Scurge: Hive is a 2006 action-adventure game developed by Orbital Media for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS. Players control Jenosa Arma, a bounty hunter who becomes stranded inside a massive orbital research facility overrun by a parasitic organism known as the Scurge. The central tension is twofold: Jenosa must fight through the infected station to locate and eliminate the source of the outbreak while simultaneously managing the parasite's encroachment on her own body. This infection mechanic shapes the experience, placing pressure on the player to act efficiently rather than simply explore at leisure. The isometric perspective and confined space-station setting give the game a tense, contained atmosphere, blending combat and exploration as Jenosa pushes deeper into the facility in a race to contain the Scurge before it consumes her entirely.
