Overview
Samsara is an action RPG that plunges players into the intricate world of Buddhist mythology, drawing heavily from "The Tibetan Book of the Dead." Developed by INFINITY27, this title offers a unique take on the souls-like genre, exploring the concept of the "Bardo" – the intermediate state between death and rebirth. Players find themselves trapped in Kamadhatu, a mysterious and perilous afterlife where death is merely a transition, not an end. The game emphasizes player choice, with consequences that shape the unfolding narrative.
