Scanner Sombre Launching Tomorrow, Might “Make Players Feel Uncomfortable”

Introversion Software’s upcoming title allows players to go deep underground and navigate around cave systems in complete darkness. Sounds strange?

Scanner Sombre will see players navigating a pitch black cave complex deep underground in a first person perspective, with the task to make it back to the surface, but the title takes an abstract, and psychedelic twist by offering the player a LIDAR scanner that will reveal what is amongst the darkness as a collection of dots.

While the title would be a great casual, exploring experience from what it looks like, there is something lurking in the darkness.

“This is a very different experience to Prison Architect. It’s a shorter, but a more involved, claustrophobic game distilling a deep sense of unease into a single play session. It’s probably going to make you feel a bit uncomfortable.” – Mark Morris (Managing Director at Introversion Software)

You can view the launch trailer below, and it’ll be launching on PC tomorrow on the 26th of April 2017.
