Moons of Madness

You play Shane Newehart, an engineer stationed at a remote Mars research outpost built to investigate a mysterious signal. His routine maintenance shift takes a strange turn as equipment fails, crew members go missing, and his perception of the station begins to change. Explore the outpost and nearby Martian locations in first person, interacting with computers and equipment to restore power, communications, and other systems. Tasks include using tools and machinery, finding items, and solving environmental and logic puzzles. The story advances through events, conversations, and written or recorded material found around the base. Along the way, you encounter occasional stealth, evasion, and chase sequences; the experience focuses on exploration and narrative rather than combat.

As Mars-base engineer Shane Newehart, investigate failing systems and unravel a cosmic mystery through exploration and puzzles.
