So Many Me takes inspiration from both old and modern classics of the puzzle-platforming genre, ‘So Many Me’ casts players as the lovable green blob, Filo, as he and his seemingly endless army of clones explore a massive world and try to stop the most evil villain their world has ever seen. Only by solving tricky puzzles, navigating treacherous pitfalls, and defeating powerful bosses will the player manage to succeed in their quest!
