At the start, a 60-second countdown runs: you gather people and equipment. In the capsule the pace calms down, but your decisions still have consequences. You share out supplies, react to events and plan the next steps of the expedition.

Escape from the space station

A catastrophe makes the space station uninhabitable within a minute. Whoever reaches the escape pod in time gets away into space. Afterwards the mismatched crew tries to find a safe place along the way.

Food, equipment and scarce supplies

Every item you take along may be missing later or may defuse a crisis. Supplying the astronauts is especially important. Supplies must be distributed so the crew stays able to act and survive unexpected incidents.

Keeping the crew together

As captain, you do not just look after the survival of individual astronauts. Relationships and morale within the group also shape the journey. Arguments and dissatisfaction can strain life in the cramped pod.

Events and alternative paths

Random encounters and crises demand decisions whose consequences may only show later. The crew's makeup and the supplies rescued at the start change what you can do. That is why runs develop differently.

Crafting and repairs

You craft equipment and tools from collected resources that make life in the pod easier. Crafting goes beyond simply rationing the starting supplies and makes it possible to respond to new problems with self-made equipment.
