Outlive

Outlive is a first-person survival horror game set in a post-apocalyptic world where a virus has infected most of the population. You play as Peter, who sets out to prove that the disease and mutations were deliberately created and released by the government, rather than caused by an accident.

Peter's investigation

The crisis began after a storm damaged the steam autoclave sterilization plant at a state facility, which processed waste. The government said the facility had been shut down for months because of biohazard safety issues, but claimed there was no threat to public health and that the virus was unlikely to spread widely. The disease and mutations spread across the country despite those assurances, while news channels carried government announcements alongside studio debates, videos and live broadcasts.

Peter researches the outbreak and thinks he may know where the government’s labs and bases that made the virus are. During his journey, he has an accident and searches the woods for help, where he discovers something unexpected. He must explore abandoned areas above and below ground, collect evidence and find a way to safety.

Survive without weapons

Weapons are nonexistent, and Peter cannot fight. He has only his camera and what he finds along the way, so you must use observation, intelligence and patience to survive. Mutants can hear your footsteps and sense your fear; use the environment to hide, outrun or outsmart them, and overcome obstacles as you search for evidence.

Puzzles and dangers

You solve puzzles using your skills and the environment, and escape traps that may be hidden in the darkness. Exploring the abandoned areas brings disturbing scenes that may make you question your sanity. The game contains violence, gore and blood.
