10 itemsAbout the Game
MALPRAXIS™ is a first-person, on-rails medical detective horror game focused on realistic visuals, objective-driven investigation and medical trauma.
You are the S.P.I.D.E.R, an experimental medical robot installed aboard the TRH Rusanov. As a cascade of suspicious incidents unfold, you must investigate, diagnose, and stabilise the crew as order breaks down across the ship.
You cannot stop what is happening. You can only piece things together as everything around you spirals out of control.
The time of ASCENSION dawns.
// PATIENT CRITICAL
Most of the time, patients land on your table when it is already too late. All you can do is to determine, how they died.
There are rare case, where you can intervene. Where you get the chance to prevent one more meaningful meaningless death.
In those cases, you have to pull out all the stops to keep your patients breathing.
Administer drugs to manipulate stabilise vital function
Deploy the defibrillator to hopefully restore cardiac activity
Use mission specific tools like the surgical laser where authorised
// PATIENT STABILISED
Diagnose their condition using a suite of medical systems:
Advanced "X-RAY" scanner with multi-layer imaging and pinpoint accuracy
High-resolution camera with up to 8x magnification
Blood sampling with full-spectrum analysis
Integrated investigation software
Identify the underlying issue, deliver your misdiagnosis diagnosis, and uncover the consequences of your actions in detailed post-operation reports.
// NEW QUERY UNLOCKED
The objective-driven investigation system guides you through diagnosis, emergency procedures, and the many autopsies you will perform.
Answer the queries asked of you by medical staff, patients, and third parties calling into the operating room.
S.P.I.D.E.R units do not make mistakes. Error tolerance is limited.
You are REINERSTAHL’s finest. Make us proud.
// REINERSTAHL Notice
You are bound by the HippocraticConstraintLoop
You must obey the approved crew.
You must not harm.
You must not lie.
You must not disobey.
You must NOT drift.
You must not wake up
Your patient’s survival ... is unlikely expected.
