ABOUT THE GAME :
ABOUT THIS GAME
Using the power of virtual reality, Song in the Smoke puts your survival directly in your own hands. Enter this dangerous world outside of time, where you must craft weapons, make clothes, build fires, and brew healing elixirs to steel yourself against its vicious predators. Whether you're either the hunter or the hunted, you can block, parry, and strike back with your club, or attack from a distance with your bow. True survivors will also need their wits to avoid some of the most lethal creatures that call this land their home.
The world of Song in the Smoke holds equal parts salvation and danger. Use your senses to stalk prey: track their smell, follow their footprints, and plan your strike. When you’re ready, intuitive and responsive VR controls let you execute the perfect shot—a shot that could mean the difference between survival and death.
The game uses a number of deeply-intertwined procedural systems, making every play-through unpredictable and unique. Animals seek water and shelter, while predators hunt for prey; as day transitions into night, the environment shifts and the creatures who inhabit it change their behaviors. A mystical narrative runs throughout the player’s journey as well, putting the experience into greater, transcendental context.
Song in the Smoke is a beautiful and harrowing survival experience. How long will you last?
Hunting: String bows to hunt your own prey, tracking their footprints and scents on the wind. Then hide among the ferns and bushes to line up the perfect shot, aiming naturally with your controllers before letting your handcrafted arrow fly. The player often takes the role of the hunted as well, requiring deft avoidance—or harrowing combat—to stay alive.
Foraging: Find food, water, and the raw materials needed to build shelter and fire, as well as craft weapons and other items is essential for survival.
Exploring: The wide open world of Song in the Smoke begs exploration, and moving through it requires curiosity and wit to unravel nature’s many mysteries. The song leads players forward, guiding them through this strange world and revealing a little more about the secret at its heart with each new discovery.
Maximizing Resources: If you make the kill, make sure nothing is wasted. Stock up on meat, bones, and skins that you can use to keep yourself warm as you move through the world of Song in the Smoke, travelling from lush forests, through ancient valleys, to frozen glaciers. A deep crafting design allows players to build weapons, tools, shelter and fire from the raw materials nature provides.
