By Jeff Neuenschwander / August 10th, 2014

Explore the ontological mystery of the Breath of Life.

Deco Digital & Bevel Studios have announced their first game fuelled by the power of Unreal Engine 4, “Pneuma: Breath of Life” coming to Xbox One in January 2015. Be prepared for a first person puzzler that will challenge not only your mind, but your own sense of self.

Pneuma: Breath of Life provides players with an unrivalled sense of awe and a relentless determination to solve every puzzle and progress through a narrated story of self-discovery, exploring the fundamental nature of being. This is the first person puzzler of 2015 which is designed to force players think outside the box and explore beyond what they know as reality through the eyes of a god.

Play as a god, ‘Pneuma’, and listen to his comical self-obsessed inner monologue whilst he takes you on a journey exploring and traversing his puzzling world. Rack your brain and progress through a series of environmental challenges that require perception, observation, and lateral thinking skills to succeed. Lift bridges, rotate platforms and unlock gigantic doors all with the power of your mind. This game isn’t about your skill with a controller, it’s about how you perceive and analyse situations.

Push your brain to its limits in this exciting new first person puzzler as Pneuma contemplates the nature of reality and you explore the ontological mystery of the Breath of Life.

“We’ve been working really hard on Pneuma. We think Pneuma is something special, it’s different, and we truly believe the gaming community is craving a game like this, which is why we’ve put so much work into it to try and deliver the best experience possible and see whether players can overcome some of the seriously challenging puzzles you’ll face in Pneuma”
– Joe Brammer, Producer & Artist at Deco Digital.
