Skip it if you…

- Players who need dependable navigation may struggle with the unreliable minimap.
- Players looking for a non-VR experience may not find this suitable.
Our take on Alien Extraction
The bounce point is the security-desk structure: Lenny is guided remotely rather than controlled directly throughout the station. Players who depend on reliable navigation may hit another wall when using the unreliable minimap.
What is Alien Extraction?
Alien Extraction is a lighthearted VR simulation set on an alien-infested space station.
Players control the facility from a security desk and guide Lenny, the station janitor, through deadly and dangerous levels. Available tools include security cameras, security drones, and facility controls. Video feeds show alien movements and secrets, while drones can explore, distract aliens, and lead Lenny to safety. The game also includes an unreliable minimap, faulty software systems, achievements, and an office radio with music. Lenny’s actions include sneaking, burning, distracting, piloting, blasting, and cleaning. The objective is to guide him through dangerous situations while operating the station remotely.
