About Back To Ground Zero : First Contact
In 2001, a catastrophic experiment conducted by C.E.R.N tore open a dimensional breach, creating a portal to an endless network of tunnels filled with radiation, anomalies, and dangerous entities.Shocked by their discovery, C.E.R.N quickly secured governmental funding and founded O.M.E.N — a specialized operations team trained to security, construction, and containment.However, the mission soon turned into disaster. The O.M.E.N team suffered heavy losses due to extreme radiation exposure, unpredictable anomalies, and violent encounters with hostile entities. Eventually, C.E.R.N was forced to shut down the operation and cancel the project entirely.Years later, the portal has been reopened by a former top O.M.E.N operatives. Manned exploration is no longer an option.Instead, an advanced, well-equipped remote-controlled drone is sent deep into the tunnels to recover samples, gather data, and secure the tunnels.What was once a research mission has become something far more dangerous… and far more important.
The game includes a wide range of features. In this dangerous dimension, the drone must complete its mission: explore, gather data, and survive in a hostile world. To succeed, it relies on a variety of specialized tools and devices. One of them is:
Locator Device: a tool created by O.M.E.N. with multiple functions:
- Scanner application: Upload data or capture transmissions floating in the ether, such as images, videos, audio, or text files.
Captured transmissions are saved to your data log, allowing you to review them at any time: Listen to audio, watch videos, view images, or read discovered text files.
- Detector application: Detect specific items in the levels by selecting their material properties. You can filter by a single parameter or combine multiple ones to isolate a specific item.
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's immersive atmosphere and clever mechanics that go beyond standard horror tropes, particularly the RC drone system and exploration tools that feel purposeful rather than superficial. The sound design and environmental tension are consistently highlighted as effective, along with well-designed enemies that create genuine scares without relying on cheap jumpscares. Minor complaints are sparse, with players mostly expressing enthusiasm about the polished execution and hoping for future content updates.
The game creates an immersive experience that draws you in - you can tell the developer has put serious effort into crafting layered systems. The RC drone mechanic is a clever twist on the horror genre, keeping you one step removed from danger while somehow making it feel more tense. The Locator Device with its scanner and detector applications adds genuine depth to exploration rather than just being window dressing. Worth watching for horror fans who want something beyond the usual "walk around scared" formula. Looking forward to your future work!!2 found this helpful
This game is amazing! There are absolutely no jumpscares, but somehow I still managed to lose contact with my chair a few times. It runs really well, with no bugs in sight! The plot is interesting, and all the objectives blend perfectly with it. At some point, you can even hear a MEOW (I couldn't find the cat). The atmosphere this game creates is impressive. The sound effects and environment really make you feel like you have to get out of there fast. It also has some unique mechanics that may feel overwhelming at first, but they all serve a clear purpose. I'm definitely impressed by this game, and I highly recommend it!!2 found this helpful
The game has a great atmosphere that quickly pulls you in. It creates real tension and keeps you alert. I especially liked the mechanic where you need to make sure the antennas are activated; if you miss one, you have to go back to the control room, which adds a nice challenge. Every tool you had , has a clear use, and you need to use them correctly to complete the mission. The monsters are well-designed, especially the one that moves when you’re not looking—That thing is a real source of terror for me, and I lost more than once because of it. The sound effects make the experience even more intense. Overall, the game is fun to play, with strong potential for even better updates ahead.2 found this helpful
