So far I enjoyed it but I ran into a glitch in the second part. I was messing with the keypad in the offices by the railway and I tried to open a door only to get a "nahp." and it just didn't do anything else. I thought maybe I encountered the thing but no...nothing else happened...just the beeping and the map and everything stayed but I couldn't make any decisions. Literally blank on the bottom left but it didn't say I died or anything..just the map, the beeping like it was. Wish this was one of the times I was recording to show better but whenever I get a mood to go through all the dialogue again I'll record just in case.

The Outpost Nine is a Visual Novel/Point and Click hybrid game following the small skeleton crew of “The Outpost”, A lonely mining facility set on the small moon “Cobalt Paradise”.
While preparing the facility for the arrival of the rest of the Outpost mining crew, they accepted a distress call from a close-by freighter. While searching the freighter, they find two pilots, one horribly disfigured yet alive and only the remains of the other.
However, the pilot they bring into the Outpost turns out to be host to a bizarre and frightened parasite putting the crew in intense danger.
The gameplay switches between that of a visual novel through cutscenes and then into a top down point and click in gameplay. Actions in the game are chosen through a menu, in a similar style to Snatcher or Policenauts.
As you make your way around the facility, solving puzzles, you have to avoid the pilot. You do that by listening to the beeping of your motion scanner and when it gets closer, find a place to hide.
