Interactions[]

Actions Requirements Effects Notes
Close it
You wrestle the hatch. The wind groans through the doorway.
A departure
The door shuts. How did it come to be open in the first place? Something is frozen in the crust of stellar ice at its lip: a single shoe.
Rare event (50%)
Damage
Afterwards, you examine the damage. You find pipes laced with hairline cracks. Somewhere, steam is whistling in shrill frenzy. You retreat, before a rupture scalds the skin from your bones.
Leave it
Let one of the crew deal with it. It was one of them that left it open, no doubt.
All is well
What's this? On the floor? A smudge of frost. It almost looks like a bootprint. How curious. You go about your business. The locomotive is draughty from the open hatch, so you don a coat and scarf.

Game note: Reduce your Terror by 50, but increase your Nightmares.
