If you've been hearing the name R.E.P.O. thrown around and were wondering what it means, you've come to the right place. R.E.P.O. stands for Retrieve, Extract and Profit Operation. It's a co-op survival horror game that has been gaining a lot of popularity.

The name pretty much sums up what you'll be doing in the game. You and your friends play as employees of the R.E.P.O. corporation, and your job is to go to spooky, monster-infested places to retrieve valuable items.

What's the Goal in R.E.P.O.?

Your main goal is to complete missions by retrieving specific items and getting out alive. It sounds simple enough, but with all the different monsters lurking around, it's anything but easy. You have to work together with your teammates to survive and make it back to your ship.

I remember my first time playing, my team and I were tasked with retrieving a glowing artifact from a derelict spaceship. We were so focused on the objective that we didn't hear the creature sneaking up behind us. Let's just say it didn't end well for us that round. It taught me the importance of always watching your back in this game.

The "Profit" part of the name comes in when you successfully complete a mission. You get paid for the items you retrieve, and you can use that money to buy better gear and upgrades for your character. This is where the game gets really addicting. You're always striving to get that next upgrade to make your next mission a little bit easier.

My friend, on the other hand, loves the thrill of the risk. He once spent all his credits on a high-tech scanner that was supposed to detect nearby monsters. On our very next mission, he accidentally dropped it off a ledge while running from a horde of creatures. We still tease him about his expensive paperweight.
