This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick leave Earth behind and head to a cold, silent lunar research station in Pragmata, where something has gone very, very wrong. What was meant to be a straightforward mission soon turns into a desperate fight for survival as they uncover a facility overrun by malfunctioning machines, dangerous security systems, and secrets buried deep beneath the moon’s surface.
Along the way, they encounter Diana, a mysterious young android girl with abilities far beyond anything they expected. Teaming up with her, the pair must navigate collapsing corridors, solve high-tech puzzles, and outsmart hostile AI forces while trying to piece together the truth behind the station’s downfall and what it means for the future of humanity.
Can Dave focus long enough to stop staring at the shiny sci-fi visuals? Will Nick lose patience the moment the first hacking puzzle appears? And just how many times will they confidently head the wrong way in zero gravity?
