Do not buy this game unless you want to try and convince friends to buy and play it with you.
The game had run without any serious issues and the majority of the already existing features worked fine. However, the game has not received an update since May 26th of 2017. It has been effectively abandoned by its developers and left to rot in early access, alongside its website which essentially no longer exists.
While there are still some servers available for play, there is nobody else playing on any of them. The entirety of my playtime was mucking around alone and holding the futile hope that somebody else might join the server. Your best chance of actually playing this with others is by convincing friends to play it with you, and even then I would not recommend buying the game due to the abandoned state of both the game and its servers.
I had purchased this in 2019 and I wish I had read the reviews prior to mine. If I was still capable of refunding this game I would most definitely have done such. The game is not worth a dime in this abandoned state.
TL:DR: The game has been abandoned by its developers and has not received an update since may of 2017. There are zero players on any of the servers, and would be a waste of money to buy.
Great game, but now the game is dead that I question why it is still on steam. No one plays anymore but I did play during when it was first released and it was very enjoyable. DO NOT BUY UNTIL ALIVE. The only way for the devloper to save the game would be putting the game out for free now, the entry bar was just way to high. $10 dollars to buy this game on a game that depends on how many people enter? No thanks... So disappointed in what a great potential game it was but the devloper just given up on it because the money was just not there.
Graphics are alright, and it has 0 network lag. Ill give this a good rating so far. Lets hope it doesnt fuck up in the future tho.
It's got a 15$ price tag. The game isn't even close to finished. I don't think it's worth it. I got it on sale, so then it was a fair price for what the game offers. Until it's way more completed and polished, I don't think I'm playing it much more. There's a Garry's Mod game mode that is almost equivalent to this. I will change my mind when I see further development.
Im never really good at writing reviews but I will try to explain my experience with the game. It does need work of course it is a alpha so that is understandable. But it is a extremely fun and well made game that is still being worked on. The developers talk with the fans directly in the discord server and are very down to earth. So as for gameplay its all about paranoia and trying to figure out who you can trust while you do the objectives around the level. You can play different classes that focus on different perks to mix up the game which works out very well. Again im not very good at reviews but please give this game a try it needs the players!
Also it has a discord group page for everyone wanting to find games in it! https://discord.gg/9GG8tTQ
This is a game which mixes "The Thing" with a TTT like aspect. It has quite a lot of potential, the devs talk to the players and the only thing stoppping it from having great reviews is the lack of players. This is caused because normally people like to play the game with 4 or 5 people minimum and, if a player hadn't joined the discord channel where we organise games, they would get fed up with waiting and get a refund, leave a bad review and move on when the game mechanics are quite interesting and it runs quite smoothly as it's quite optimised. Of course there are improvements that can be made, but how many developers talk to their player base and take their suggestions into consideration? This game could turn out to be quite good, but without people joining the discord channel, the player base is being crippled. You can stop this when you buy the game by simply joining this discord channel. Since people are not buying the game, the developers cannot just rely on the money from this game to live on and so development on this game slows down.
tl:dr A good game, lots of potential, good direction, lack of sales due to bad reviews from players who don't join the discord channel, slower development but great communication from said developers.
I would recommend this game to anyone interested and have really enjoyed what it has to offer so far.
There is more depth to it than originally appears, that said we've been fortunate enough to get eight friends to get it so we've had some really great games.
+ Classes are good fun and prove different approaches
+ Inclusion of items such as the radio helps identify aliens (although I don't think players should start with one) and add depth
+ classes still useful as aliens- can research tech to improve aliens like the humans can
+ Aliens can sabotage systems- this is huge and really adds to the tension! We particularly like that they can take out the lights
+ varied objectives keep most matches fresh
+ the two levels are fairly fun and different from each other although the Aurora has much more tension and tactical possibility.
+ Fun with friends as long as you're all on mics.
+ Aliens can crawl on walls and ceilings (as long as they aren't the prime)
-Dying resets skills- it takes far too long as an engineer or scientist to do what you need, and one death resets all of this. Friendly fire counts too, very hard to make progress as an engineer or scientist.
-Not enough of a penalty for killing humans as a human. I've seen others say they want less, but it's possible to kill a few players and carry on playing
- Not enough tutorials or tooltips. After 6 hours we still don't understand the alien abilities!
- Objectives are still not clear (but this is early access) and can result in player death until you've understood it all.
