It runs with a beautiful colour scheme and the places you visit are intriguing and delightful. The visual design and look of Sea of Solitude on Xbox One is where the heart and soul of the game is. Some may also criticise the actual gameplay which becomes a bit familiar after a while, with little in the way of true variation, but for me it wasn’t important enough to hinder my experience of this amazing journey. Unfortunately, I found the final section among the weakest, mainly as it didn’t surprise me as much as I would have liked certainly not like everything that went before it. The journey is a very pleasant one though, with some great moments of magic, wonder, and innovative gaming. There are some extra little things to take in away from the main story, like shooing away a number of seagulls and finding messages in bottles dotted across the empty cities. Sea of Solitude on Xbox One lasts around 3-4 hours in length, and if I’m honest it could do with being a tad longer. There are boss battles – at least of a sort – which use these tricks, but they aren’t very hard or very complicated to achieve. You might have to find triggers to open a gate in order to make it to the next section, or uncorrupt a piece of light to unlock a pathway. There is a puzzle element included too, but it’s not mind-bending or ever particularly taxing as the focus is always on the journey rather than the challenge of the gameplay. It’s all there and everything is laid bare from the writers and developer, but it is all very well crafted and the material shown is done so in a very sensitive and entertaining way. There is also a deeply upsetting journey to the arctic slopes, with a giant white wolf in tow, that tells the tale of a long and hurtful relationship with a boyfriend.
SEA OF SOLITUDE INITIAL RELEASE DATE FULL
A big climb up a broken skyscraper full of disused office equipment tells the story of her father, his relationship with her mother, and how that unfolds.
Very quickly we discover that these guys represent real humans and relationships in Kay’s life, allowing us to hear and see her story through a bunch of dysfunctional narratives.Ī case of bullying that affected her little brother is told through a story of evil ghostly school children. We soon find ourselves trapped in a half sunken empty city, travelling around and dealing with each monster, learning the story they have to tell on the way. In Sea of Solitude you play the role of Kay, a young woman who appears to us as a red-eyed monster on-board a rowing boat surrounded by a larger red-eyed monster.
