About

█ ROUTINE is a First Person Sci-Fi Horror title set on an abandoned lunar base designed around an 80s vision of the future.
Curious exploration turns into a need for survival when a lunar base goes completely quiet. Searching for answers puts you face to face with an enemy who is certain the main threat is you. Discoveries lead to deeper unknowns and the only way to go is forward. ▌
Note: ROUTINE offers no waypoint markers, finding your way is part of the experience. Slow down, observe your surroundings, explore carefully, and review data to uncover the path forward.
█ EXPLORE: Roam through contrasting sectors of the lunar base, from deteriorating living quarters and tram stations to an abandoned mall. ▌
█ OBSERVE: Investigate your surroundings and uncover crucial information to progress and piece together the events that unfolded before your arrival. ▌
█ IMMERSE: Full body awareness, diegetic audio, and minimal UI help create a gripping and atmospheric experience. ▌
█ OPERATE: Your Cosmonaut Assistance Tool (C.A.T.) is vital. Use it to access critical terminals, navigate the environment and identify clues. ▌
█ SURVIVE: Run, hide, or attempt to defend yourself against unknown threats using the C.A.T. as a last resort. ▌

I didn't know what to expect but I fell in love with it. It's in my top 10 and probably the most immersive game I've ever played.
I'm too much of a scaredy cat to play horror games. I'm stuck in the Mall because I'm too scared ;_;
S tier cosmic horror. Incredible atmosphere and audio design. Worth your time.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Понравилось внимание к мелочам, хорошо сделана. Головоломки интересные. Ретро дизайн на высоте
Muito bom recomendo pra quem quer um mistério com uma historia boa.
If you enjoy Alien Isolation, or just in general Sci-fi horror, this is a must-play. Whether you are waiting for the Alien Isolation sequel game to come out or just want to experience a one-of-a-kind game, this is simply THE must-play game. I enjoy horror in all its forms, painting, writing, audio drama, video games, movies, photography, and anything else. I absolutely love horror in all its forms, and I especially love sci-fi horror, but there is very little good sci-fi horror and even less horror nowadays that gets to me. But this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game is so good. The best way to get rid of fear is dissociation, which is bordering on impossible when it feels like I am right there, with its almost photorealistic graphics laid in a thick layer of VHC static. Many times, I just sat in small corners as I listened to the horrors walk past me in utter dread and fear; nothing prepared me for this game, and I recommend going into this game almost completely blind if you can. 1: I think the biggest problems I have with the game are that it is a little bit short, you can beat it in less than a day, which I sort of expected with the game looking so good as it does; you have to cut your losses somewhere, and better this game comes out in 2025 rather than 2035, but I think one more area with the [spoiler] Robots [/spoiler] would have been nice. 2: I believe there should be fewer batteries everywhere. The game makes a big deal about your C.A.T running out of batteries, but this only happened maybe twice in my whole playthrough, and when it runs out of batteries you can still save, and even then there is usually a big pool of them around most save areas. I personally believe they should have given you 5 charges on your CAT instead of 3, make there be overall fewer batteries in the whole game, and make it require batteries only for stunning and saving. Opening doors should not cost batteries, but maybe that is just me? 3: The story is a little bit too esoteric, and I love some weird hard-to-understand ♥♥♥♥, but even I was a biiit confused as to what this game is really about, but I am also very stupid 4: They game really could have used with a little bit more indication on where to go, a blinking light or something of that sort. along with a map on your CAT device, A third little slider that when activated let you see a map of everywhere you have walked in a given area. Overall, I think this game is a must-play if you like weird sci-fi, horror, both, or just want to see if it will give you a heart attack, even with the few faults this game has. It is a clean 8.5/10 must-play
No sabia que esperar, pero quería jugarlo. Al final fue una sorpresa lo inmersivo que es, la historia te atrapa tanto que es como estar jugando un documental real, la manera de utilizar los equipos, buscar información y los sonidos de ambientes están geniales. Tiene una buena duración y te deja satisfecho al terminarlo, claro que el final te deja pensando, pero eso es lo bueno de estos juegos. Lo único que me llamo la atención con el rendimiento, que esta bastante bien, es que me tenia casi siempre al 100% mi grafica, así que se calentaba mas de lo habitual.
WAIT FOR SALE AT AROUND 15 OR LESS. A well done horror game that has some really unique mechanics, incredible atmosphere and juicy scares that can frighten even horror enthusiasts like myself. The mechanics are really cool, everything is largely a projection, your torch, the way you interact with terminals and buttons, and how you get through different encounters. It really adds an analogy feel to it when your only source of light is a tiny little screen that you have to physically move around. Unfortunately it's short, and the story is quite abrupt. It also doesn't play around with it's mechanics too much, you largely don't need to bother with your torch, and most encounters end up being your typical hide until the monster goes away, which is a shame. Good overall experience, I enjoyed it thoroughly and it even managed to scare me, but it's too overpriced for what little you get.
monster very scary it lowkey stands outside waiting to jump you bro
Short but sweet, loved the whole vibe and story (at least from what i could make out and piece together). if you love the classic Space-race motif and horrors beyond human understanding. its a good buy. REALLY hoping for more in the future. cheers!
