Gameplay
Signalis offers a basic gameplay experience. is reminiscence of the original classic survival games like quiet hill or resident evil. It is a top down view, pixel, art, survival shooter that has limited melee capabilities and the limited amount of items that can be used to explore the world.

It's a science fiction only narrative game for one player with a storyline that drives the drama to life with a variety of melee weapons with weak ranges, forcing the combat fight to take place at weapons length like pistols and shotguns.

It is made up of interconnected rooms where you search and find keys or items that help solve the puzzles by joining items into safe spaces that let you have the tools you require in order to survive.

There are enemies who are pushed when you aren't armed with the pistols, or shotguns found all over the world of games while trying to comprehend what and why you are doing what you're doing in this mysterious planet.

The game is initially straightforward and easy, however, you'll discover that the difficulty rises dramatically in the course of the game at times, to the point of exhaustion, with enemies that will return to life as they emerge from vents and floors, plus simple, straightforward, and thrilling boss fights in a claustrophobic environment.

I'd say it's not the game's fault However, if you make progress in the game considerably in the course of two or three hours in and then stop for a few days coming back can be hard since the game doesn't give you a list of what you are supposed to do next and due to the map being a little hard to understand novice players may be put off initially However, use guides and exercise your brain muscles. Trust me the pain is worth it.

The variety of the enemy isn't as great for me however, it was created by two individuals, so I forgive that easily because what's there is for the most part simple, classical and efficient use of games that are designed to be survival horror.

Story
The game's story takes place in a dystopian future presented in a way that forces you to consider the story's ending and the meaning and the meaning behind the story rather than just complete the game, and get explained what the story is about. You are meant to ponder it.
