ABOUT THE GAME


The Outpost Nine - Episode 1 is a Visual Novel/Point and Click hybrid game following the small skeleton crew of “The Outpost”, A lonely mining facility set on the small moon “Cobalt Paradise”.

While preparing the facility for the arrival of the rest of the Outpost mining crew, they accepted a distress call from a close-by freighter. While searching the freighter, they find two pilots, one horribly disfigured yet alive and only the remains of the other.

However, the pilot they bring into the Outpost turns out to be host to a bizarre and frightened parasite putting the crew in intense danger.

Gameplay


The gameplay switches between that of a visual novel through cutscenes and then into a top down point and click in gameplay. Actions in the game are chosen through a menu, in a similar style to Snatcher or Policenauts.

As you make your way around the facility, solving puzzles, you have to avoid the pilot. You do that by listening to the beeping of your motion scanner and when it gets closer, find a place to hide.

Recommended Jul 4, 2025
Nice little mix of a text adventure/ADV game. It's a fairly beat-for-beat remake of the original Alien movie, albeit with a few changes. Updates are fairly slow (Episode 2 came almost five years after the original release!), and it's pretty short right now, but at least the project's not dead?
Not recommended Feb 1, 2024
too short, too boring. bonus points for being an ambitious project, but the puzzle in chapter two is too boring and meaningless. I don't despise retro visual novel style games (e.g.Yuppie Psycho), but this one is just not that great.
Not recommended Jan 30, 2024
So. Reading about the unfinished story of this game gave me an idea. karma. I went to the developer page and put all their games into ignore list. that is the price for not delivering on your promises. I encourage everyone to do the same.
Not recommended Jul 10, 2023
Dialogue is awful, I only played a few minutes but the ghetto crap turned me off.

That was amazing! I had such a great time, the story and writing fit well and the visuals are so captivating. Part one was an excellent set-up and part two was exciting and tense. I'm pumped for the next part.
