You’ll need to explore your surroundings for clues to solve mind-bending puzzles and escape your prison.  It may sound like a classic escape game, where you work together with your fellow captives, however, this is anything but a team-building exercise. This is a ruthless death game where at least six people must die in order to escape. Who will live, and who will die? The choice is yours.

It’s an extreme situation, trapped in a cold, inorganic space with no one but your fellow captives. This game depicts the anxiety of death being moments away, and the dark side of humanity when everyone feels no one can be trusted, but it pulls you in and doesn’t let go. The decisions you make will significantly affect the fate of the game’s characters, and ultimately the survival of the human race.
