The story opens aboard the multi-national space station Observation in orbit above Earth in the year 2026. Much of the game centers around the hexagonal cloud pattern that has been observed on Saturn. SAM may be instructed by the crew to perform specific tasks, and SAM can reply by finding the task element of interest (such as the status of a station module) and report back to the crew. The player, by manipulating SAM, can control various elements of the station, such as opening or closing hatches, activating safety systems and the like. Further on, SAM is provided one of several small spherical probes that allows it to move more freely through the station and into hostile environments harmful to the humans aboard, including outside of the station. Initially, the player's view is limited to where the crew have relocated SAM, but as the game progresses, SAM can move its core presence between several of the modules on the station and manipulate cameras and other electronically-controlled equipment in that module. The player takes the role of SAM (Systems Administration & Maintenance), an artificial intelligence software aboard a multi-national space station that serves to monitor the entire station. Observation was released for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on and for Xbox One on June 25, 2020. The game, described as sci-fi thriller, puts the player in control of a space station AI in order to recover from the sudden, mysterious loss of its crew. Observation is an adventure- puzzle video game developed by Scottish studio No Code and published by Devolver Digital.
