Strong points

+True to the principles of Alien universe (films, video games, H.R. Giger's Art)

+Breath taking exterior locations (space walking, orbiting gas giants, etc.)

+Interesting characters (meet Amanda Ripley, Company executives and, of course, androids)

+Survival of the fittest (sharpen your senses to avoid death, adapt in a harsh environment or die)

+Ambience (malfunctioning engines, agonizing people, lurking monsters and that distant bass)

+Danger on every turn (hack doors, open locks, craft objects while being exposed and defenceless)
