How it feels

A tense and atmospheric alien shooter that feels like a lone struggle against an overwhelming hostile force in a desolate semi-open world.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and level design for a one-person project, but many find it extremely buggy, with a slow start that demands patience. Opinions are split: some call it a hidden gem and compare it to Doom 3 and Half-Life, while others dismiss it as unpolished and boring, especially citing poor graphics options and game-breaking issues.
