Enter a self-overlapping VR maze as the explorer in this indie casual adventure, navigating freely to locate a diamond while friends outside VR guide you. The core mechanic of self-overlapping architectures lets you walk through a vast space within a compact 2.5m x 2.5m play area, skipping teleportation entirely. Local multiplayer splits roles sharply: explorers don VR headsets and roam, while navigators check a side-screen map to issue directions and test their skills. Friends collaborate in real-time decisions, turning the maze into a shared challenge of guidance and exploration. This low-budget social VR experiment suits groups craving asymmetric play without big setups. Casual adventurers and VR walkers ready for tight teamwork will find it engaging.

Sömmad gets you on an adventure in a self-overlapping VR maze to find a diamond with help of your friends outside VR. In this local multiplayer, walk freely in a large VR maze, make decisions with friends, and challenge your guiding skills using a mazy map!

The maze and map in the game are built with a core mechanic of “self-overlapping architectures”, which allows users to freely walk and explore the large VR maze without any teleportation required! This freedom to walk makes it easy to forget that the play area is bound to only a small 2.5m x 2.5m space. For an even greater, engaging experience, the game asymmetrically includes all friends outside VR and challenges them to direct the person in VR using a map of the maze.

The game was designed and created as an experiment of VR self-overlapping architectures and local low-budget social VR. It has been played by visitors at Aalborg’s main library that greatly enjoyed it, and therefore we wanted to share this experience with the rest of the world on Steam.
