If you want to admire more of the typography and great aestetic of Alien, the 2014 game Alien: Isolation is perfect for that.
It pretty much encourages you to explore it's decomissioned (and of course Alien infested) Sevastopol station, which is lovingly built to mirror the original movie aestetic and it's full of terminals and other lore pieces :)
Another game that leans heavily on the typography and general atmosphere of Alien is Duskers[0]. Most of the reviews I read before playing the game made direct comparisons to the movie.
I have probably a couple of hours into that game, before I got bored and gave up. In those few hours I have not seen a single alien. It's as if the game studio forgot the title of the game.
Oh AFAIK there is only one and you get to see quite too much of it considering you cannot really fight it, and the running from hiding place to hiding place...

As much as I loved the art direction, which I can only qualify as terrific, I greatly disliked the "running from closet to closet" gameplay...

I came here to mention the game. Currently dipping in and out of it on PS4. They nailed the atmosphere.
