The premise, in the publisher's words
Fort Solis is a 2023 horror adventure game developed by Fallen Leaf and Black Drakkar Games and published by Dear Villagers. Set in 2080, the story follows Jack Leary, an engineer who arrives at the titular Martian mining station after an emergency alert is activated.

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel i5-4670, AMD Ryzen 3 2300U or similar, 16 GB RAM and Geforce GTX 1060, Radeon RX 5600 or similar. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 17GB.
