Space is Red

Space is Red is an alt-history sci-fi horror visual novel.

The game takes place aboard a Soviet starship in an alternate future where the USSR still exists and competes with the US for dominance in space. After a hyperspace jump to evade an ambush, the crew finds itself near a mysterious planet in a poorly explored sector of the known galaxy. Strange occurrences begin, and suspicion grows among the crew that a traitor may be in their midst.

The visuals are styled like a black-and-white comic book, drawing inspiration from retro-horror manga. Expect multiple endings, detective elements, numerous deaths, and, of course, an alien presence.

Space is Red is a radical reimagining of the first Russian full-length visual novel, «Красный космос» ("Krasny kosmos" or Red Space), originally released in 2007.

The original game, "Krasny kosmos", was never available digitally and was never translated into other languages. With Space is Red, this has finally changed.
