Our take on SCP-087: Recovered document
The bounce point arrives when exploration becomes an exercise in following the fund’s directions while fear and uncertainty build. Players expecting combat-driven action may lose interest at that point, since the central tension comes from investigation, secrecy, and the consequences of disobedience.
