An
adventure game where you play, well, you play yourself. Your soul has been pulled into another world --
Omikron, where you have to fight the
demon Astaroth. In the
storyline, the
game is actually a
device used by
Astaroth to capture people's
souls, and you won't have your soul back until you finish the game. The graphics are pretty stunning ... high-end
3D Polygon rendering. Within thin There are about 6 different
cities to visit, each with a different feel. When you
die, you don't really
die, you just "jump" to the next person who
touches you -- hence you are a
nomad soul. You later also learn to transfer yourself to
others without dying. Each
person has different skills and
abilities, so you may want to transfer, for instance, to make use of an
academic's intelligence.
The voice acting is crappy, but the soundtrack is very good, and David Bowie features in the storyline and as a musician ... you can see a virtual performance by him in the game, and it's not just a gimmick.
