Quarantine Circular

Quarantine Circular is a text-based adventure set during a global, world-ending pandemic, when an unknown entity arrives on Earth. A small group of humans must decide, on behalf of the whole planet, whether to trust the stranger from the stars.

The fate of a vulnerable human race rests on your dialogue choices, both with your fellow scientists and with the off-world visitor. Working as a team, you try to determine whether the alien has come to help or plans to strike while the planet is weak, and your conversations decide how the story ends. The self-contained tale runs about two hours, split into chapters you can finish in one sitting or in smaller pieces.

The game comes from the award-winning team behind Thomas Was Alone, Volume, and Subsurface Circular, drawing on classic adventure games and modern dialogue systems. No prior Bithell game is needed to follow it. Extras include a responsive soundtrack by Dan Le Sac, an art gallery, and an unlockable interactive developer commentary called Mr Commentary.
