- 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 teased so far has shown some survival mechanics - like cooking! But there's not been much detail released otherwise. UI elements on the screen showcase food, water, and temperature- alongside a fourth element that could represent an 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!
Changelog

- 12/22/22- The entire team was let go right before Christmas, so I suppose the game is dead in the water? There have been no updates on the situation.
