Surreal Side-Scroller: Ego In A Coma Review
Ego In A Coma (自我、状態、昏睡。) by KoS Studios is a free-to-play action game that immerses players in a dark and mature side-scrolling experience. Explore the psyche of the protagonist, the One of Insomnia, as she battles inexplicable creatures within her mind after being induced into a coma by a powerful sleeping pill. With 2D visuals reminiscent of retro games, Ego In A Coma offers challenging gameplay and multiple endings, all set within a surreal world that delves into themes of violence and abuse.
This unique game takes players through five stages, each with distinct themes ranging from cyberpunk to psychedelic, while incorporating references to art, literature, and religion. Despite its retro aesthetics, Ego In A Coma pushes boundaries with sensitive materials like flashing lights, religious iconography, and nudity, providing a thought-provoking and immersive gameplay experience.
