Acerca deste jogo

A distress call is received from a top-secret research station in Antarctica, and then all communications are completely cut off. The final official report contained only scraps of information:

...experiment #347 has reached critical parameters... ...transportation of the sample from Sector D to████████████... ...stability indicators are dropping... ...WARNING... ...containment conditions have been breached... ...personnel evacuated from Levels 6 to 9... ...OH GOD, █████████ IS REAL... ...TIME CAN ████... ...IT'S NOT A VACUUM, IT'S WATCHING US...

Your squad's mission is to reach ICE-1 Station, located deep under thick layers of ice. This is a place where hundreds of scientists, soldiers, and researchers lived and worked. Within its depths are hidden things that can obliterate the boundary between reality and insanity. And if even one of those objects gets out of the station, it will mark the end of the world as we know it.

Factions and enemies

ICE-1 Station is packed full of mysteries. In its depths, you'll encounter not only anomalies that shatter the rules of reality. The accommodation blocks and laboratories have become a battlefield for various powers. A hive intelligence is turning people into mutant puppets, an insane AI is creating monstrous hybrids of flesh and metal, and the few survivors are desperately trying to keep the situation under control. In the shadows, meanwhile, hide creatures whose origin is entirely inexplicable. Exploit the conflicts between the different factions wisely—within these walls, any move can turn the tide of battle!

Explore the world

The gigantic underground complex stretches for miles beneath the Antarctic ice. Official maps show a number of research facilities, accommodation blocks, and technical areas. However, the true scale of the location and all its secrets are known only to a few. Explore every corner in search of mysterious artifacts, read top-secret documents, and talk to the survivors to discover the whole truth. One of the (im)possible truths.
