To survive, you need to keep a keen eye on your body temperature, hunger, thirst, and exhaustion. Every action has consequences – even sleeping. The Long Dark is about managing your time and resources, which makes for a tense trek across a beautiful, snow-blanketed wilderness known as the Great Bear. With its hyper-realistic mechanics, this difficult-but-satisfying survival game plunges you into the depths of a harsh Canadian winter.
Danger lurks around every corner, and you can succumb to death in even the calmest moments.
If The Long Dark teaches you one thing, it’s that the wilderness is terrifying but beautiful.
