About the Game

The world has ended, but the storm remains. An endless cold snuffs out all signs of life and turns the dead into something else. Reality itself has frozen over, and it is beginning to crack. You have but one hope of defying death: the legendary Fountain.

Scavenge for supplies, manage scarce resources, fight the undead, and most importantly, stay warm. Every bullet, every match, and every decision counts.

Survive the blizzard. Reach the Fountain. The lives of your family depend on it.

Fear the Cold

Time is always ticking while facing the freezing winds of the blizzard. Manage your temperature by lighting fires, making for pockets of rest that allow you to plunge further into the depths of Aurburg.

Manage Resources

Scavenge abandoned locations to collect items that aid in survival, deciding what to keep given limited inventory space. Planning how and when to use items is key to success, as every resource is limited.

Navigate a Fractured Town

The apocalypse has left this world puzzling and fragmented. Use your map and your surroundings to orient yourself and plan your routes.

Fight for Your Life

The Husks of those who live after death yearn for the souls of the living. Weapons are needed to bring them down temporarily, but only one thing can put a permanent end to their misery.
