The Zone Files is a collection of articles that describe the scene of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha.


We try to carry out comprehensive studies of the Zone. Our specialists and laboratory technicians are not only working in dusty laboratory facilities, but also carry out field researches. Some of the exposures cannot be registered in laboratory conditions, some "material" is simply unavailable. It happens that the response from the test subjects and from yourself can be noted outside only.
