Acerca de este juego

A story-driven sci-fi survival game about mining, base-building, and carving out a future in the ruins of corporate greed.

About AETHUS

You are Maeve - an ex-mining engineer from the Astral Research Corporation (ARC), a galactic megacorp that profits by draining planets of their resources.

She’s left the company.

ARC has not left her, however.

On Aethus, ARC claims there is nothing worth having. Maeve knows they are wrong. With basic mining equipment, tales from her beloved grandpa and a sarcastic AI drone called Roland, she works to build a stable life outside ARC’s corporate control. 

Unravel a dystopian capitalist conspiracy as you delve through the remnants of a doomed expedition and the abandoned facilities they've left behind.
