Keep It Contained description

Keep It Contained

Keep It Contained is a cooperative, communication-driven experience set inside a sealed, high-risk research facility. One player takes the role of a scientist operating within the facility, while the others form an external control team. Your objective is to re-contain dangerous organisms before time runs out.

Inside the facility, the player interacts directly with panels, devices, and organism-related modules. The external team, by contrast, can only consult the Protocol Book. Each side holds different information, and the only way to bridge the gap is through constant, precise communication. A single misdescribed symbol, a skipped step, or a rushed command can allow the organism to breach containment.

The core tension lies in sharing information without seeing each other’s situation. The interior player cannot view the protocols, while the external team cannot observe the live module state or the organism. Success hinges on clear descriptions, careful sequencing, and timely execution under pressure. Silence is dangerous, but talking too much can be risky as well—the balance is delicate and essential.

Sessions are designed to be short and intense. System failures, unexpected events, and organism-specific behaviors continually test focus and coordination. The challenge grows as you push forward, with containment dependent on teamwork as much as individual skill.

Key Features

  • Dynamic scenarios: procedurally generated module layouts and randomized organism traits ensure every run feels fresh.
  • Co-op multiplayer: designed for two or more players; playable locally or remotely with voice chat.
  • Single copy required: only one player needs to own the game; others join via the Protocol Book.
  • Progressive difficulty: advancing sessions bring more complex modules, new organisms, and added pressure elements.
  • Scenario and level creation: use the in-game editor to design missions, module combinations, and difficulty settings.
  • Free Protocol Book: available on the official website, printable and accessible from any internet-enabled device.

In Keep It Contained, reflexes won’t save you—clear communication will. Keep the organism contained, or watch the facility fall apart.
