Our take on System of Souls
Its focus on enclosed trials and logical challenges gives the game a directed structure, but leaves less room for open-ended exploration or varied gameplay systems outside the laboratory setting.
What is System of Souls?
System of Souls combines puzzle solving with first-person platforming.
Players control L-064N, a robotic body occupant who wakes inside the ION laboratory without memories. An artificial intelligence named Aura creates trials that explore aspects of his former identity, including ideas, personality, and feelings. Progress involves investigating the facility, solving logical challenges, developing or improving abilities, and finding clues about ION's activities. The game presents a science-fiction setting in 2155, when environmental conditions have made life on Earth unsustainable and humans transfer their souls into robotic bodies. Its trials take place across atmospheric rooms in the ION complex, with difficulty increasing as the puzzles continue.
