The signal should have been impossible. Yet, something answered.
An isolated research station in Antarctica has gone silent after a mysterious experiment involving an extraordinary energy source. Cut off from the outside world, surrounded by endless ice, your crew must struggle to survive while reality itself begins to unravel.
In Southern Lights, every turn forces difficult decisions. Repair critical systems or continue vital research? Save exhausted crew members or push them beyond their limits? Protect the station - or sacrifice parts of it to survive another day.
As supplies dwindle and the unknown grows stronger, the line between scientific discovery and unimaginable horror begins to disappear.
