In The Blind is a sci-fi horror roleplaying game set aboard an isolated research station on Earth's edge in space where five independent contractors work precarious jobs to survive as they navigate dangerous and unpredictable conditions, including malfunctioning machinery, hostile environments like toxic atmospheres and asteroid fields. Players take on the roles of these workers while participating in various activities such as scavenging for resources, investigating anomalies detected by sensors monitoring unknown phenomena around them, dealing with debt collectors hired by creditors chasing overdue payments from their employers or trying to locate missing colleagues who may have gone overboard after losing too much money gambling and other debts. The game features a unique mechanic that involves CRT screens displaying text messages in real time during gameplay sessions while the players engage in role-playing activities such as negotiating contracts, stealing resources for profit, engaging with potential romantic partners or sabotaging their employers' work spaces to gain leverage against them when dealing with difficult situations like getting fired. The game takes inspiration from various works of sci-fi horror movies and TV shows including "The X Files," a popular series that has spawned numerous spinoff media adaptations such as novels, comics, video games, webisodes or podcasts in which the cast features some familiar faces who play their roles online
