Spike Chunsoft shared new information on AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES – nirvanA Initiativeaccompanied by a series of images, which introduce three new characters and illustrate the new mechanics of the Somnium.
The gameplay of the title is divided into two distinct phases: “Investigation” And “Somnium“. The first takes place in the real world and consists of examining the crime scene and listening to witnesses. In the “Somnium“Instead, the players will be called to enter the dream world of suspects and witnesses where, with a time limit of six minutes, they will be able to search for new clues thanks to the help of human forms of Aiba And Tama.
In this new chapter of The Somnium Filesi Somnia (this is the name of the sections “Somnium“), Inspired by the psyche of the individuals investigated, will present new forms, including aerial and marine ones. These gameplay phases will consist of multiple levels, each with its own “mental block”: depending on how we solve these blocks, the story could take unexpected turns. To solve the puzzles, players will have to examine and interact with various objects, bearing in mind, however, that each interaction will pass time. By remaining still, however, the minutes will pass more slowly. Exploring carefully, players will eventually locate the “Keys”, which will allow us to solve the blocks and advance into the Somnium. However, it will be necessary to pay attention to the “conscious antibodies”, which represent the state of alert of the subject under investigation: if touched, they will significantly reduce the time available to the players.
Here are the profiles of the three new characters shared by Spike Chunsoft.
