Currently our goal is to refine the campaign progression mechanics.
Players will earn research points after each mission to unlock new weapons, weapon modifications and psychic powers in the research trees.

Somnus is definitely inspired by the Alien movies, and the next one is coming out soon. Anybody looking forward to it? Which Alien movie did you like best? :)

She is a mysterious character you will meet in the story of Somnus. Unable to see or speak, she communicates in other, deeper than normal ways. Unfortunately her closeness to the alien scourge network make her a dangerous and unpredictable ally.

We reached a big milestone this week. Finally we have 22 missions ready, which will compose the campaign for Somnus. Each mission is unique with own objectives and mechanics and they are thoroughly playtested for different player counts. This took us almost 4 years to complete.
Creating alien designs for Somnus is one of the most enjoyable parts working on the game.
What are your favourite movies or books with aliens? :)

Somnus now has more than 500 playtests with over 80 individual gamers and other designers. Thank you so much for helping us shape Somnus into a great cooperative sci-fi-fantasy game. If anyone is interested to play a round let us know.

For our prototype a mix of homemade and professionally printed materials were used. @thegamecrafter did an excellent job printing the cards and tokens in vibrant colors and sharp details. We'll work on minis this summer and use Zombicide: Invader and Warhammer 40k minis for now.
New mission is in the works. The game will have 20+ unique missions, each with new mechanics and objectives, to keep your experience fresh each time you play. We currently work on the last few of them, almost there!! :)

Somnus is Latin for sleep.
The characters you play in the story are called sleepers. When they connect to the scourge network, they experience a trance-like sleep and psychically control a shell, while losing integrity with their human identity.

Swarm aliens are the most common threat in Somnus. Alone a swarm bug poses little danger, but if they eat enough biomass they will reproduce and become more of a serious problem, they might even evolve into a dangerous elite alien.
Which bugs creep you out the most?

In playtests I am always very curious to see in which ways players design their shells. There are so many possibilities...
Here is a short clip on how you transmorph your shell when playing Somnus.

An important piece of Somnus is creative customization options. Combine your character with one of seven different shells. Here is an example.

Somnus is now in its 4th year of development. We are focused on finalizing the last missions and balancing the difficulty for all player counts. This summer, weāll work with a 3D artist on creating miniatures.
Whatās your favorite miniature board game?
