About Inner Mazes - Souls Guides
Carefully crafted puzzles in a challenging turn based 3D platformer take the player on a surrealistic journey through a maze of illusion, ghosts and spiritual guides. In I.M.: Souls Guides, you'll become Lucas, a medium seeking enlightenment through the ways of afro-brazilian traditions. During your journey you'll interact with a few lost souls and entities looking for help and willing to help you in return.
There are four entities you'll learn to incorporate to solve the puzzle. However, don't misuse them as you are the medium channeling their energy and they will need your energy to keep acting after their energy is drained. As you walk through the levels and find hidden items and/or levels, you'll have access to some real information regarding these entities (not yet implemented).
Lucas - the protagonist. He is a born medium but only recently he started his active development. He is in a constant journey for spirituality and knowledge. His energy bar is your health, if it is over you died.
Exu - He is the first spiritual guide to be in contact with Lucas. He is linked to knowledge and the material world. His traits are of being well tempered and having the ability to traverse the most dark places with a loud laugh. He recover his energy with sugarcane liquor. Exu can open hidden paths and walk through flames.
Pombagira - She is also known to have bonds with prosperity and the material world as well as Exu. However, her vibration reverbs with the femine. She also traverse the darkness with a laugh. Pombagira can destoy obstacles and walk through flames. She can recover her energy with wine cups.
Erê (child spirit) - Erê is an entity with many traits of children behaviour that has chosen a specific spiritual evolution towards purity and innocence. He is always in a rush and never walk, which means that he always move two tiles at once, jump over gaps or small obstacles. He is also the only character capable of skip a turn by playing. He gather his energy with candies.
Preto Velho - Preto Velho is the spirit of an old black man that was alive during slavery. He is very wise and holds the knowledge of many mysteries and fundamentals to the healing art and spiritual enlightenment. He can walk over water and also regenerate health. He can recover energy with coffee.

I love this game. It's a very interesting puzzle game. It introduces te characters and techniques of the game well and increases in difficulty quickly. It really isn't easy.

I hope it gets workshop support so we can create our own levels.20 found this helpful
Inner Mazes - Souls Guides is a 3D rendered Sokoban ripoff with a few gimmicks... but wait, you say, the developer says this is a platformer! Well, they lied. To mislead gamers, or because they don't know what a platformer is? Who knows. This is Sokoban. You push blocks around and move around carefully onto safe squares to progress through each square grid path level. The gimmick is that you switch between various characters who have various abilities like pushing blocks, deleting blocks, skipping over squares, etc. No actual platforming involved. Now that we've cleared up that bit of deception from the developer, what do you actually get if you buy this? Not a finished game, that's for sure. The game was abandoned roughly 6 months after launch and hasn't been updated in 6 years. It blew past the developers commitment to complete the game without any notification or admission of failure from the developer. The game will never be completed. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the mid …6 found this helpful
