Our take on REalM: Walk of Soul
The no-combat design puts the emphasis on puzzles and exploration, but gives up direct fighting as a way to respond to danger. Progress also depends on solving enigmas to reach new areas, so the journey is shaped by puzzle-solving rather than combat encounters.
What is REalM: Walk of Soul?
Iris wakes in a nightmarish world and must explore its strange surroundings to find a way home.
This 2D puzzle adventure follows a non-linear journey through bizarre creatures and unsettling mysteries. Solving puzzles opens new areas and reveals Iris’s story. She cannot fight, so survival depends on other means. The game centers on exploration and challenging enigmas, with little dialogue and a haunting soundscape.
