The future of humanity in space is under your control as you manage a moon base in the shadow of Jupiter. Will you play the political mastermind or rise above the fighting factions?

Lies Under Ice is an interactive science-fiction thriller by Joey Jones where you take on the role of the protagonist.

Build a scientific outpost on Europa, exploring the moon and the alien life that lurks in the vast ocean under the icy crust. Build a sprawling tunnel complex in the ice or bring about climate change to terraform Europa into an ocean world. Share your alien findings, or capitalise on the research for profit. Be a paragon of the human race or transcend the human form entirely.

Play as a female, male or non-binary president, captain, or commander: it's your base... until re-election!

• Play as one of six unique character professions: diplomat, aerospace engineer, asteroid miner, pilot or marine biologist.
  
• Come from one of three distinct geopolitical backgrounds, each with their own separate intrigues: the ever-shrinking United Earth, the old-world Group of 81, or the fractious Libertalian Alliance.
  
• Decide what animals to bring to space: experience a catsplosion of kitties, or be over-run by escaped lobsters? It's your call.
  
• Develop the base your way: prioritise the comfort of the workers, or try to maximise the scientific output; build luxury domes, mazes of ice tunnels or try your hand at terraforming.
  
• Involve yourself in romantic entanglements with your co-workers, or strike it alone.
  
• Develop your out-of-work hobbies. After all, you never know when astronomy, cooking, poetry, lucid dreaming and more, will come in handy.
  
• Make friends and enemies among the different political, scientific and corporate factions: you can't please everyone all the time, who will you favor?
