About the Game

In the shadow of Jupiter’s moon Europa, you’re reassigned to a top-secret research facility aboard the Proxima, a lunar orbital station built by the mega-corporation Artemis to study the moon. Your new assignment hides a deadly secret: humanity’s first alien discoveries from a classified mission into Europa’s icy oceans.

When Subject 11 – the reality-defying, matter-mutating lifeform you study alongside your robot assistant Huxley – breaks containment, the station spirals into chaos. As the sole survivors, you and Huxley must navigate the ruined, warped facility, using combat, stealth, and puzzles to survive and escape. Along the way, uncover Artemis’ dark secrets, the fate of your crew, and the haunting truths of what it means to be human.

Key Features:

  • Survive the outbreak
    Navigate a top-secret research station overrun by alien horrors. Scavenge scarce resources, fight mutated threats, or sneak past dangers as you struggle to survive.

  • Immersive, interactive world
    Explore a fully interactive, physics-driven environment. Hack computers, manipulate objects, and uncover hidden secrets across the ruined facility.

  • Memorable characters
    Meet Huxley, your curious robotic companion, and uncover the lives of fellow Proxima crew and staff through encounters, logs, and discoveries. Learn who they were, the choices they made, and the fates they meet.

  • Non-linear problem solving
    Combat, stealth, and puzzle-solving all play a role in your survival. Approach each scenario your way, using the environment, tools, and wits to overcome obstacles.

  • Uncover humanity, and mystery
    Piece together the fate of your crew, the secrets of Artemis, and the true nature of Subject 11. Your discoveries reveal dark truths about ambition, humanity, and evolution.
