Mechanics

Exophobia features a single-player campaign, in which we observe the action from a first-person perspective. It is one of the dynamic and unforgiving shooters, where we use an arsenal of firearms to eliminate dozens of enemy soldiers and powerful monsters as bosses. Success will provide us with knowledge of the enemy's movements and discernment in the terrain.

During the adventure we explore various levels of the spaceship with a maze-like arrangement of rooms, in which in addition to enemies we can encounter numerous and deadly traps and hidden locations with secrets. There are also rooms on the ship, thanks to which we can improve the operation of our weapons, adding for example an ability that changes their functioning.
