”They’re not us.”
Holy fuck this game is so underrated and overlooked, takes everything that Amnesia had but amps it up to the highest level there is. Frictional games have truly mastered horror with this game, I can’t even copy and paste shit on my computer without thinking about Soma. The atmosphere is great, the horror is superb and the story is fucking amazing. Most of the monsters are cool, the gameplay got a little repetitive and some sections were annoying by the end but nothing that completely ruined it. The visuals were a big upgrade from Amnesia and my god that ending was just a straight up masterpiece, my only gripe with the ending is that I wish the sequence after the credits was just removed in my opinion. Other than that I had a mostly amazing experience, definitely better than Amnesia and deserves more attention.
9/10

pretty fun with friends, haven't played it in years but it's nice that it still gets updates
había olvidado este juego. lo jugué hace un montón y solo diré que nunca había conectado tanto con personajes que no ves y en menos de una hora de gameplay
eso sí del epílogo entendí entre poco y nada

me indigna. alguien puede explicarme por qué los juegos con las mejores ideas, los mensajes más potentes, las emociones más fuertes y las mejores maneras de aprovechar su medio SON SIEMPRE INDIES DE 10 MINUTOS DE DURACIÓN Y 5 EUROS DE PRESUPUESTO??!??
no en serio, me jode. imagínate un juego con estos conceptos pero hecho como triple a y durando aunque sea 10 horas, eso sí sería una barbaridad......
pero bueno. este juego dura 20 minutos y es increíble. me da miedo eso sí jugadlo de todas formas

i felt bad because i immediately had an idea of what was going on because i know it all too well and have experienced it myself and still am experiencing these feelings
el vacio que me dejo este juego,,, solo por el hecho de que se siente incompleto si no le saco todos los finales

Quite possibly the best Metroidvania I've ever played, and I didn't even get into the meta puzzles because I have no friends.

A self-proclaimed "hostile interpretation of the immersive sim", a philosophy which definitely shows. The game relishes in pure RNG and emergent gameplay, making every win feel earned and every loss feel surmountable. The game's bare-bones aesthetic fits its nature nicely and the music is vaguely eerie yet oddly ambient. Overall, the game makes for an interesting puzzle platformer experience, good for cooling off with some low-stakes logic exercises at the end of a long day.

It's crazy how this 2 hour game, that is a second entry into a trilogy of games, feels like a complete, multi-layered, and fully realized standalone sci-fi narrative, that (imo) can rival titans of the genre. And what's even crazier is that according to the dev, this was made in ONE MONTH. I absolutely love indie devs man, I was already super excited for ECHOSTASIS, but right now it is my most anticipated game, I cannot wait to see the conclusion to this trilogy

I was not ready at all for this game, and I'm glad to see a lot of people on here had a similar experience.
Looking at the screenshots it seemed fairly interesting, and it had a cool style. But what I ended up getting was so, so much more substantive and deeper. It honestly floored me.
To start, this is an example of a game with an obvious low budget that actually takes full advantage of it. The cheap and low quality back grounds, the stiff animations, it actually all contributed to creating a really unsettling location and backdrop. I was legit nervous and uncomfortable the entire experience. And mind you, this was all done with zero jumpscares.
The story is just so tragic but also twisted. I didn't expect it to go in the direction it did, but it was welcome and added to the experience.
This is a real hidden gem everyone should give a chance.
