About This Game

Welcome to the world of anomalous containment and research director!

Containcorp is a story-driven management simulation game inspired by SCP Universe, where you are tasked with building and managing a facility to contain and study the most bizarre and mysterious entities and objects on the planet. Other inspirations include Prison Architect, Rimworld, Lobotomy Corporation, the SCP Universe, and Severance (TV series).

Key Features

• Contain mad gods, mathematical abnormalities, twisted humans and a myriad of anomalous entities, objects and phenomena

• Implement containment procedures to handle dangerous anomalies and restore order from containment breaches.

• Engage in tactical combat with hostile entities, and hold the defence against raids.

• Design and construct multi-story buildings or burrow underground utilising a plethora of building resources.

• Create efficient power and pipe network grids to handle your facility's logistic needs.

• Manage individual character injuries, desires, and emotions.

• Conduct scientific experiments to unlock technologies with an extensive research system.

• Onboard human test subjects for high-risk experiments.

• Request powerful ordnance from the Corporation's arsenal when all seems lost

• React to dynamic events with a bespoke Storyteller system.

Embark on mind-bending tales of love, loss, and the unknown with unique narratives where no playthrough is the same. The Dynamic Storyteller is neither a friend nor an enemy, but rather a neutral party that will present you with challenges and opportunities.

Become a master of logistics as you handle every aspect of running your facility, from managing electricity and water supply to constructing multi-floor structures that reach into the skies or delve into the depths of the earth.

Acquire funding from the Corporation through grants and successfully containing anomalies. Direct your newfound resources to contain evermore financially rewarding anomalies; hire a top-class workforce, balance the books, and keep your facility running smoothly.

Design your containment solutions from the ground up with total creative freedom to tame ever-increasingly stubborn anomalies. You are only limited by your imagination. Anomalies come in all shapes and sizes, from small objects to large creatures, and will have a variety of abilities and powers that you can exploit to keep them at bay. Whether you choose to follow established containment procedures in the Corporation's database or forge your own, is your authority.

Control a diverse group of “volunteer” test subjects, known as Category C. They are your go-to guinea pigs when experimenting on anomalies under your confinement. They are not expendable, however, and as such you must take care of them. They are not just a number, they are a person. They have a name, a family, a life. They have hopes, dreams, and fears. They have a personality, and they have a story. Care for their well-being as they become integral to your experiments and the containment of anomalies.

Your facility can, and will, falter. A burst pipe flooding a lower level, a power outage disabling half your electrical grid or an over-worked researcher having a mental breakdown in the middle of an experiment. Even the most insignificant cog in the machine can break the whole system. When that happens, the threat of a containment breach looms over. Command your on-site security forces to handle these emergencies with precision and expertise.

Conduct experiments on your host of anomalies and unlock advanced gear for security and research purposes. Build research labs specialising in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Technology, Psychology & Engineering. Push the boundaries of what is possible and gain the upper hand in your quest to understand and contain the uncontainable.

Defend against anti-corporation groups seeking to raid your facility and disrupt your operation. With careful planning and a well-applied strategy, you can face any external threat.

Master a combat system where bullets follow a trajectory through the air, penetrating through any object, be it flesh or stone. No gunfight will ever be the same, but you will always know what to expect. Whether it's calling an airstrike on a group of raiders, using a sniper rifle to pick off a single escaped Category C; using a shotgun to blast through a door to escape a doomed facility, or calling a nuclear strike to stop a world-ending event; it's your prerogative.

When faced with the direst breaches, call upon the Corporation's elite task forces to assist in containment. Systematically secure and contain threats throughout your site and establish order within a limited time, or face the nuclear option.

And when all seems lost, request powerful ordnance from the Corporation's arsenal. Draw the power of devastating kinetic orbital rods, air-burning fuel bombs, and hellfire to turn the tide of anomalous war and bring peace to your site through fire.

Immerse yourself in deep systems where every bullet is physically modelled, each tile has structural integrity and beauty, all characters have needs and mental states, every body part is tracked and filled with blood, each employee follows a schedule, and all anomalies require containment procedures. Master these systems, and many more, with a smart helper that automatically suggests tutorials when you most need them.

Explore a rich and intricate universe where all the anomalies are pre-written and hand-crafted, and unravel dozens of anomaly documents. Each anomaly has its own unique story that you can uncover. Experience these stories through play, and craft your own grander tales.
