Waking on Steam

An immensely personal game, Waking sees players delve into their own memories, experiences, fears, and desires to overcome being locked in the all-encompassing darkness of a coma. With real-world guided meditations, third-person exploration, and intense combat, Jason Oda’s ambitious introspective adventure is wholly unique, and driven by the desire for players to look within themselves.

“Five years ago I started on a long journey to make a game about life, the people we love, and the memories that we cherish most. Today, I am happy to share a game about you, me, and the lives we all live.” said Jason Oda, developer of Waking.
