So it's been over two years since I played this, and I decided to finally leave a review before uninstalling it (both things I thought I'd already done). I haven't revisited it, here is just what I'd said to some friends about it at the time. You play as Rune Knudsen, a 28 year old environmentalist/science nerd from Norway studying polar bears at an oil company's outpost in the arctic. The gameplay was a little weak, I found the complete lack of guidance frustrating to the point where I started following a walkthrough very early on to 100% it in one playthrough (3.7 hours according to steam) and the graphics are a little rough for its original release date, especially the cutscenes, but otherwise it was really good. Alright, that's it. I see it's free now, I really don't remember it being a free game so unless I'm misremembering that's new. It is absolutely worth the time to play if you don't mind using a guide, and I would happily recommend this game even if there was a price tag attached.

Nice little, enjoyable adventure game. great voice acting. -though the guy from Norway lost his accent. B-movie plot that seems faithful to NA mythology. no moonlogic. its not a must play, but i do recommend if your in the mood.
