Think mint-tin game in digital form. Every run drops your salvage crew into a derelict ship crawling with Endoparasites where you'll be stalked by the Matriarch, a terrifying predator that is always right behind you.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras/92ec9910cb4d1e00437052157b8024a1.avif?t=1783773912" data-big-src=https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras_big/92ec9910cb4d1e00437052157b8024a1.avif?t=1783773912 width=1560 height=982 />Reveal the ship one module at a time; it's a unique layout and a different story each time. Scavenge for grenades, deploy turrets, and make use of medstations. Fight through wave after wave of Endoparasites with a fistful of dice. If you make it to the evac point, the Matriarch corners you for a push-your-luck final stand. Every Endoparasite you fail to kill along the way adds to her HP bar. Bank your hits, or push for more and risk going bust.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras/a368735b37d2a60ad1f39b65dfb5b274.avif?t=1783773912" data-big-src=https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras_big/a368735b37d2a60ad1f39b65dfb5b274.avif?t=1783773912 width=1560 height=982 />Your Agents go from Full Health to Injured to DEAD — and there's no coming back. Endoparasite infection spreads invisibly through the team, costing you dice and, if you don't purge it before evac, possibly denying your survivors a seat home on the dropship. Escape clean or you won't escape at all.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras/2f4a694d9f91d5c9bea9b8a4dc3f8d14.avif?t=1783773912" data-big-src=https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4871240/extras_big/2f4a694d9f91d5c9bea9b8a4dc3f8d14.avif?t=1783773912 width=1560 height=982 /><h2 class="bb_tag" >Key Features</h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li>A pocket-sized squad-survival card game. Every run is a tense, self-contained 15-minute adventure — pull it out, play it, put it away. Made to be replayed, not finished.</li><li>Push-your-luck dice combat — the final boss battle is a gamble between banking damage and losing everything by going bust.</li><li>An alien predator that hunts you — the Matriarch closes in each turn; use your items well to reach the evac point with all four members of your Fireteam intact.</li><li>True permadeath roguelike — a freshly shuffled derelict every run, and dead Agents never come back.</li><li>Hidden infection — Endoparasite Embryos spread unseen, sap your dice, and can strip a win at the final bioscan.</li><li>Use your items strategically — grenades, turrets and datacards can modify dice rolls; medstations can patch up injured agents and remove Endoparasite embryo infections; recruit a Survivor to expand your Fireteam, or bring the boss-killing Exo online by recovering all three datacards.</li><li>Multiple endings, four difficulties — from Story to Nightmare, with a legacy game feature called the Contractor that unlock as you play.</li><li>Atmospheric terminal horror — a cold corporate-salvage future rendered in glowing CRT readouts.</li><li>Fully localized— playable in 8 languages; single-player and offline. </li></ul>Quick-to-play by design. Nostos started life as a mint-tin tabletop game — a whole experience that fits in your pocket. A single run is about 15 minutes, so it's built to be pulled out on a break and played in one sitting. The depth is in the replay, not the runtime: every run reshuffles the odds, forces new decisions, and tells a different story. Nostos pays well. Nostos keeps track. Nostos does not pay for bodies left behind. Bring back the Datacards — and as many of your Fireteam as you can.
