Cradle-18

Cradle-18 is a sci-fi immersive sim with survival horror elements, set within the suffocating compartments of an abandoned orbital station.

You are a surviving flight engineer, trapped in a lifeless metallic labyrinth where every single breath literally has a price. The station is dying. Life support systems are failing one by one, plunging the decks into total darkness. There are no linear rails, scripted hints, or map markers here. Your only goal is to survive and regain control of the station by relying on engineering logic, your environment, and the laws of physics.

KEY FEATURES:

• Every Breath Counts: The environment is simulated in real time. A measured pace conserves precious oxygen, but panicked running through dark corridors will drain your tanks in a matter of minutes. Monitor your heart rate, watch the pressure, and remember—in space, no one can hear you gasp.
• Station Power Grid Management: Energy is life. Start the main reactor, manually haul heavy fuel blocks, and distribute power via control terminals.
• Engineer vs. Entropy: The station is falling apart. Replace blown microchips, patch pipe leaks during sudden hull decompressions, and swap out clogged chemical filters in the rebreather right on time. You are no superhero here; you are a mechanic trying to keep a multi-ton superstructure from tearing itself apart.
• Atmosphere of Absolute Isolation: Immerse yourself in the thick, oppressive ambient soundscape of sci-fi horror. Silent corridors, the scraping of warping metal, and rare automated system alerts create a profound sense of loneliness. Read the environment, piece together the timeline of the catastrophe through meticulous environmental storytelling, and uncover the mystery of Cradle-18.
