You see the map. They face the dark.
Clock in as an Observer responsible for guiding a client through hazardous zones. They enter places you cannot see. Read their reports, track their position, draw the map and send the right commands to bring them home.
The office is not safe either. Power failures, broken equipment, anomalies and creatures pull you away from the desk at the worst possible moment. Stay quiet, watch your surroundings and rely on your fellow Observers.
Survive the shift
• 1–4 player online co-op — Play alone or run the night shift with up to three friends.
• Guide what you cannot see — Draw the map from client reports, signals and limited information.
• Work the desk — Use a computer, phone, radio, command console and whiteboard to keep clients alive.
• Face danger on both sides — Clients are hunted in the field while danger moves through the office.
• Build your career — Complete work assignments, receive company care packages and performance evaluations, and earn promotions.
Every shift brings a new assignment, new equipment and new dangers. Bring your client home and prove you are ready for another day.
