Second Sight on PS2 came to mind after reading this. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone talk about it.

As in I wake up as the character or wake up in the same place as them as the character?

Last game I played was Green Hell, so if I wake up in the Amazon, I think I’ll be dead pretty quickly.

If I just wake up as Jake, I should be okay if I didn’t go to sleep with worms, parasites, leeches, poisoned or a bite by a venomous creature.

Sidenote: Is venomed a real word?

That looks familiar to a game I played back in mid 2000’s. The UI looks similar but I think it was white not red. Dark War, or Dark something: War.
