This is always the true test That Which Gave Chase is a first-person atmospheric horror game, where the retro PSX graphics give pixelated life to Aslak Karlsen Hauglid's baleful story. You play as a nameless dog musher escorting a scientist on an expedition into the frigid wilderness of the Arctic. Along with the cold, suspicions and mistrust soon begin to creep in. The reason behind this expedition, as well as its eventual fate are both things that only time will tell. The game has an amazing story, so I will avoid giving more details about its plot now. Some of my thoughts on the game's story and specifically on the ending are written in the comments below. Feel free to read them if you have already played the game and I am more than willing to discuss about it. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3607232513 The sum of a half remembered feeling and a long forgotten dream With an atmospheric slowburn narrative, That Which Gave Chase is mostly linear, with exploration being limited but rewarding. Small tidbits of lore are available for the player to find out during various sections. While the game's progression is linear, the story is not: jumpcuts are random and frequent. They are also a source of constant uncertainty and anxiety, greatly enhancing the horror aspect of the game. As the dread builds up, the tension becomes almost unbearable. An ominous feeling gave chase with the game's start and it followed me well after the credits had rolled. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3607234646 Remember, you were so eager to chase the answers. How long will it take you to realise that the answers have been chasing you back all this time? Before the cold lulls you into sleep, try hard to listen through the noise. You might be able to faintly hear yourself failing the test, again and again. Until the fear and the doubt are gone and you have passed through the sieve. Until the chase is over.

I got this when I saw that Wendigoon made a video about it, then realized I can pet the sled dogs. Instant 10/10. What else do you need?

I saw the new upload from Wendigoon and just from the first couple of minutes, I knew I wanted to play this. I stopped watching and picked it up since I wanted to experience it firsthand. I love the vague nature of the story and character(s) and the isolated feeling the entire game left me feel uneasy in a good way. So bravo and I would to see more of this caliber of games from you in the future. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch Wendi's video now.

Just watched Wendigoon's video on this game and it reminded me how much I enjoyed it. 100%'d it in ~2.5 hours with 3 playthroughs, and while that might not add up to the "$1/hour of play" metric, the experience is definitely worth the $5 price tag. It's been about a year since I played this last, and because I'm revisiting it now, I plan on replaying it again tonight after the sun goes down. Very atmospheric, thought-provoking, creepy. Unique. An experience that will stick with you. Leaves you with questions. The aesthetics are perfect, the PS1-esque graphics compliment the harshness of the world you traverse. A great horror game that doesn't overstay its welcome, though admittedly I do wish it had lasted a little longer. I hope the developer makes more games like this. I think it would be very hard to replicate the feelings you get from playing this game for the first time, and it could even cheapen the experience to try and do the same thing again, but I think Aslak Karlsen Hauglid has a great sense of psychological horror and is capable of creating an equally unique and worthy experience. I will certainly be playing his next release. Highly recommended.

Maybe its because I recently read The Terror by Dan Simmons, but playing an isolating game in the arctic was exactly the feeling that I was still looking for. While I don't think this game does anything exceptional, it does nail the uncertainty, loneliness, and unease that I desired from The Terror.
