Formind is a hardcore third-person survival horror with RPG elements, set within the collapsing underwater complex Zirotech. Waking from cryosleep with amnesia, you find yourself trapped on a station swarming with monsters that don't just kill, they learn. Every mistake you make makes them stronger, and every victory demands a new tactic. In the crushing abyss of the ocean, your survival depends on one thing: can you adapt faster than the shadows hunting you?
