I wanted to like this game, but after playing for several hours, I just... don't. Playing on PC, you can tell that this was a hastily done port job from console. It's clear that little to no effort was made to make this have a good user experience on PC other than "it runs." But beyond that, it's just... boring? There's a lot of trudging around in the snow, driving around in the snow, and using matches and firewood to protect your character from the snow. Ok, we get it. It's snowing. There's supposed to be a detective story here. The puzzles, such as they are, are so trivially easy that this plays more like a visual novel than an actual detective game. I am normally a completionist, but I don't know if I am going to force myself to finish this one.

The narrator system is genuinely smart — nudging you when you've missed something instead of leaving you clueless is exactly the kind of quality-of-life touch more walking sims need. Driving and snowmobiling both feel solid too. But the interaction design is a mess. You can pick up a hundred objects when maybe three actually matter, and the game happily lets you hoard hammers and saws you'll never use for anything. At one point I spent ages combing the entire map for sherry wine — something I could've just grabbed at the store — with zero indication whether I'd even need it later. And getting lost in the snow is way too easy; there's a middle ground between hand-holding with yellow paint markers and giving the player nothing, and this game just didn't find it. Solid game overall, but it broke a bit too hard from conventional design conventions that actually exist for a reason.

This one is a little janky, but i still love it very very much because of it’s setting and lore. Get it at a discount not worth 15€ imo.

Solid atmosphere and unique setting but slow, tedious exploration makes for a dull game overall Additionally, it claims to be "Verified" on Steam Deck but achievements are not earnable at all - extremely frustrating. Will be using an achievement manager to resolve this because a second, full playthrough like the one I've done, is not something I wish to do again.

Игра с вайбом зимы, своей историей но я брал из-за халявной платины, и всеравно чет не выбил. Мб игра хорошая(за лайкайте обзор плиз).

bon jeux. je recommande!
