A science fiction survival sandbox game that combines arcade elements with numerous logic puzzles. It was developed by Teotl, a Swedish studio known for such productions as Unmechanical or The Ball. The story of The Souls Project is set in the world of the latter game, although the action takes place in the distant future where the Earth is at the verge of an ecological disaster.
The Solus Project for PC, PS4 and XONE is a science-fiction survival sandbox. It was developed by Teotl, a Swedish studio that created a logic game entitled Unmechanical, a puzzle-filled platformer production.
The story of The Solus Project is set the world of the aforementioned The Ball, although the action takes place in a distant future, when Earth is at the verge of an ecological disaster. The humanity desperately searches for new worlds to colonize, and we assume the role of a member of an exploration team. After twenty years of space journey, we reach our destination, but the landing ends with a crash as a result of which the entire crew, save for the protagonist, die. What is worse, most of the equipment is damaged, including the communication devices. Therefore, we are completely alone and entirely on our own.
Contrary to typical survival sandboxes, The Solus Project for PC, PS4 and XONE offers an extensive story. The planet hides numerous secrets, and it quickly turns out that we are not the first person to ever set foot on its surface. Our task is to establish communication and call for help.
The action is observed from the first-person perspective. The uncharted world has an atmosphere capable of sustaining human life as well as large fresh water reservoirs, but it is far from paradise. Most of its surface is covered with desert and rocks. During daytime, the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius and then drops below minus 35 degrees at night. Survival is made difficult by regular thunderstorms, tornadoes, volcano eruptions, hurricanes, and sudden ebbs and flows at seas.
Exploration is important. We may find lots of mysterious structures on the planet’s surface and will spend much time on investigating vast caves. The game puts logic challenges in our way on a regular basis. They require a cunning environment manipulation to be beaten.
All of the above is presented within attractive graphics powered by Unreal Engine 4. The Solus Project s Oculus Rift. Moreover, the game offers powerful modding tools that allow the fans to easily add new locations and quest to the game world.

COGconnected: 85 / 100 by Lou Sytsma
You really feel like a solitary stranger in a strange land. This one has tons of atmosphere.
FingerGuns: 6 / 10 by Paul Collett
The Solus Project is definitely a game to stick with, The longer you're in it, the more you will get out of it, it's similar in vein to VR's other explore-em-up Robinson the Journey. However, even though there are no giant dinosaurs to gawp at the story and the imagination this world conjures up make this a better game, in my opinion. I just wish I wasn't bogged down having to manage the very things that keep you alive.
PlayStation LifeStyle: 5.5 / 10 by Chandler Wood
From a conceptual standpoint, The Solus Project is fascinating. The sense of scale is amplified in VR, especially the fantastic skyboxes that cycle between day and night, massive planets in rotation around you, and the ferocity of the elements. That feeling of being stranded in an alien landscape, needing to survive, and needing to explore to complete your mission are a heavy weight from the drop. Where The Solus Project fails is in gameplay mechanics and puzzle psychology. Overly ambiguous controls and solutions meant that most of my playtime was a campaign of frustration and overcoming meaningless obstacles. The Solus Project is a game that I wanted to like, but every time it did something redeeming, I could be certain that another gameplay frustration was just around the corner.
