Winter Survival | A Brutal Arctic Journey
69Hello Im Skill Incarnate and Welcome to My Games Review Series.
My reviews cover indie games that i have bought, had gifted to me and have been provided by developers for review. In this episode I check out another new Survival Game called Winter Survival. This game was released by Drago Entertainment, who also created Gas Station Simulator and was published by HeartBeat Games, the creators of the excellent Offroad Mechanic Simulator.
Winter Survival follows the story of a group of friends, taking a camping trip into the wilderness. However their trip goes terribly wrong with the group are separated and left injured by a wolf attack. Players will need to contend with the harsh elements, extremely scarce supplies, your own dwindling sanity and some of natures deadliest predators.
In order to make it out alive youll need to utilize your survival skills by scavenging for supplies, crafting makeshift weapons and tools, building a shelter to protect aginst the elements and evading the hungry predators looking to make you their next meal.... or you can turn the tables on them with a well placed trap or spear.
Winter Survival is a very detailed survival game and I loved the approach to managing your bodily condition and sanity. Unfortunately the game has several serious performance issues along with several bugs which resulted in a very unstable game experience for myself. My goal in this video along with showcasing the game, is to document the issues i found so that the developer can resolve them and place the game in a more playable state
Please note: All opinions in this video are my own. Game was provided by the developer for review purposes

================================================
What was supposed to be a nice winter hike in the Mount Washington State Park with friends, turned into a dire situation. You are left alone to fight for your survival. With only marginal supplies you have to fight off of the cold, thirst, hunger, wildlife and your own state of mind while finding your way to an abandoned ranger station in hope to be able to call for help.
Winter Survival is a fully fledged survival game even going into Early Access, with dynamic combat, stealth, base building and its unique sanity system just to name a few. Multiple game modes and difficulties allow you to experience the game differently and tailor it to your taste.
Venture through snow-covered forests, mountains, and frozen lakes. Grapple with treacherous terrain, deadly animals, and harsh winter conditions. Find shelter, cook meals, and rest, ready to face the next day. Hope it won’t be your last…
You are not the first person to visit this area. There have been many before you. More than a century ago some even lived here. If you explore your surroundings you may find things they left behind that will still be useful to you. Explore various areas and discover their story, like a town built by people who are long gone. Force open doors, avoid traps, and make abandoned structures work again. Find personal belongings as you dive deeper into the town’s past. Will you be able to uncover its secrets?
Cold, thirst, hunger and physical as well as mental exhaustion are the five major factors you have to worry about. It doesn’t however end there. Injuries and sickness are other factors and then there is the weather. Spending the night in the freezing cold without any shelter is akin to a death sentence and trying to go out in a snow storm isn’t any better either. Don’t forget, weather in the mountains changes quickly and is unpredictable.
Further variety comes in with our event system where random events can save your day unexpectedly or make the nightmare even worse. Things do not have to be that bleak or stay that way all the time. The adaptation system allows you to open up new survival skills and strengthen your abilities. And then there is our unique sanity system to make things really interesting…
