Setting the scene

The bunker is a cold war era facility, a cold, dark clinical areas with low lighting. Start of the game is in the morgue, centred in the base of bunker. The main conflicts include the thing spreading from the doctor in charge of the autopsy and reeking havoc across the facility. The main character awakes in his quarters to the base alarm, finds multiple people, one becomes infected and starts to kill the other. Spartan runs to the armoury to find a weapon where an experimental fire weapon is been developed. Character goes through the game trying to stop "the thing" from escaping to the outside world, eventually sabotaging the onsite nuclear generator and destroying the area. This game will have a dead space theme with a hint of horror and mystery to it.
