14 Games That Were Unbelievably Good Walking Sims

SOMA

For all intents and purposes, SOMA is a first person survival horror game where you sneak past horrendous machines. However, it’s also a game centered on – you guessed it – mystery as Simon Jarrett finds himself in the underwater lab of PATHOS-II. Without any memory of how he got there or what’s going on, it falls on the player to explore and uncover various aspects of the lab to decide Simon’s fate. If you want play it like a true walking sim, simply turn on Safe Mode which prevents any monsters from killing the player and focuses primarily on the story.
