13 itemsAbout the Game
Stranded in the aftermath of a passenger jet crash, you are the sole survivor in a merciless winter wilderness. Your mission: stay alive long enough to make it back to civilization — all while navigating this deadly environment in a unique card-based survival experience.
Journey through over 10 diverse environments, from the wreckage of the crash site to frigid rivers, abandoned towns, and vast, unrelenting winter terrain that will test every ounce of your survival instinct.
Hunt, fish, trap, and scavenge to find vital food and supplies — anything you can use to stay alive.
Craft campfires and wear the right gear to shield yourself from the biting cold.
Manage your Hunger, Thirst, Sanity, and Cold, constantly balancing your resources and energy to stay alive. Every decision you make can be the difference between survival and death. When you die, your save file is wiped — no second chances. But death isn’t the end. Each run earns you coins, which you can spend in the shop after death to unlock meta-progression cards and shape your next attempt.
