About the Game

Immerse yourself in Star Trek narrative survival

You’re a Vulcan Starfleet officer, sent on a special mission aboard the U.S.S. Lumen, but something has gone horribly wrong.

There’s no crew in sight, and an unknown entity has infested the ship. Now it’s inside your body, physically mutating you, unlocking dangerous new abilities at the cost of your sanity.

Explore The U.S.S. Lumen

Withstand or embrace the infection inside you.
Confront the darkness within the ship… and your mind.

Tend to your VR body

Inhabit a full-body avatar. Use your Medical Tricorder to track your condition, treating your infection with a Hypospray, or embracing its mutations.

Meld with dangerous DNA

Manage or exploit your mutation’s side effects to unlock powerful but unstable abilities.

Face Horrors in your mind

You’re a Vulcan. Rational, disciplined, in control. But your sanity and resolve are faltering. Something aboard is learning your fears and using them against you.

Master Your Starfleet Gear

Face threats with your Phaser, stealth, or Vulcan nerve pinch. Your Tricorder is your ultimate survival hub - track your health, manage access keys, and uncover the ship's secrets.

Get your hands dirty

Use your VR hands to interact with the ship, crafting tools and weapons essential for survival.
