Monolith

About

Monolith is a point-and-click adventure with puzzle elements that takes place on a distant alien planet. You play as Tessa Carter, a space explorer who crash-landed 200 years after her cryo-sleep. With only her robot companion, C.O.R.E., she navigates harsh terrain to find an old mining outpost. The game mixes survival challenges with investigative gameplay as Tessa tries to fix the facility and uncover why it was abandoned. The game stands out for its eerie atmosphere and slow-burning mystery. As Tessa explores the crumbling station, players piece together fragmented logs and cryptic clues that hint at a dark history. The unsettling silence and decaying environment amplify the tension, making every discovery feel like a step deeper into a nightmare. While it's too new to have widespread reviews, early feedback on Steam calls it a "compelling mix of suspense and science fiction," with a 4.7/5 average from early access players.

Storyline

Tessa Carter, a space explorer in service of the Intergalactic Mining Corporation, was on a mission with her friend and pilot Mark and asleep in her cryo chamber when the ship came down on a foreign planet. She awoke when the incident was already over. With a small flying analysis robot called C.O.R.E. as her only companion, she must call for help or leave this planet in any other way. Between swamps and rocks she eventually finds an outpost of the Intergalactic Mining Corporation, which looks as if it was abandoned a long time ago. With ingenuity and persistence she tries to bring this place back to live but can not shake a bad feeling, coming alive with it. Nothing inside this station looks as if it was left orderly. The more information Tessa gathers the less everything makes sense – the sense in her life she will desperatly need to escape this impossible situation.
