About Deep Space Horror: Outpost
An alien-controlled ship has one remaining evacuation route, but the pod needs power units from deeper inside. Keycards unlock the rooms holding those resources, while ammunition and medical supplies support the trip. Close-range alien attacks make retreat space valuable.
How to Play Deep Space Horror: Outpost
Search the ship for keycards, supplies and the power units needed by the evacuation pod. Unlock new sections as you find access cards and keep enemies from crowding the corridor. Return to the escape equipment once the required components are collected.

Keycards and Power Units
The evacuation pod needs power units, and some of those resources are behind electronic doors. Search a newly reached room for its access card and supplies, then connect that card to the barrier it opens. Remember the route back to the pod as you extend the search; collecting a unit is only useful when you can bring it to the evacuation equipment.
Supplies for the Return Trip
Search rooms for ammunition, first-aid kits and grenades as well as access cards. Grenades can help clear a crowded passage, while a medical pickup supports the next encounter. Aliens are especially dangerous at close range, so keep a route behind you and respond before they occupy the same narrow space. Save stronger equipment for the resistance deeper in the outpost.
Practical Tips
- Note which locked door remains unresolved when a keycard appears, instead of revisiting every corridor indiscriminately.
- Fight while backing toward known open space, rather than retreating into a room you have not checked.
