About the Game



You crashed on an island, your plane has a lot of valuable medicines and vaccines that will save hundreds of lives. Due to the injury and loss of blood, you will still die, but try to get to the lighthouse and at least give a signal so that you can find and use the plane with medical supplies. Try to complete the last worthwhile goal in your life, but don't forget about yourself - you need to get to the lighthouse, not freeze in the nearest ditch.



Realism - only you and cold wild forest, you should think twice before your every step
Survive - you can freeze and starve to death at any moment
Hardcore - only one life and do not forget you bleeding all that time
Explore - think over every step because there may not be food supplies or the nearest fire
Goal - you have a goal, and it's important, but can you achieve it?
