as the world slowly unravels around you and subverts your expectations. What you see isn’t always precisely what you get.

MAN VS MACHINE

In this fully-voiced adventure, Dr Glenn Pierce is doing his questionable best to guide you home and out of the dreamscape. His artificial intelligence assistant, however, is having trouble understanding exactly how you’re here at all, and has other plans for you.


DEVELOPER COMMENTARY

We’ve added an extensive developer commentary throughout the game, so you can learn the secrets and history behind the game’s development.


CHALLENGE MODE

The overwhelming response from the speedrunning community to Superliminal inspired us to add a new Challenge Mode, which will score you per-level on metrics such as time to finish, grabs, and jumps.

Worth playing

Very fun and crazy game (in the very good meaning of the word)... The puzzles are really refreshing... The design is fantastic... (I love the progress bars of the game) I recommend it absolutly to people who like puzzle game where the engine of resolution is the intuition. It will open your mind. This is the aim of this game. The solution is sometimes out of the box. You have to immerse into the puzzle to solve it and you succeed in with your intuition. Nevertheless, there are two negative points : - the length of the game... a little too short for a so good game - a few bugs or glitches when passing through doors... sometimes (randomly) you can found yourself out of the decor but I hope it will be solved with a patch (restart from the last control point)

A one of a kind experience

Superliminal is the type of game that will leave a lasting impression on whomever plays it. Its puzzles rely on out-of-the-box thinking and clever use of non-Euclidian geometry. The resulting experience is cerebral, but of a different kind than other puzzle games. It is a very short game, perhaps too short for its price, but every minute of gameplay contributes to a satisfying playthrough that, were it any longer, could overstay its welcome. Definitely recommended.

One of the best games ever

The style is amazing, and the gameplay forces you to think, and it is fun. I highly recommend playing this game. I just wish there were workshop levels or something

Wow!

Yeah, right, its a 3h game for 15€...not great, right? WRONG! If you like portal, Stanley Parable or things in that realm, thats a banger! Wonderful storytelling, perfect voice acting, crazy mechanics. Its not "your head is going to explode" dificult, not easy, but right in the sweetspot, perfectly challenging, fun and packed with twists. 100% recommended!
