Welcome to the cold void of the moon, where vintage tech hums in the darkness and every echo could be your last. In ROUTINE—a first-person horror game set on a lunar base with an ’80s tech aesthetic—the tension isn’t just external; it’s mechanical. Fans of retro-chic horror will feel right at home.
The premise is simple: you wake up on the moon, something has gone very wrong, and your tools feel cobbled together from old lab scraps. The Cosmonaut Assistance Tool (C.A.T) does a bit of everything—it scans, it interacts, it stuns. But there are no health packs, no easy fights: stealth and avoidance are your closest allies.
The art style leans heavily into that retro-future vibe: CRT flashes, 8-bit menu noises, analog meters, and moon-dust settling on blinking panels. The setting—a lunar base once brimming with hope—is now silent, broken, and ominous. The visuals craft the dread as much as the sound.
