- Experience and explore a vast world, full of Finnish folklore, myth, and ancient shamanistic magic
- Build, settle, and survive in the idyllic but sometimes unforgiving, Finnish back-country
- Learn how magical attributes affect and intertwine with other character attributes and with the surrounding environment, the player’s actions, natural resources, and natural and supernatural creatures.
In game footage that's been teased so far has shown some survival mechanics - like cooking! But there's not been much detail released otherwise. There are UI elements on the screen that do showcase food, water and temperature- alongside a fourth element that could represent energy or mental state.
You can check out my breakdown of the available game footage- and my thoughts on everything we've seen so far- on my YouTube video breakdown!
Entire team was let go right before Christmas, so I suppose the game is dead in the water.
