About the Game

ENDURE

A first-person survival horror game set on an Arctic shipwreck. Scavenge wood, manage your fire, patch hull breaches, and survive a predator who learns, returns, and never forgives. One scenario, one true ending, and a dozen ways to fail. Can you endure long enough to escape?

ENDURE HER

At first, she is patient, testing you and your shelter. She circles the wreckage in the dark, waiting for the right moment to strike. The closer you are to escape, the more aggravated she becomes. Each hull breach is deliberate, with the next visit always worse than the last. She won't stop; she won't tire. The only question is: can you figure her out before she finds you?

NO SHELTER FROM IT

Every hole she leaves behind is another way the cold gets in. The Arctic doesn't need an invitation because it was always there, waiting. Your ship is the only thing standing between you and death, and she is taking it piece by piece. A torch can slow the cold, but it cannot stop it. Neither can you. All you can do is hold on long enough.

NOTHING TO SPARE

Holding on takes wood, and wood is all you have. Scattered across the ice, the wooden remains of your ship litter the ice from that fateful night. Every piece you pick up is a decision: fuel the fire, patch the hull, or repair your way off the ice. There is never enough for all three. Get it wrong and the cold finishes what she started.

FEATURES

FIRST-PERSON SURVIVAL – Navigate a crumbling Arctic shipwreck where every shadow and sound matters.

A LIVING THREAT – Daisy patrols, hunts, and escalates. Learn her patterns, or she'll learn yours first.

RESOURCE TENSION – Every piece of wood you find must be allocated neatly: fuel your fire, patch your hull, or push toward escape.  

MANY WAYS TO DIE, ONE TO WIN – Let the fire die, and the cold takes you. Let the hull go, and she finishes the job. Survive both long enough to get off the ice.

SHORT, SHARP, REPLAYABLE – A full run takes around 15 minutes. Mastery is the goal.

LOOP

Scavenge wood from the wreckage scattered across the ice. Decide instantly: burn it, board it, or save it for the sled. Watch the hull. Watch the fire. Watch for Daisy. Repeat until you escape... or don't.

 

SCOPE

ENDURE is a single scenario with one true ending, but getting there is harder than it sounds. Daisy's behavior, resource availability, and your own decision-making under pressure create a different run each time. Die enough ways, and you'll start to understand the game. Understand the game, and you'll want to go faster.
