Story
Selene's ship crashes on an alien planet. And then it crashes again and again and again. The unknown land is inhabited by hordes of hostile aliens with whom the lonely survivor has to fight for her life. Continuing the journey is her most crucial goal because only discovering the secrets of an alien planet can help get her out of this dramatic situation. Unfortunately, the heroine returns after each death to the moment of the crash and has to start her journey anew. The environment and surroundings change each time, and Selene discovers that she is gradually losing her mind.
Gameplay
With each replay, the environment on the planet changes completely. For this reason, you will have to use entirely different found items each time. Don't worry though, because the survival horror situation is not as dreadful as it might seem at first glance.
