Scars Above is a challenging third-person shooter action-adventure game, combining the rewarding thrill of overcoming challenges with a fascinating and complex story, set in a mysterious alien world yet to be explored.

Some things were never meant to be discovered...

A colossal and enigmatic extraterrestrial structure appeared in orbit around the Earth, leaving the whole world dumbfounded; humanity gave it the name "Metahedron". The Sentient Contact Assessment and Response (SCAR) team of scientists and engineers is sent to study it.

Things don't go according to plan, and the Methedron teleports the team across space to a mysterious planet outside our star system. As Dr Kate Ward, one of the SCAR team, you wake up alone and lost in a strange and hostile environment. Determined to survive, you set out to find the rest of the crew and discover what has happened.

SURVIVE AGAINST ALL ODDS

Kate is an astronaut and scientist, not a soldier, but she's resourceful and determined to survive, using long-range weapons, tools, consumables and melee attacks, managing your stamina to run and dodge, exploiting your enemies' weaknesses and discovering new tactics to defeat them.
Combine attacks based on different elements to win and overcome otherwise insurmountable obstacles.
Build a variety of accessories and gadgets to help you deal with the countless threats that abound on this exoplanet.

EXPLORE A MYSTERIOUS EXOPLANET

Immerse yourself in a carefully crafted adventure inspired by the great science fiction classics, exploring a strange world with countless threats, beautiful landscapes and ruins that suggest an ancient but highly advanced civilisation that has mysteriously disappeared.
Traverse different biomes, including swamps, icy deserts, underground caverns and alien installations, all of which present their own challenges, enemies, secrets and environmental

dangers.
