About Alien: Isolation

About this game

Developed by Creative Assembly and published by SEGA.

Alien: Isolation is a survival horror game set in the universe of the 1979 movie Alien. The player controls Amanda Ripley, daughter of Ellen Ripley, as she tries to survive on a space station infested with Xenomorphs. 

From Ellen Ripley to Amanda Ripley

Take control of Amanda Ripley, the daughter of the protagonist for the original Aliens movie franchise, Ellen Ripley. After finding out that the recorder for her mother's ship, The Nostromo, has been recovered in the trading station Sevastopol, she cannot resist the temptation of what happened all those years ago.

Experience True Isolation

While other horror titles try to scare players with consistent jumpscares, Alien: Isolation terrifies players with the constant feeling of being surrounded by danger. Face off against the horrific Xenomorph hunting down everyone in Sevastopol and fight against other monsters, such as the notorious face huggers and rogue AI!

Survive At All Costs

Survive at all costs; the question is, how? Play against the fearsome Xenomorph and dynamically adapt to each new encounter that presents itself to you. How you will survive is the only question that you need to answer, though you may have a significantly shorter time to get to the answer than you anticipated...

"It may seem strange to complain that a game’s too long, but when the genuine scares of being hunted by an unstoppable predator are so diluted by repetition and padding,...

"Isolation has some flaws, but it's faithful to the film series, and I'd love to see a follow-up with a few extra alien evolutions."

Alien: Isolation Review

Sam Jones
Staff Review
While playing Alien: Isolation, there is a certain feeling of desperation you don't get from most survival horror games. The Alien is smart, and just when you think you've got a formula for working a way around it, it finds you out and brings about your demise.

Over All i liked it. I had to realize it was more of a stealth like game rather than just kill everything ;-) but once you get past that its fun.
