What is ROUTINE?
This single-player, first-person horror game takes place on an abandoned lunar base modeled on an ’80s vision of the future. Investigating why the base has gone silent, you search its sectors, examine data, and use the C.A.T. tool to access terminals and identify clues. You run or hide from threats, using the tool to defend yourself as a last resort.
For you if...
- +you enjoy slow exploration and puzzles solved through careful observation
Not for you if...
- −you want waypoint markers to guide your next steps
- −you prefer direct combat over running and hiding
