THE FUSE

When I was playing Saros for review, I had a few conversations with other folks who were playing the game pre-release as we collectively tried to untangle the many dangling narrative threads of Housemarque’s latest roguelike shooter/psychological mystery. Though it’s not quite as abstract as Returnal, it does have a lot of mythology and character relationships that lend themselves to multiple and varied interpretations, and among the reviewers I spoke to, there was one prevailing theory that added layers to protagonist Arjun’s internal struggles. Now, however, actor Rahul Kohli has weighed in on this interpretation in a way that kinda makes me wish I could put the genie back in the bottle.
