About the Game

You are an inter-planetary survey engineer, stranded on a desolate orbital outpost in deep space, fighting to survive a mission devastated by catastrophic failures: the horrific death of your sole crew mate, life-threatening system malfunctions, and the total loss of communication to Earth.

Cut off from all human contact, with only the station’s omni-present AI for company, you begin to experience inexplicable, terrifying encounters that are somehow tied to your own tormented past.

Now you have no choice but to face the terrors alone.

DRIFT is a hard sci-fi, psychological horror story set in a far-future, post-AGI world. Humanity has colonized the stars; AI systems, harnessed and bound by humans, have ushered in advanced, post-scarcity technology and autonomous machines.

But colonizing new worlds involves probing hitherto unexplored systems in uncharted space.

You never know what you might find.

Explore the labyrinthine expanse of the OSS Anvesha; execute grueling mission objectives, make harrowing choices, grapple with your own treacherous senses as you investigate the dark depths of the station to solve its terrifying mysteries.

Experience the lethal fallout of an interstellar mission gone terribly wrong; brave the horrors that stalk the shadowy halls of the station. How far will you go to unearth the truth and survive the dark forces that seek to destroy you?

Features:

  • First-person sci-fi horror adventure

  • A terrifyingly realized world: Explore a highly-detailed, desolate space station. Restore its failing systems to stave off catastrophe as you fight to preserve your sanity.

  • A thrilling narrative-driven experience: Piece together a compelling story as you delve into the darkness at the heart of the station.

  • A hard sci-fi setting: Set over a century in the future, in a post-AGI, post-scarcity universe where the technology sustaining human life breeds absolute reliance on AI.
