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. ▌

This game is peak. Absolute insane pickup for a one hit wonder game which will give you an amazing experience in which you will most likely not touch after you finish your first playthrough, but thats what makes it special. I can confidently say I'll never play this game again myself, however I will look back on it that more fondly because of it. Does a few things very well. Gives you limited resources, natural tutorials where the player learns themselves and a lore rich world where you have more questions than answers. Will have the average horror enjoyer scared. Highly recommend if you arn't a complete ♥♥♥♥♥, enjoy some thrill and can respect hard indie work.
Das Game Design, Atmosphäre und die Spielmechanik sind Weltklasse. Selten ein so immersives Horrorspiel gespielt. Die Geschichte ist packend und lässt viel Raum für Interpretationen und eigene Vermutungen. Was mich aber ganz klar genervt haben, sind die Hide'n'Run Sequenzen, wo man ständig auf der Flucht vor etwas ist und sich verstecken muss. Ich meine, die Gegner sind okay, aber man hätte es so machen können, dass die Bedrohung zeitweise weg ist. Man ist ständig unter Anspannung und irgendwann rückt die Story und das Gameplay komplett in den Hintergrund, weil die Bedrohung durch die Gegner alles überschattet. So musste ich z.B. einige Computer Logs auslassen, weil man ständig von Entität A verfolgt wurde. Und so nach dem 3-4ten Mal Sterben verwandelt sich der Horror in Frust. Auch gibt es keine wirkliche Gelegenheit die Muster der Gegner zu erlernen, da sich z.B. Entität A auch einfach "teleportieren" kann und dann an völlig unsinnigen Orten erscheint. Für mich absoluter Frust. Ich wurde als Gesamtbewertung eine 8 von 10 geben.

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.

I'm not restarted however I may be acoustic.
Spooky and atmospheric, assumes the player is as smart as at least as smart as the game is, which is both refreshing and recurring point of anxiety when trying to piece together a puzzle while footsteps are rapidly approaching. The 6-7 hour playtime didnt feel rushed or overstay it's welcome
Atmosfera incredibile e sound design non di meno. Questo gioco è riuscito a farmi provare angoscia come non provavo da moto giocando horror e a farmi sentire paranoico anche nelle fasi di gioco più tranquille; un' esperienza intensa che consiglio a tutti gli amanti del genere sci-fi horror.
Nerven zerreißend und sehr atmosphärisch. Sehr schöne Story und schönes Ende. Top!
Honestly, never thought this game was going to come out. Definitely went above my expectations. While the enemies in the game aren't as tough as I might have thought, I think there is a good balance of threats and exploration. I enjoy how the game respects you enough to trust you to experiment and explore. It's also dripping with atmosphere and the sound design is superb. Gets a recommend from me.
A very well done game with a story and lore that keeps you in suspense for what comes next. There is no handholding in this game and the puzzles are very interesting and immersive.
Absolutely insane experience, the immersion level of this game is phenomenal and I loved every second of it! Strongly recommended for any fan of mastefully tense horror sci-fi vibes 🙂
