The Thing Station Survival is a short 2011 Freeware Horror FPS created to promote the the prequel film to the original John Carpenter 1982 classic The Thing film, it was one of two freeware games made to promote the movie, the other being a tie-in event with Entropia Universe.

The game was unity-based and used to be able to be played online or downloaded and can still be downloaded from sites that have archived the original download.

Revolver

A Revolver is available and is called ".44 Calibre Magnum" in-game and is in slot 3.

Unknown FN FAL variant

Claimed to be a "FAL STG-58 Automatic Rifle" in the game's briefing screen, the player's slot 2 weapon is an unknown wooden FN FAL variant with an unusable launcher attached.

M2 Flamethrower

While claimed to be an M2A1-7 Flamethrower, the M2 Flamethrower appears as the player's default weapon in slot 1 and is seen being used by their unnamed character in third person at the start of the game, before the boss fight and in the special death animations when killed. It oddly re-uses the M79's holding and reload animations and each reload holds over a full minute's worth of holding down the fire button of fuel. (This also means the player's hand is clipping through the foregrip when held.) It can be identified as the M2 by having the foregrip with trigger from the M2, that isn't present wiht the M2A1-7

M79 grenade launcher

The M79 grenade launcher appear as the player's slot 4 weapon and the final firearm present. It is the only weapon capable of self-damaging the player, as the flamethrower's flames cannot hurt the player.