- Not enough areas on maps where there are backdoors- too many places where humans can just camp an entrance and force the aliens to try to rush them.
Despite the cons, I would suggest that as long as you can get a group of people together, this game is well worth the cost and as long as the Devs keep working on it, will continue to be excellent!
I was quite excited about the premise of this game. Unfortunately, when I started it up there was no one to play with. Literally no one was playing the game. That's a bit of a problem for a multiplayer game. I still hopped in for about ten minutes and ran around a map to check out the basic mechanics at least.
After I was done experimenting I went to the forums and brought up the population of the servers and asked about who enjoyed playing the game and if there was a way to get into a game with some other people. A developer responded to me and informed me that the lack of population was currently standard and that there is a Discord chat for the small community which had about twenty-five people on it. I asked if anyone was interested in playing, waited about twenty minutes, checked back on the forum, and then decided to request a refund from Steam.
The game could have potential in the future and yes, it is Early Access, but currently, you won't even be able to play it unless you bring an entire squad of friends with you from the start. I really hope that some day I'll pick this game back up and it will be great but for now I felt that I needed to leave this buyer-beware review.
The only game on the market that really pays respect to the incredible concept that is The Thing. Great game, only needs a bigger crowd backing it up. Look forward to future updates.

Three simple rules:
1. Dont trust anyone.
2. Carefully find a friend/s, who will cover your back.
3. Be eaten by your infected friend.
...back to rule no. 1
Seriously, this game can be great fun. Of course, there can be lack of players sometimes. But this game is pretty new and unknown. So you can help to spread this around the wrold and enjoy some fun for sure.
8.5/10 for this great paranoia simulator.
This game can be a bundle of fun when you find a session with at least 3-4 people in it. Thankfully I was lucky enough to start playing, and found a session of 7 people straight away.
It's not perfect by any means, with many features that could be implimented to make this a far more intense and enjoyable experience, simply lacking (hint towards weldable doors, Devs ;3)
It feels clunky at some given points in time, but the controls are not hard to learn and the variety of classes and perks available is fun to explore.
Did I mention you can ejaculate blood?
Although the game's presently in early access, the core gameplay elements here are already quite well structured and implemented. While this kind of 'the thing' in multiplayer game form has certainly existed before, SurvHive's integration of tabletop style elements and continually shifting objectives keeps individual matches dynamic and engaging and forces human players to improvise rather than strictly hunkering down.
More than anything the game just produces a lot of tremendously entertaining stories and moments, whether tricking human players into trusting you as an alien or turning them against their own comrades, or slinking about dark corners as a human while the powerful Alien Prime hunts you down, it can all be quite memorable. As an EA game, there's still a lot of rough edges, gameplay elements need refinement and there are just the two maps at present, but it's a promising start from a responsive team.
5 Hours on record currently. Here are my Pro's and Con's
Con's:
Currently lacking in depth of content
Quite a few bugs here and there (Death animations are ridiculous)
The cost is quite intimidating
Pro's:
Great concept that has been underutilized in other games
Very stable when playing
Bugs that are in game are being worked on (I met a bug tester playing yesterday)
The game is hugely enjoyable
The Class system in game is not balanced but does work to create different options
If you like the idea of this game I would definitely recommend picking it up, what it lacks in content it makes up for in fun, and I think that more content will be coming in the future would make it a worthwhile investment
I highly recomment this game. Unfortunately right now, the community is small but when a game is going, it's great fun. If you're interested in buying, there's a 2 or 4 pack on humble store that you can get for yourself and friends! The game itself is essentially the movie "The Thing". Human players are paranoid and must band together to survive the alien threat. The alien is disguised as one of the humans and it's a matter of finding out who it is. There are events that happen which cause humans to get out of their cozy fortifications and fix the issue. The alien attacks humans with the means to turn them into an alien as well. The game ends when either all humans have turned into aliens or a human has taken the last escape shuttle. Again, it's great fun and the community is small but growing. Can't recommend enough!
Here's a Discord link too, where players and developers talk! https://discord.gg/6QK8zkv
***UPDATE***
Love the new sabotage system. It really puts a lot more pressure on the human survivors and can easily break up camping when there isnt a major in game event going on. I keep coming back to this game and it's small, but awesome community!
One of the greatest moments I had in this game just happened recently.
