# The Outpost Nine: Episode 1 Summer DB entity ID: cd1bef34\-4e4f\-4378\-baca\-247a13545d31 Steam App ID: 882040 RECOMMENDED FOR YOU About the Game JOIN US ON DISCORD 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\. ## Game information - Type: game - Developer: Benjy Bates - Publisher: Sedoc LLC - Release date: Jul 27, 2018 - Coming soon: false - Free to play: false - Parent Steam app: Not collected - Genres: Adventure, Indie - Categories: Single\-player, Family Sharing - Platforms: windows, mac - Website: Not collected - Screenshots: https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_ba9cd8e9ef132685b106e0e9ccc5b98ca3b6da15\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_6d36310d00f51b1de0a081251c35fdac817a7be8\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_2aa9a6730c07c8f1858e9ede186fc43e31e2fa5e\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_8aefb6b9f1d4070261e564abd35236e0e3c6d933\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_bea949013366235d8d9367c4c06995b82fcfcd51\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_7a07eb902daf32570cad490ac8907f015cfa0920\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_cebd088d307ab270cb8e2489c94f84298e9a61ed\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232, https://shared\.akamai\.steamstatic\.com/store\_item\_assets/steam/apps/882040/ss\_eb587562c4acd01e3d0125667974605a24bcaf5f\.1920x1080\.jpg?t=1680432232 - Price: 499 minor units USD; discount 0% - Price country: US ## Observed metrics - Current players: 0 - Steam review count: 53 - Steam positive reviews: 39 - Steam negative reviews: 14 - Steam positive percentage: 73.58490566037736% - Summer DB rating: No native votes Review filters: \{"language":"all","review\_type":"all","purchase\_type":"all","filter\_offtopic\_activity":0\} ## Player history [Seven-day chart data as Markdown](/api/v1/entities/cd1bef34-4e4f-4378-baca-247a13545d31/player-metrics?days=7&format=markdown) · [JSON](/api/v1/entities/cd1bef34-4e4f-4378-baca-247a13545d31/player-metrics?days=7) Chart values are hourly observed maxima.
