The Verge: Near Death is a tense, fantastic game about surviving AntarcticaThe Verge took a look at Near Death, and they loved it!
[quote]Near Death, a first-person survival game released this summer, is easiest to describe in terms of the things it’s not. Taking place in an abandoned Antarctic research base in the 1980s, Near Death shares a setting with John Carpenter’s The Thing — but it’s not a sci-fi or horror game. Its main mechanic is avoiding death by crafting and scavenging, but it’s not a survival simulator. It’s made by Orthogonal Games, creator of character-driven indie project The Novelist — but it’s not a game about exploring other people’s lives. It’s a tense, lean, and tightly paced exercise in endurance, and one of my favorite games of the year.[/quote]

[ 2016-10-22 19:01:40 CET ] [ Original post ] During an emergency winter flight your plane crashes near an abandoned Antarctic research facility in the midst of a deadly blizzard. Cut off from civilization and with no hope of rescue, you must explore Sutro Station and scavenge for the means of escape while enduring blinding whiteouts and temperatures 100 degrees below zero.
Never more than a few minutes from freezing to death in the darkness of polar night, you must reclaim the station from the elements and fight for your life in a terrifying environment that's more like another planet than the world you know.
Features
- Unique gameplay suited to the harsh realities of a frigid, dark continent. Create light trails to mark your way in zero-visibility storms. Melt frozen doors and obstacles to explore the base in search of supplies. Find temporary warmth with your portable heater. These are just some of the abilities you’ll use while exploring and escaping Sutro Station.
- A dynamic weather system that uses snow, wind, temperature, lighting, and more to create a multitude of Antarctic conditions ranging from brief moments of calm to raging winds and blinding whiteouts.
- A realtime temperature simulation that dynamically freezes and thaws the environment room by room, based on exposure to the elements, building layout, and the base’s power system. As the player, you’ll repair damaged areas and protect them from the elements to create pockets of safety and expand your reach.
- A fully explorable Antarctic research station with seamless open world navigation over an unforgiving landscape.
