"You are a convict, tasked with exploring this anomaly, in a makeshift submarine nicknamed The Iron Lung. It was not designed for this depth, so you will be welded inside and the forward window will be closed.


There was no time for training.


If successful, you earn your freedom."

- The text that greets the player upon starting a new game.

The Player is the main character of Iron Lung, and is a prisoner of the Consolidation of Iron, likely forced into the Conviction Realization program after the attack on Filament Station. They are the single pilot of The Iron Lung, and are tasked with photographing certain points of interest around the blood ocean of the moon AT-5.

History[]

Due to the Iron Lung's inability to survive such high pressures, the front window is sealed, leaving the player blind. The player must rely solely on pictures captured and coordinates and a map to find their way around the seabed. As the player travels, the oxygen levels of the Iron Lung drops, fires start, and the floor of the ship fills with blood. The player encounters the Monster several times before being ultimately killed by it when, while the player is trying to capture the final photograph, the Monster breaks through the back hull and destroys the Iron Lung.

Trivia[]

  • The player's fate is unchangeable, no matter what order you take the photographs in, the Monster will always kill the player right before they take the last photograph.
  • The blood levels in the Iron Lung never rise above knee level.
  • It is strongly suggested that the player was never meant to survive this mission.
  • The player likely was a part of Eden, and was captured after the battle on the Filament Station.
