You will need to explore abandoned camps and buildings, solve micro-puzzles, and build up your own defenses in order to survive. Harvest resources to build your structures, and collect Data Shards to gain passive abilities. Waves of hostile alien creatures will try to disrupt progress, so stay alert! Find weaponry, and stack upgrades to augment your character abilities during the run, in order to keep up with the opposition and defeat the run's final boss.
