Signalis (Mac) 

Signalis on Mac

Signalis, (also written as SIGNALIS) is a survival horror game with action-adventure elements. The game revolves around a totalitarian government, known as the Nation, that rules over most of the solar system. To manage its many colonies, the Nation uses a cybernetic workforce composed of two classes, known as Gestalt (in charge of administration and leadership) and Replika (responsible for manual labor).

Players control Elster (LSTR), a technician Replika, that is searching for her lost Gestalt partner after the shuttle they were aboard crashes. She enters a mining complex and discovers that most of the workers have gone mad. That forces her to traverse through dangerous locations in order to find out what happened.

The game is a futuristic take on the survival horror genre. The player must solve a cosmic mystery, scavenge through a secret government facility, and try to avoid terrifying creatures. The core gameplay has third-person shooter elements with some puzzle components sprinkled in. The difficulty of the play is increased by resource management factors.

Players can feel the chill of horror as they carefully manage limited supplies, get lost in the halls of a derelict spaceship, investigate the fate of the inhabitants who lived there, and look for answers.

The game can be praised for its dim atmosphere, its cinematic sci-fi anime storytelling, its fully animated 3D characters, its dynamic lighting and shadows, and its complex transparency effects.
