Interesting story, very poor gameplay

SOMA, as you can read in many reviews, has a very interesting story. One can even call it deep in comparison to most video games. However, the gameplay is a letdown: The story is too linear Puzzles are trivially easy Map design is confusing and not creative The story, despite being good, is not unparallelled in its subject or complexity. I am not going into aspects like lack of inventory, skills etc. because that would be a criticism on the genre not the implementation. However, whatever type of game SOMA attempts to be, it fails at it. In the end one ends up playing the game for its story and I don't think it is good enough for me to recommend it to others. For a much deeper, more immersive and creative experience you can check out Prey, System Shock 2 and other similar games. If you like the story and not the gameplay, maybe Talos Principle could be a good choice.

Mostly chill pace. Interesting story.

I got this a while ago, and only started playing it because Linux support, and the underwater screenshots. I'm a couple hours in, and finding it a nice game. It feels very a little like the Rifters series (books by Peter Watts) with the underwater environment. Marine environments just feel cool. So far very nice experience. Just left to explore the story, and not a lot of urgency except for some short sequences. Things are getting revealed at a good pace, and the story is pretty good at grabbing you.

Really fun

The game is tense and scary but without fighting wich is a plus for me. More stealth and anxiety with a touch of moral philosophy and a generous serving of existential dread.

Good story; not 100% on game play

Good story. Enjoyable. Game play though I have one pet peeve well two; quicktime events and camping enemies. Thankfully, both were not over used though.

Fun and creepy

I got this game for free like 6 years ago and I played it for a little bit and lost interest. Mostly because I'm not a huge fan of avoid-the-enemy-while-running-around games that spiked in popularity around 2010. However, over the past few days, I suddenly felt like playing it again. It's about what I expected. It was fun, but a bit overrated, in my opinion. So, the searching and puzzle solving were a lot of fun. Most of the enemy encounters were pretty freaky, while some were just a pain in the butt. There's a lot of plot-development if you pay attention. If you don't, most of the game won't make sense to you. I paid enough attention to see the ending coming miles away. Most of what I'd heard was how well-done the existential horror was. However, it just didn't do it for me. In fact, I rolled my eyes a couple times. I can't really elaborate, as it would most certainly spoil things. In the end, I see why so many people like the story, even if I didn't. Beware that there's really only one ending. The only big problem I had with this game is that there was no way to review your objective. If there was, it was well-hidden. Had a couple times where I had to wander around aimlessly in order to figure out what I was supposed to interact with, etc. So, if you missed the last thing your character or someone else said, too bad, figure it out! I can say with confidence that if you like games similar to Amnesia, you'll definitely like this. If you aren't big on that sort of thing, in contrast, you should either wait for a sale or skip it.
