After a plane crash leaves survivors stranded in Alaska, you must endure the frozen wilderness alone or with an online group of up to eight players. The game uses an isometric view and centers on survival in a landscape threatened by extreme cold and dangerous wildlife.
Gather resources, hunt for food, manage hunger and warmth, and seek shelter when the weather turns. Explore the wilderness and search bunkers, laboratories, and abandoned facilities for supplies and clues.
Complete quests to investigate the crash and the area's mysteries. Improve equipment and your camp, craft useful items, and develop skills as you progress.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its co-op survival, wintry atmosphere, and the tension of managing food and warmth while exploring dangerous locations. Some also like piecing together the story through quests and environmental clues. At the same time, many reviews report bugs that can disrupt quests or cause items to disappear, and describe the world and activities as repetitive or unfinished.
