The views expressed are not necessarily those held by DC Comics and Warner Media. Though engaging gameplay and meaningful messaging aren’t mutually exclusive in games, Sea of Solitude is squarely one of a growing number of titles that challenges the notion that “fun and entertainment” should be a game’s main priority in every case.Son of El is written and produced by Isaac Bluefoot. It felt almost crass to do so, like being allowed to read a relative’s diary, only to give it a thumbs-up or -down. The game is approximately 4-6 hours long and spans 12 Chapters. Sea of Solitude stands out as heartfelt, almost painfully sincere, so much so that I hesitated to actually put a score on this review at all. IGN's Sea of Solitude complete strategy guide and walkthrough will lead you through every step of Sea of Solitude from the title screen to the final credits, including every collectible location and more.
Despite the presence of some collectibles, it’s not the type of game to stick with beyond the credits reel. Jos Arcadio Segundo, taken for dead, is thrown onto the train as well, but he manages to jump. It’s hardly a chore to play thanks to fairly refined (if simplistic) puzzle-platformer gimmicks, but they alone won’t save Sea of Solitude for a player that’s not interested in the narrative,or one that’s looking for extensive replayability. The corpses are collected onto a train and dumped into the sea. If anything might qualify as something of a letdown with Sea of Solitude, it’s that the game’s overall mechanics don’t really deepen or evolve too much over its four-hour-plus runtime. For some, these messages Sea of Solitude practically yells at their face as they play might be just what they need to hear, unfiltered by the abstractions and hinting nature of some of its contemporaries. This might be a turn-off for more players seeking more sophistication, but for me, the dialog and cutscenes came across as striking for their lack of pretense, their willingness to up and just say their piece a refreshing reminder that there’s space in the medium for a game that puts it out there, simply and bluntly. Somewhat less serene is the writing, which is straightforward enough in its messages as to be practically blunt, leaving no room for interpretation as to what Sea of Solitude and its developers have to say. As you are progressing, you will unlock new checkpoints and chapters. The sea, of course, and the way the environs swing wildly from dark and foreboding to a beautifully rendered pleasantness that rivals the best output of Zelda series. Sea of Solitude takes you on a personal journey of a young womans loneliness.
#SEA OF SOLITUDE CHAPTERS CRACKED#
A majestic creature wearing a mask of ice, cracked to reveal something darker underneath. A reptilian creature with a maternal expression, covered in furry black tentacles. Virtually every image in the game can be picked at for underlying meanings. Self-loathing, marital strife, bullying, suicidal leanings, estrangement and more rise front and center, as the game’s chapters arrange themselves around the turmoils of both Kay and the people close to her. The game doesn’t play coy with its themes of isolation, loneliness, and the troubles it can bring.
