Completing the map will take only about an hour. But even this amount of time is enough to explore the abandoned ISS and research centers. Players will have to unravel the mystery of the disaster and escape from the space station before the enemies catch up with them.

The most important thing to know is that the map doesn't require any additional graphics or gameplay modifications. You can play it alone or with friends. The map itself is well-made, with its own atmosphere, and it's evident that the author put a lot of effort into it.
