SCP - Containment Breach is a game played by Markiplier.

Game Information[]

SCP - Containment Breach is a free-to-play, first-person indie survival horror game created by Finnish developer Joonas "Regalis" Rikkonen and initially released in 2012. Based on the collaborative fiction stories of the SCP Foundation wiki, the game puts the player in the shoes of D-9341, a Class-D test subject, during a facility-wide containment breach. The site's layout is procedurally generated, ensuring that each playthrough is a unique and unpredictable experience. The game's success led to further development over the years, transforming it from a "simple jumpscare fest revolving around SCP-173" into a more comprehensive horror experience.

Plot Summary[]

The game's events unfold at an SCP Foundation containment site, a secret facility dedicated to studying and containing anomalous entities. As D-9341, the player is initially sent to participate in an experiment involving the dangerous SCP-173. During this test, a catastrophic power outage occurs, causing a massive containment breach across the facility. The player must navigate the dark, randomly generated halls, avoiding numerous escaped SCPs, as well as the Mobile Task Force "Nine-Tailed Fox," who are attempting to re-secure the site. The game features multiple endings, with the final outcome depending on the player's choices, including which escape route they take and if they re-contain certain SCPs.

Gameplay[]

The core gameplay of SCP - Containment Breach is its unique blinking mechanic, which is tied directly to encounters with SCP-173. The player must maintain a constant line of sight on the entity to prevent it from moving, but is forced to blink periodically, providing brief moments for SCP-173 to advance. In addition to SCP-173, the player must evade other threats, such as SCP-096, which will relentlessly pursue and kill the player if its face is viewed. The game features a variety of items to aid survival, including keycards, first aid kits, gas masks, and the S-Navigator for mapping the facility.

Trivia[]

The game was created by Joonas "Regalis" Rikkonen, a Finnish developer who was initially inspired by the popularity of his earlier work, SCP-087-B.

The original game was built on the Blitz3D engine, which has since been improved upon by fan-made remakes and upgrades.

The game's success was instrumental in influencing Regalis to pursue a career in game development, later co-founding Undertow Games.

One of the more interesting aspects of the game is the backstory of D-9341, who is revealed to be a former Level 4 researcher for the Foundation who was demoted after an unauthorized experiment.
