Routine

Routine is an action-adventure game from the survival-horror genre, which in some aspects resembles such productions as Dead Space or installments of the Amnesia series. The title is the debut project of the English indie studio – Lunar Software, which consists of three . Mick Gordon, the co-creator of the sound effects and music for games such as Crysis 3, Dead Space 3 and Need for Speed, has also been involved in the development of Routine.

The storyline revolves around the mysterious disappearance of the crew of the Lunar Research Station. To solve the puzzle we travel through the claustrophobic, dark corridors and rooms of the moon base, uncovering its secrets. The developers have focused mainly on the survival and horror aspects, and have limited the UI and equipment elements to the absolute minimum; in other words, we will not see any first-aid kits in Routine and the death of our character is permanent. The main tool we can use is the CAT – Cosmonaut Assistance Tool, which is a repair device with the appearance of a pistol. The title allows us to upgrade it by using the floppy disks found in the base, and in some cases lets us use it as a weapon.
