You are a clone. A defective, artificially engineered bio-agent dispatched to Earth hundreds of years later to locate the source of a mysterious signal—and with it, the secret of reproduction. In these underground bunkers, trust no one. Mimics can copy any member of your crew, and terrifying creatures could be lurking behind every single door. You must feed the Maw so it lets you descend deeper, closer to the signal. Fail to feed it, and the Ark will write you off as bio-trash, replacing you with newer, more promising clones. You have no room for error.

Procedural Generation & Random Events: Every descent is a brand-new nightmare. Gear up and head down for loot, but you’ll never know what’s waiting for you below.
Proximity Voice Chat & Mimics: Threats can imitate even your own voice. Trust absolutely no one, and never turn your back on your teammates-they might strike when you least expect it.
Uncover the Secrets of Project "Eve": Discover who sent the mysterious signal to the cosmic Ark, humanity's last stronghold. Unravel what truly happened to Earth, and learn who created the Maw in the first place.
Solve clever puzzles and expand your base at the crafting station. Upgrade your spider-bot courier and craft the ultimate strategy for high-speed floor sweeps. But above all-if you miss the elevator, you're dead. Good luck.
