EARLY DEVELOPMENT (ALPHA) We still have a long road ahead and more exciting content planned! Subscribe to our Socials, visit our website, or join our Discord community for more info and updates about the development of the project. WHAT IS SCP? SCP originates from the SCP wiki , a community-run collaborative writing project that has been running since 2008. the acronym  SCP refers to Special Containment Procedures - and the wiki chronicles the tales and containment procedures of the so-called SCP Foundation.  About the Game The SCP Foundation has gone dark. Disturbing intel from one of the many Foundation sites, Area-12, an underground biological research and containment facility in West Virginia, has been forwarded to an anomalous branch of the FBI, the Unusual Incidents Unit (UIU). Upon arrival the UIU are ambushed and trapped within Area-12 by a facility wide lock-down, leaving you alone and without backup. For reasons yet unclear, Area-12 has adopted a new agenda: creating weaponized hybrids of anomalous creatures. Now the UIU must get to the bottom of “why” and stop them before these monstrosities are unleashed on innocent civilians. Anomalies are reality-defying objects, artifacts and creatures that inhabit the cracks in our world. These anomalies are what the SCP Foundation was supposed to contain; and their anomalous nature makes them dangerous to the likes of you.

The game features intense scenes of blood, gore, and graphic dismemberment. It also explores mature story themes, including terrorism, which are intended for mature audiences. We advise individuals who have experienced traumatic events to refrain from playing SCP: 5K.
