For an arctic island, I expected very little to explore and I was very wrong. There are a lot of landmarks, a surprizingly large map, simple relaxing soundtrack, farming, crafting, base building and secrets i do not want to spoil. The vibe is relaxing but a little melancholic, perfect for a calm evening. Perhaps a small in-game text guide would be nice to have in the character's device so the player could refer to for tips. I didn't like half the solar panels breaking every single day but i wholeheartedly recommend this game to people who like calm games.
Traveling across the arctic and managing your small base is a fun change of pace from more demanding survival games. The progression is enjoyable, although some parts can feel repetitive after a while. Overall, it's a cozy game that's best enjoyed when you're in the mood to take things slowly. Had a good time with it.
First things first, I named my sled-dogs Svanna, Svetlana, Angrboda, and Torbin- and they are the best doggos! The most striking feature of this game is the map- it's a large nearly flat snow-covered island of tundra, not that you'll see much grass; that makes all the landmarks features easy to see at long distances. It's no mystery that the primary gameplay loop is making your way over ice floes and past deep water to reach any and every landmark you can find. These are where you find the materials and blueprints to advance in the game. The other part is building a base where you can use your gathered materials to make money and advance in technology and utilities- in this way, just like the large landmark strewn map, it's very much like Subnautica, for the better. There's not so many different materials with which to craft so many different items- it's vastly simplified, and that's to its benefit, because there are only a few select items that are best for advancing in the game relatively quickly. The rest is an indulgence for the players sense of base-building and interior decorating. An interesting bit of gameplay design is that you can place "automated" extraction machines that basically "upload" materials to your inventory, but it's not an automation game like in Factorio- no conveyor belts nor trains for example... The main goal of the game is to find the question mark on the map, gather what you need through exploring, gathering, and crafting, until you can uncover the document-based mystery of the game. In the meantime, there's so many interesting sights that the island is like a museum of ideas, artifacts, and stories related to exploring and inhabiting the Arctic. A personal goal I strived for was, as an after-game reward, making a glider, so I could tour the island at leisure and enjoy the scenery.
