Torontonian gets brain scan, becomes last hope for mankind. Soma is a horrific first-person adventure which relies more on its impressive setting and powerful story than jump scares or constant hiding to convey a sense of solitude and urgency. Like Amnesia: The Dark Descent, the game is open for modding from the get-go.
