Let’s Play Near Death (Steam)

This is a really fun survival game that takes place in Antarctica. You are stranded with literally nobody around to help you out. You must survive and brave the cold darkness all by your lonesome, only talking to a friend via a computer at certain times. You’ve gotta go from base to base trying to collect items to fit onto the snowdozer so that you can use it to leave the base without freezing or starving to death. When I first played this I was expecting monsters to jump out and get me because the ambience of the game perfectly sets it up for that to happen. I won’t spoil if that happens here or not, but it is definitely a very gloomy game that sets the tone of desperation. Well done to Orthogonal Games on this project, I definitely hope they come out with more projects like this one!