Things have been going pretty smoothly on the human side... We've got a nice amount of research done in the science lab, my two scientist buddies and I have managed to get our health and athleticism up substantially. Blood test events and even the killing of the prime alien all seemed to fall into place...I guard them, they keep things going... We've made a nice safe little nest in the lab...we are safe....I guess the alien player must be having a really hard time with this roun......
YOU ARE THE LAST HUMAN......TRY TO MAKE IT TO THE SHUTTLE.
I look left...then right.....my scientist buddies are just standing there.
I sprint.....and the sound of their shrieks as they transform into crawlers fills the halls. I turn on the cloaking device I found in the lab......please...please God .....I see their horrific masses rush towards the room containing the only escape pod. Please dont let them see me, I dont think they ever noticed me grabbing the cloaking device at the beginning of the round...I jump into the escape pod, fire up the engines and blast out.
I MADE IT!
for now...
Please support this game, it is really REALLY fun, and needs a strong community. I love the event system and hope it gets even more fleshed out. It fixes the problem a lot of these games have - too much hide and seek with nothing to do.
The classes and xp / perk system are really well thought out.
The graphics need some polish, but the interface is surprisingly nice for EA.
Seriously, this is one of those games where if a few famous youtubers played it, it would be HUGE. Sadly, it hasn't recieved that attention yet.
Give this game a shot, I'm glad I spent 15$ on it (and now another 45$ for a 4 pack on humble store). I had my doubts and let the return policy be my crutch out - but will definitely be keeping this gem!
This is one of those games that is just oozing with potential. With a bigger and tighter community the team play experience could be amazing. Its like the horror, paranoia driven sci-fi Alien Isolation meets The Traitor Hunting Rpg The Ship. I hope more people join in on the hype because the enjoyment of this game really comes from the people your playing with
If you prefer gameplay over graphics, this game can be a good match for you.
Concept is simple: Human team versus beast team, but everyone spawns as humans and atleast one of you is not who he pretends to be. You got simple tasks around the map to do, but problem is you dont dare turn your back on anyone, as beasts can disguise as humans. The ultimate goal for humans is to survive with one guy and send him away with a ship.
The graphics could be better with some more love, especially hit animation and hit detection.
The game isnt very terryfying, despite tagged as horror on steam, but it doesnt mather. You can compare it to zombie mods in the counterstrike games, but with a better twist.
Pros:
- Exciting concept, trust or be stabbed. Paranoia is a keyword.
- Friendly community (so far to me)
- Active devs
Cons:
- Low playerbase, I'm a EU player and the game is dead on a Friday night ( 25 minutes past midnight, 06.08.2016).
- Graphics could be better
- UI/Hud could need some love aswell
- No tutorial (How do you want players to stick to a new game & learn how to master it? tutorial helps alot. Had to figure out the keybinds for different stuff myself.
- Few maps (only 2 as of 06.08.2016).
I know this game is still in EA, so I recommend it, because it have a great fondation with active devs and a interesting concept , gameplaywise. If you're unsure of buying or not, check the playerbase before you buy.
Found this game as a result of an ad.
Gameplay is fun, even with the earliness of the development. It pits humans against a disguised alien, a la The Thing. The prime alien must infect every other player - turning them into more aliens - to win. The humans must survive as long as possible, as the escape shuttle only has one seat!
The developer is attentive to the game, and pays attention to bug reports and feedback. There's also a Discord!

The game's good, I'll just tell you some basic things that you should know once you get this game:
Press M for the Neon pop up signs, it's very helpful when you need to dash for the airship.
Press G for upgrades, V for special abilties.
As you log in, there isn't a tutorial, you are expected to choose one of the four classes, the Engineer, the Scientist, the Cultist, and the Soldier.
Each of them have their own ways of winning the game, the Engineer can make a giant robot, nessecary equipment, while the scientist can find ways to enhance humans and find new inventions. The Cultist has his/her own objectives that may be to translate artifacts or kill people (I'm not so sure on this part) though I do know that they can have a mutated figure and may cause confusion, last of all is the marine pretty self explainatory run and gun.
Now heres the cool thing, the infected is also in the form of a human, and what this means is he/she can also slowly creep up on people, acting friendly then bam! Tentacle to the face! Or take the long approach, and upgrade themselves by using the class systems as well.
The game is tons of fun~! Absolutely would recommend it, especially if you are, or aren't into tentacle stuff.
One con would be no female characters, but that'd make this game over 21+ so other than that good game.
10/10.
