About the Game

An apocalyptic Ice Age is creeping toward your convenience store, and survival hangs in the balance. In this short narrative-driven adventure, you’ll take on the role of a store clerk facing a frozen future where currency no longer matters.

Every interaction is a chance to barter or scam your way to what you need. Resources are scarce and morality is flexible, but in the end, the toughest choices will be the ones you make about yourself.

Players will enjoy over 12k words of narrative in this game. 

Key Features:

  • Barter for Survival: Trade or deceive your customers to collect supplies.

  • Moral Dilemmas: Face difficult choices that will shape not just your survival, but how you see yourself in a dying world.

  • Multiple Endings: Your decisions affect the story, leading to multiple outcomes based on how you navigate the harsh new reality.

  • Community vs. Selfishness: Decide whether to help others or prioritize your own survival—each choice has its consequences.
