** [[TheBrute]] The Brute, which is the main monster. Physically the strongest of the monsters, able to knock down doors when pursuing you. However, it's also by far the noisiest of the monsters, allowing the player to hear it coming, and it's GlowingEyesOfDoom creates a red light wherever it looks that warns the player if it's just around the corner.
** [[TheEvilGenius]] The Hunter, the secondary monster with long fingers. Unable to open doors, it gets around through the Ship's vents. It seems to be attracted to electrics. It's also much quieter than the Brute, and the poor lighting of the ship means that by the time you see it, it may already be too late.
** [[LivingShadow]] The Fiend, the mysterious third monster which is still in development. At this point in time, not much is known about it, but the developers have stated that it "plays on more malevolent tropes like serial killers and the supernatural".

* AirVentPassageway: One of the monsters is incapable of opening or breaking down doors, so it uses the vents to get around instead.
* CreepilyLongArms: The same monster also has very long arms combined with CreepyLongFingers that would be better described as ''talons'' that mean it doesn't have to be physically strong to kill you dead.

* MonstrousHumanoid: Bordering on HumanoidAbomination for one monster in particular.

* NeckSnap: The golem monster's preferred method of killing you.

* RockMonster: One of the monsters chasing you is a massive {{Golem}} type thing that looks like cooled lava, complete with GlowingEyesOfDoom that can give you a warning that he's nearby- if the stomping doesn't tip you off.

* TheManyDeathsOfYou: Getting caught by one of the monsters treats you to a game over screen with an image of exactly what happens to the protagonist right after getting grabbed.

* FeaturelessProtagonist: Being in first person the play never sees their own face, but even in the game over screens depicting the protagonist, their face is obscured.

* GameOverMan: If you die to one of the monsters, they appear in the game over screen.

* FeaturelessProtagonist

* MultipleEndings