Awoke in a laboratory of some sort. Heard strange noises. Headed to the main hall, where a bunch of guys were suspiciously eyeing each other, pointing guns. Horrid noises started coming out of my radio, whisperings of some sort. All hell broke loose. Screams, gunshots. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw movement. A huge being, attacking humans, jumping insanely high. Ran for my life. Heard screams. Found a shuttle. Ran for it. Two of the creatures were waiting for me, scrambled over, shred my body apart. I'm dead.
Or am I ? There are humans alive still.
Shred trem apart...
This game is about atmosphere and the stories you come away with. So here's my tale.
I awaken in the sleeping quarters. The ship's computer telling me some kind of alien organism is on board. I scramble out the door, waving a pistol down both ends of the corrider. Seeing nothing I take off running down the metal decks of the ship, my foot steps echoing much louder than I'd like. I turn a corner and meet with a couple of my crew, Brice and Joe. The three of us know the alien can take on human form, so naturally we point guns in eachother's faces.
The stand off is cut short though as machine gun fire is heard rattling off in the distance. We three immediately lower our guns, an instant truce being formed. We take off sprinintg to see where the gunfire is coming from, and as we spin around a corner we are rooted to the ground at what we see. A frantic marine is pouring round after round into what I can only describe as a 'Thing'. The marine is decimated, the gore covering the bulkheads. The thing whips its terrible head around to us and charges. We open fire. Bullets tear through the charging beast and it drops just short of Brice's trembling feet.
As we take a breather a larger group of 5 crew members shows themselves from a far off corridor. They have no trust of the three of us. Brice approached them and tried to reason with them, that we need to stick together and that the threat, for now, lay dead. But he's shoved back by a paranoid looking mechanic wielding a make shift flamethrower. He was right to be paranoid. We are led to the canteen of the ship under gun point. Meters from the entrance a horrid scream erupts from beside me. Joe lays dead. Behind him a sickly alien appendage has erupted out of the chest of a member of the other group. One of THEM was infected! The paranoid mechanic's mind breaks, he panics. A torrent of flame washes over alien and human alike. Waves of intense heat firing out in random directions as he tries to burn his fear away.
Brice yells at me to get out of here so I take off running with him. A scientist. and a couple of marines follow along behind us. We regroup in the machine room and it's not long till Brice and I are backing away from the other survivors. The scientist sensing the tension annouced that he's got a way of testing to see if someone is really who they say they are. We all agree to let the doc try it out and take off running for the med lab, our eyes sternly watching eachother as much as the dark corridors around us.
At med lab me and Brice tell the others to stay in the corner while the scientist does his work. One of the marines mentions a sentry gun could be placed covering the only hallway into med lab. Keeping an eye on him me and Brice allow him to set it up. Med lab is locked down and it's only a matter of holding out and waiting for the blood test. A couple of those creatures tried getting down the hall, but between the sentry and our rifles they stood no chance. Things seemed set.
Klaxons started, emergency lights swirled, and the ship's computer calmly announced a fire had started on the bridge. We all panicked, that fire had to be put out. Brice picked up an extinguisher and sprinted out of med lab. No one else followed, so cursing I ran after him to back my friend up, running away from the safe zone. Brice was ahead of me and not slowing down one bit. As I tried to keep up with him the ship's lighting grew dimmer in these sections. I faintly heard the sound of the sentry gun kicking off back in med lab, but I was already committed to my task. Smoke started filling the corridors and with the lack of lighting I started to feel disorientated. I forced myself on, barely keeping track of the twists and turns Brice took as he grew further ahead of me. To hell with the others I thought, me and Brice are the ones risking our lives to put this fire out, we deserve to be the ones to survive. The hanger isn't far from the bridge section anyway, we can do this.
Still running I turned a corner and slowed. At the entrance to the bridge Brice just stood there in the stygian smoke holding the used extinguisher. The computer announced the dangerous state of the bridge had been contained. Excitedly I walked over to Brice and told him we had to go! The fire was out, we can get out of here now! He turned around to me, dropping the extinguisher and said ''I was waiting for us to be alone''.
A slithering jagged mess exploded out of his chest impaling me. I slumped to the cold metal floor. The last sight I had was seeing Brice walking toward the hanger to get in the escape shuttle. Of course I know now, that it wasn't Brice.
SOOOoooo yeah, that's the game. That ended up being much longer than I thought, but fun to write.
