2015 Frictional Games

SOMA
HORROR CENTRALITY
92 /100

SOMA centers fear, dread, and existential horror as core to the player experience. Players largely avoid or outsmart threats rather than engage in combat, and the narrative relies on psychological and existential tension rather than action mechanics. The horror element is fundamental to its identity.
