The Simulation is an upcoming horror game by Playmestudio, an indie developer based in Chile known for its prior release, The Signifier. The latter delves deep into the twists and turns of the human mind, as players seek to unravel the truth of events surrounding a mysterious death. While The Signifier was not billed as a horror game, many fans thought it should be, and that's translating into The Simulation. The upcoming title sets the stage for its horror scenario by putting players in the shoes of a retired game designer involved in a police investigation. Of course, given the game was only recently announced at Summer Game Fest, a lot about The Simulation's story and mechanics remains shrouded in mystery.
