About Escape the Charon
 

Escape the Charon is a sci-fi adventure. An ancient alien artifact has been brought to the space station Charon - soon after, the Charon goes dark. James West must search for clues and solve the mystery to discover what went wrong.

The object was discovered in a desert on a dying planet at the edge of the galaxy. When an archaeological team unearthed the monolith, its unknown hieroglyphs gave them chills - could this be the work of the ancients? They enlisted the help of Andrea West and her team on the space station Charon to uncover the mystery of its origin.

James West was piloting his ship to Earth for a much needed leave. "Message received from Andrea," the computer chimed. He turned on his Neural Link Device and smiled as he opened the message.

"Jimmy, I need help. Something went terribly wrong! Can you..."

The rest of her words were cut off. He immediately set course for the Charon.

"I'm coming, sis"
