The survival horror game Routine finally launched last week after a 13-year wait, and early reviews from both critics and players suggest it lived up to the hype.
I first saw a trailer for this game when I was in middle school, and now, at 25, it’s finally here. One Steam user perfectly summed it up: good things come to those who wait.
I’ve been following the reviews for this game, and it seems like it’s getting a pretty solid 78 out of 100 on Metacritic! Everyone’s really talking about how scary it is – the developers clearly nailed the horror aspect. A lot of people are saying the gameplay is deliberately slow and weighty, which adds to the atmosphere, but I can see how that might not be for everyone.
The sci-fi game on Steam is receiving great feedback from players. With 1,566 reviews posted, a remarkable 91% of users recommend it. Since its release on December 4, 2025, the game has peaked at 1,620 concurrent players.
What specifically did fans like about Routine?
The game is relatively short – I finished it in about six and a half hours over two play sessions – but I highly recommend it. The gameplay is both enjoyable and tense. It’s been a long time since a game actually scared me, but this one had me jumping!
You’re completely alone: stranded at a deserted station with a dangerous AI that’s determined to eliminate you. There’s no one to turn to and no assistance available.
This game isn’t just scary—it’s truly terrifying. I’d been anticipating its release for years, and it’s exceeded all my expectations.
Good news for fans – the developers are still committed to this game and plan on releasing at least one more update! Plus, if you’ve been thinking about picking it up, Routine is currently on sale on Steam until December 18, 2025 – it’s going for just $22.49 right now. And even better, if you have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass, you can play it as part of your subscription!
