Play as Josh, a teenage boy tormented by a crippling form of social anxiety and navigate his journey to reconcile a maze of two contrasting worlds, coexisting within the blank spaces of each other - his perception of reality and the world he created to avoid his fears. Josh exists in his own world as alter egos, Caleb and Ammiel. Caleb lives in the light, white world and wants to overcome his fears. For him, black is solid and white is hollow. With Ammiel, it is the opposite. Ammiel is representative of Joshs inner, reclusive self where he wants to be lonely and where feeling safe is to escape totally from human contact. They cannot exist simultaneously. Both worlds depict dangers that the player must overcome, and an inner monologue written across Syms abstract spaces serves to illuminate the anguish the character endures. In Sym, every tile has a meaning: they behave as logic gates, changing colour depending on nearby tiles. Flip between the realms of light and dark to solve problems and journey through them. Learn to utilize both distinct spaces to avoid obstacles and find a path to safety.
