    Oyunu steam üzerinden satın almıştım. Oyunun atmosferi aşırı gerici hikayesi ve bossları aşırı tüyler ürpertici oyun içi diyaloglar oyunun hikayesinin %70 ini veriyor geri kalan kısmı öğrenmek için baya bi etraftaki itemlere dikkat etmeniz gerek oyunun final bölümünü anlamak baya uzun sürüyor

    Soma successfully become one of my favorite pc game. I started playing without knowing much about the story and some plot twist were really nice to experience... even if we saw them in some other story or movie, here we live them in fist person and it makes us fell different.

    I loved the art and the poetry of the game. The atmosphere remembers Bioshok very much and alternates moments of adrenaline with nice moments of exploration. You will feel alone most of the time but the research and the encounters with the others survivors will motivate you, (I found the company of their voices a nice relief too).

    The graphic is really nice if you don't look for the latest feature of technology. The story, the gameplay and the art style are really good. About the horror part, the game is scary, but not too much and not the whole time and this is also positive for me.    … Expand

    Хорошее погружение не только на дно но и в саму эту атмосферу безнадежности где только ты и заброшенные водные базы.

    SOMA really surprised me, I started playing thinking like "ok this is going to be an AI horror game, nice" but it's so much more than that. It is not the scariest game in terms of jumpscares and chases (and it doesn't need to, honeslty), but it has a scary plot, and that's where the game is the strongest. It's a game that I finnished some time ago but still think about it's narrative aSOMA really surprised me, I started playing thinking like "ok this is going to be an AI horror game, nice" but it's so much more than that.

    Um dos melhores jogos de terror em primeira pessoa, você acorda em uma nave no espaço sem nenhum contexto, você deve explorar essa nave cheia de perigos e mistérios em torno dos acontecimentos do cenário. Com narrativa profunda e terror de deixar marmanjo de cueca molhada.
    Nota Final: 9,0

    Good. Story very good. Scary very much. Only downside - sometimes avoiding enemy is annoying.

    Frictional Games can make games, Amnesia, Penumbra are really great titles, and now Soma, great job. The plot is very interesting and thanks to it the game is really addictive, and the ending makes you think about every choice you made during the game.

The sound as well, ambient noises or the monstrous screams of a creature called Proxy are very well realized. The gameplay is simple, however, this game cannot be called a walking simulator, we solve a lot of puzzles here or hide from opponents, it is not the most mechanically complex horror game, but it does not interfere with the fun. I recommend checking it out to every horror lover, he shouldn't be disappointed.

    Mimo tego, że nienawidzę horrorów (zwłaszcza takich) to wzbudziła moje zainteresowanie. Mocno wczułem się w historię głównego bohatera oraz towarzyszki. Stylistycznie gra była bardzo klimatyczna. Brak walki poniekąd uspokoił mnie, ponieważ dało mi to znak, że nie będę musiał się konfrontować z przeciwnikami. Skradanie sprawiło u mnie duży stres, już nie wspominając o robieniu hałasu.Mimo tego, że nienawidzę horrorów (zwłaszcza takich) to wzbudziła moje zainteresowanie.

    This game is nothing short of perfection. In as few words as possible I'm going to just say that it's a very claustrophobic, mysterious thriller with an ending so good that you have to re-evaluate your entire self.

    As with any thoughtful storytelling, Soma works on multiple levels.

    SOMA is not the horror game I expected out of Frictional, but I don’t care and it doesn’t matter. This is an excellent work of science fiction, not necessarily unique but uniquely told through its skillful use of video game conceits. It’s System Shock 2 for a modern sensibility, BioShock freed of its AAA chains. It’s damn good and, for my money, the most cohesive and ambitious game Frictional’s made so far.

    I parted with Soma with the same feeling that came over me while I was watching “Matrix”, “Interstellar” or “Inception”. Once again someone came up with something no one thought of before and took me for an amazing ride into the unknown. [12/2015, p.40]
