We are incredibly excited to share that the official Steam page for Somnium: Awaken is now live! This is a massive step for us at Aerift Games, and we can’t wait to start building our community right where the action happens.
What is Somnium: Awaken?
Somnium: Awaken is a psychological horror and mystery game that drops you into a strange, silent underground facility. You wake up with no memory of how you got there, but the atmosphere tells you one thing for certain: something went very, very wrong.
As you find the courage to explore, you’ll have to piece together the truth from personal logs and emails left behind by those who came before you. But you aren’t just a passive observer. To survive, you’ll need to:
- Interact with Everything: We’ve built a physics-based interaction system that lets you move and use almost anything in the environment. Use the world to your benefit. Whether it’s to reach a new area or to defend yourself.
- Solve the Mystery: The facility is a giant puzzle. You’ll need to figure out how to bring systems back online and unlock new sectors to find your way out.
- Face the Shadows: You aren’t alone. Danger lurks in the dark, and you’ll need to find the specific weaknesses of each threat. Use your wits and the environment to outsmart the horrors that stand in your way.
A Work in Progress
While the Steam page is a big milestone, please keep in mind that this is not the final version of the game. We are working hard every day to polish the experience, improve the visuals, and make sure the atmosphere is as chilling as possible. The screenshots you see now are just a glimpse of what’s to come!
What’s Next?
Now that the page is up, our next big focus is the Official Announcement Trailer. We want to give you a real look at the gameplay and the tension we’ve been building behind the scenes. Stay tuned for that.
In the meantime, the best way to support us is to head over to Steam and Add to Wishlist! It helps us more than you can imagine by letting Steam know that people are excited about our project. If you want you can also follow us on our various socials.
