Capsule
An hour of radar blips, held breath, and sound design that turns empty space into a threat. Wear headphones or do not bother starting it.
GamerScout Verdict
For patient headphone listeners who want dread over spectacle; skip it if trial-and-death repetition wears you down.
Compare Prices(3 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Capsule
Forty minutes in I cut the engines and just floated, because the static had changed pitch and I could not tell whether the thing making it was ahead of me or behind. Capsule hands you a radar sweep, a fuel gauge, and your own ears. That is the whole interface. You steer a small craft through corridors you never actually see, reading blips and the hum around them, and when you guess wrong the sound knows before the screen does. Saltsman and Arnott built this for headphones in a dark room, and it falls apart without both. It is short, repetitive by design, and learning a route by trial and death will lose people fast. Some endings feel arbitrary rather than earned. But the audio work does what almost no horror game manages: it makes absence frightening. Bring an hour, real headphones, and patience for a piece that refuses to explain itself.
