Communications aboard The Pelican have gone silent. Before disappearing, the crew sent one final message: “It worked.” The Plutus Corporation wants answers.
In this sci-fi horror typing adventure, you are a Remote Proxy Handler. You control human proxies by typing commands from your desk. You decide where they go, what risks they take, and how far you’re willing to push them to complete your task.
Your human proxy won't do anything unless you tell them to. Type to have them move around and search locations. You'll start with a small list of commands to choose from and learn more as you explore your surroundings, gather information and unlock new parts of the ship.
Danger is everywhere aboard The Pelican, and your proxies will get hurt. When progress is blocked, you must decide whether to push them through danger, or try and discover a safer route. You’ll only have twelve proxies at your disposal. Each has different likes and fears that can help or hinder your approach. Make your choices wisely, death is permanent.
A standard data-retrieval job has quickly unravelled. As you command your proxies to explore the ship, you’ll piece together the crew’s collapse through scattered evidence and personal logs. Signs of blackmail, betrayal, and corporate greed surface alongside something stranger - an unfamiliar presence that has found a new home. The deeper you go, the more the ship seems to respond to you.
