Game Introduction
R.E.P.O. (Retrieve, Extract, & Profit Operation) is a cooperative extraction horror game set in a world where abandoned facilities have become overrun with dangerous creatures. As a contractor for the shadowy R.E.P.O. corporation, your job is to venture into these hostile environments, collect valuable resources, and extract safely while facing terrifying threats.
The game takes place in a dystopian future where ecological disasters and corporate experiments have led to the creation of monstrous entities. Your team's mission is to retrieve valuable artifacts and resources from these abandoned facilities, all while managing limited resources and evading the nightmarish creatures that lurk within.
With a focus on tension, strategy, and teamwork, R.E.P.O. challenges players to make difficult decisions under pressure. Will you push further to collect more valuable loot, or extract early with what you've already salvaged? Every decision could mean the difference between profit and death.

A sprawling laboratory complex where forbidden experiments were conducted. Features multiple levels, ventilation systems, and secure containment areas. High-value technological artifacts can be found here, but beware of escaped test subjects.
Industrial Mining Complex
A massive underground mining operation that uncovered something it shouldn't have. Navigate through narrow tunnels, massive caverns, and industrial machinery. Rich in mineral resources but plagued by entities that emerged from the depths.
Quarantine Zone
A hastily abandoned urban area sealed off after a catastrophic event. Explore residential buildings, commercial districts, and government facilities. The most dangerous of the three worlds, but with the potential for exceptional profits.

Survival Tips
- • Plan your loadout based on the mission objectives and the environment you'll be exploring.
- • Communication is key - use voice chat or the ping system to coordinate with your team.
- • Know when to extract - pushing your luck can result in losing everything you've gathered.
- • Conserve resources - ammunition, medkits, and other consumables are limited.
- • Learn enemy patterns - each type has weaknesses and predictable behaviors.

- • Establish safe rooms - secure areas to regroup and plan your next move.
Progression Strategy
