Sub-Species

At first the alien outbreak spreading throughout the oceans was confined. We delayed our extinction rather than avert it. As part of a salvage crew, you search the hellish containment zones, where a treasure trove of lost tech can help you and your crew eke out a living in a slowly dying world.
