About Keep It Contained

Keep It Contained is a cooperative, communication-driven experience set inside a sealed, high-risk research facility. One player takes the role of a scientist operating within the facility, while the others form an external control team. Your objective is to re-contain dangerous organisms before time runs out.The player inside the facility interacts directly with panels, devices, and organism-related modules. The external team, on the other hand, has access only to the Protocol Book. Each side holds different information, and the only way to bridge that gap is through constant communication:
  • The player inside cannot see the protocols.
  • The external team cannot see the in-game situation, the modules, or the organism.
This separation lies at the core of the game’s tension. Progress depends on accurately describing information, communicating it clearly, and executing steps in the correct order. A single misdescribed symbol, a skipped step, or a command given under pressure can allow the organism to break containment.Game sessions are short but intense. System failures, unexpected events, and organism-specific behaviors constantly test the players’ focus. Success requires clear communication, quick thinking, and strong team coordination. Silence is dangerous — but talking too much can be just as risky.

Features

  • Dynamic scenarios – Procedurally generated module layouts and randomized organism traits ensure that no two sessions are the same.
  • Co-op multiplayer – Designed for two or more players; playable locally or remotely using voice chat services like Discord.
  • Single copy required – Only one player needs to own the game. Others can join using the free Protocol Book.
  • Progressive difficulty – As you advance, more complex modules, new organisms, and additional pressure elements are introduced.
  • Scenario and level creation – Use the in-game editor to design your own missions, module combinations, and difficulty settings.
  • Free Protocol Book – Available on the official website, printable, and accessible from any internet-enabled device.
Here, reflexes won’t save you — communication will.
Keep the organism contained…
or watch the facility fall apart.

had a really fun time playing this with my friend. honestly this game felt way harder than other games in the same genre and even some similar games i've played, but in a good way. it definitely has a lot of potential and you can tell the devs are still working on it since updates keep coming. i actually joined their discord to report a couple of bugs and someone had already mentioned them and they were fixed pretty quickly, which was really nice to see. if you know what you're doing and communicate well you can probably finish it in a few hours since there isn't really endless gameplay, but if you just want to spend a night having fun with a friend and you like challenging puzzle games this is definitely a good choice

My friends and I had a lot of fun. There aren't many games like this on the market, and the ones that do exist aren't nearly as enjoyable. Even though it's a new game, it's really good. The price is very reasonable, too. We're eagerly looking forward to upcoming updates. Great job—keep up the good work.

The different and challenging modules make the game even more fun and keep things interesting. I really enjoyed playing this game together with my friends. It feels different from other games in the same genre, which makes it stand out. I think with future updates, Keep It Contained can really reach its full potential. Definitely worth giving it a try.

A fun and challenging two player game that somehow also manages to turn you against each other. My friend and I literally argued our way through the levels but honestly it was worth it, would recommend!

There are definitely some things that need improvement, but we had a lot of fun playing. Some parts were really difficult and involved a lot of yelling. 10/10 if you want to find out which of your friends are dumb. Looking forward to future updates!
