Soma Bringer is an action role-playing game developed by Monolith Soft and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS handheld video game console. The player, controlling one of the eight main characters, explores dungeons and fights enemies in real-time combat across three-dimensional plains from a top-down perspective. Multiplayer functions allow up to three players to participate in exploration and combat. The story focuses on the continent of Barnea: the principle magical energy, Soma, is being disrupted by the arrival of monsters called Visitors, prompting a military group called Pharzuph Division 7 to defeat the Visitors and restore the balance of Soma.
