Total Alarm (n): an anxious awareness of absolute danger

Repairing crumbling space stations. Procuring essential products on the black market. Avoiding spies and secret police. Such is life under the watchful eye of the authoritarian Collective. But there’s more to existence in this galactic totalitarian society than simply learning to live in a shortage economy. As routine missions slowly morph into something more insidious, a terrifying secret will come to life – a secret the Collective would do anything to keep hidden.

Blending rich narrative adventure with strategic resource management, Total Alarm transports players to a retro-futuristic universe steeped in dystopian oppression. As a disgraced yet defiant engineer, you navigate a complex web of scarce resources, failing systems, authoritarian rule, and social manipulation in a desperate bid for the truth.

Life in this totalitarian state is defined by fear, scarcity, and oppression. Inspired by 20th-century Polish communism, the game’s soc-realist visuals capture this dystopian reality stretched across the vast darkness of space. Through equal parts grit, courage, and cunning, you alone can unravel the truth and overcome the ruthless tactics of a regime clinging to power. The Collective is deceptive to its very core...but so are you.
