An adventure logic puzzle FPP game created by Wales Interactive, and a spiritual successor to Master Reboot. The story of Soul Axiom takes place in the far future, when death is no longer a problem and people are mass-ing their souls into a server called Elysia, where all their fantasies and dreams come true.
Soul Axiom for PC, PS4 and etc. is a logic puzzle adventure FPP game. It was created by Wales Interactive, the developers of such titles as Infinity Runner.
The story of Soul Axiom takes place in the future. People are-mass-ing their souls to a server called Elysia—one of humanity's greatest inventions. Thanks to Elysia, death is no longer a problem, and the server can fulfil the fantasies and dreams of every soul within it. However, something went wrong during the process of the soul of the game's protagonist, and when he arrives on the other side, he doesn't know absolutely anything—neither who he is nor how he ended up there. Your task is to discover his story, step by step.
The mechanics of Soul Axiom for PC, PS4 and etc. are focused on two elements: exploration of the world and solving logic puzzle. Since the setting is a digital world with no boundaries, the locations can be quite surreal—from an odd glowing forest, through temples, to a futuristic place resembling those from the movie Tron. The game features 40 maps in total and over 100 puzzles, mostly based on the correct application of the laws of physics and manipulating the environment. Moreover, during the game you gain various abilities, which come in handy in later stages, and your actions have an impact on the story's ending. The whole playthrough takes over 20 hours to complete.
Soul Axiom for PC, PS4 and etc. features distinctive, attractive visuals and rich soundtack, consisting of fifty tracks that fit the mood perfectly.

GameSpew: 5 / 10 by Richard Seagrave
There's around 20-30 hours' worth of content on offer, but the lengthy load times and boring puzzles make it feel like such a slog that after 10 or so your interest wanes
We Got This Covered: 2.5 / 5 by Eric Hall
Certain sections of Soul Axiom are as memorable as Wales Interactive would like them to be. Unfortunately, however, these moments are buried under a lacklustre and confusing storyline and simplistically dull puzzles.
ZTGD: 5.5 / 10 by Drew Leachman
Soul Axiom has some really interesting parts, but its whole is still something left to be desired.
