About the game

A story-driven sci-fi detective puzzle game where mind reading, shapeshifting, and social roles open different paths through the game. Explore Area 51, use dialogue, avoid enemies, and uncover a conspiracy inside a secret military base.

Original Steam description

You are an alien trapped inside Area 51. Read minds. Steal identities. Uncover the truth. Escape before they discover who you really are.

Escape from Area 51 is a story-driven sci-fi detective game combining mind reading, shapeshifting, stealth, puzzles, and exploration.

You wake up inside a secret military base 60 years after a disaster. Explore Area 51, uncover its secrets, and discover what really happened to your father.

Read minds of base personnel to uncover secrets, clues, and new paths.

Change your identity to gain access to new areas, conversations, and opportunities.

Investigate what is happening and piece together fragments of the truth.

Your form changes how people react to you. What a scientist tells another scientist may be completely different from what they tell a soldier.

Solve puzzles and find your own way through the base using ventilation shafts, restricted areas, and hidden routes.

EVA, your electronic voice assistant, accompanies you through the base:

  • provides contextual hints

  • helps you navigate the facility

  • highlights possible paths

But can you trust everything she tells you?
