Spent a good year casually playing the story expansion for this survival game, Wintermute. Thoroughly enjoyed all four episodes and I wish there were more survivalist games like this that were light touch with the sci-fi elements. Not a big fan of the genre but this just felt right.

The mechanics of surviving this cold apocalypse are really well thought out and gives you many different playstyles. I haven't yet tried the Survival Mode which for many is the meatier experience but the crafted narrative was what I was looking for. That said, these elements were sometimes a frustration when in part due to scripted timber wolf encounters but still the rest of it made up for these "danger" moments. I'll consider this completed for now but will definitely return
