Isolate

Isolate follows I-26, who takes part in a secret biological experiment for money. You control I-26 as he tries to survive attacks from machines called Entities for two weeks. If he makes it through, he can move to the next floor and face another ordeal.

Survive the experiment

You cannot stand up before the time limit ends, so you must use a camera to survive. Cameras let you monitor Entities across four zones, though some Entities interfere with their use. There are many ways to manage the Entities and stop their attacks, with cameras playing the largest role.

Face the Entities

The game has about 28 types of Entity. They attack or interfere in different ways, and learning how to stop their attacks is essential to survival. Some look human, but all are machines that can think and act only within a set range.

Each floor has an Extra Entity, which changes the feel of the floor and helps the other Entities attack. As you climb higher through the cellar, your skills increase, and you encounter more Entities and greater difficulty. The game is a difficult series of trials.
