What it does

Capsule is a single-player survival game played entirely through a radar interface. Players navigate a hostile landscape, learn about their surroundings, and unravel a classic sci-fi story in the process. Best played in a dark room with headphones. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR PLAYERS WITH MISOPHONIA.

“It's amazing, the kind of experience that only comes from the tiny subset of games that work on me.
