About the Game

In the near future, humanity is steadily expanding into the depths of space. You are an astronaut on a routine but important mission: follow a designated route to a remote station and deliver technical data.


Along the way, command contacts you with an additional request — retrieve documents from the research vessel "Echo-7", which recently went silent. The silence is attributed to a recent geomagnetic storm disrupting communications.

As you approach Echo-7, you attempt to contact the crew — but there’s no response. The ship appears functional from the outside. Inside — nothing.

No welcoming party, no signs of life. Just empty corridors, scattered personal belongings, and the unsettling feeling that you're not alone.
