Sea of Solitude

Sea of Solitude is a 2019 indie adventure video game developed by Jo-Mei Games and published by Electronic Arts. Played from a third-person perspective, the game follows a young woman named Kay as she navigates a submerged city while confronting monsters that symbolize her feelings of loneliness and mental health struggles. Gameplay combines exploration on foot and by boat with puzzle-solving, platforming, and the use of a flare mechanic to guide progression, alongside optional collectibles. The game was conceived and written by Jo-Mei co-founder Cornelia Geppert, who drew on her personal experiences with depression and loneliness.
