The planet’s surface has been overtaken by the Net—a living organism capable of distorting the perception of reality.
The remnants of humanity hide in underground bunkers, watching the world crumble.
You are a leading specialist in biological threats, but years of your research have yet to yield success.
When the Net breached the base, people began destroying each other and the equipment.
You managed to barricade yourselves in the residential sector, but the food and water supply is already depleted, and you have enough oxygen for two weeks.
Your task is to manage to destroy the Network to be free from its influence and leave the bunker alive.
Survival system: your diet is limited to laboratory mice, cockroaches, and poisonous mushrooms.
You regularly place and check traps. The catch requires mandatory inspection; some creatures have mutated, and consuming them risks poisoning you.
Alternatively, you can satisfy hunger with mushrooms, but they will inevitably affect your consciousness.
Water must be collected drop by drop from cold pipes as condensate. Each portion of water must pass through a filter to purify it from contaminants. Skipping this step leads to illness and exhaustion.
Research System: The network constantly tests you and your refuge.
Every day, a fragment of it permeates one random object, presenting an unnatural appearance. To obtain a specimen for study, you must discover the infected object and extract the fragment by making contact with it.
To study the sample, specialized solutions are required, which require both time and limited chemical supplies to prepare. Without the correct solution, the investigation will fail or yield false results.
The network is watching you, and all you can do is hope you receive a dead sample before you run out of oxygen.
