We Love It's Guide to…

Monstrum

You wake alone aboard a derelict cargo ship and must find a way off it while a monster hunts you. There is no combat-focused way to deal with the threat; survival depends on avoiding it and using what you find. Explore the ship for parts needed to prepare one of three escape routes: a helicopter, submarine, or life raft. Hide in lockers or under furniture, and use objects as distractions to create opportunities to move or search. Each run changes item locations and selects one of three monsters with different behaviors. Death starts a new attempt, so you must search and escape again. Notes and recordings scattered around the ship offer fragments of its story.

Search a shifting cargo ship for escape parts, evade one of three hunting monsters, and survive each run without a second chance.

Hide and Distract

Monstrum takes the traditional survival horror formula and remixes it completely with procedurally generated levels, permadeath, and AI driven predators, ensuring that nowhere on its derelict cargo ship is ever truly safe.
