This is a horror-themed Walking Sim. It involves giant spiders, and some dude who keeps constantly trying to knock you out and kidnap you. Graphics are pretty good, and typical of a 2016 game made with CryEngine. The dialogue is in Russian, but 99% of it has English subtitles. You are walking through an environmental wasteland, supposedly from climate change. It's raining most of the time, and towards the end snow covers everything. There's a green mold or algae growing over everything because of the constant wetness. Outside is overgrown with plants, as you'd expect with not many humans around. Inside buildings is always dark and usually wet. Since you and the dude stalking you seem to be the only humans in this vicinity though, you have to wonder who is lighting all the many lanterns you find along your way, shining just enough light to let you know you're going the right direction. Strangely enough, every now and then you'll find gasoline and working electricity when you need to open a mechanical door or fire up a generator. You don't have a flashlight, but one would have been nice since inside all the buildings is so dark. You also don't have any inventory or any weapons. There are little garden gnome statues located in several places. The dev ( or devs ) seem to have some sort of weird fascination with them. The game has 52 total achievements, and they do count on your Steam Profile. The main game has 31, a built-in DLC has 3, and the free downloadable 'Survivor Update' DLC has 18. It will probably take you a couple of play-throughs to get all 52 achievements, because you can miss some of them. *WARNING: The 'Survivor Update' DLC replaces both the original game levels and the game menu, so do NOT even install it until AFTER you've finished the main game.* Many things in the story do not make sense, and are not explained. So as a player, you'll have to settle for the graphics, the dark brooding atmosphere, and the post-apocalyptic immersion. Finally, the game ran perfectly fine for me. I experienced no bugs, lag, or jank.

Game concept is actually very good, totally worth 79 cents, but i ran into a bug that made it unplayable after about 17 mins of gametime

Imagine a walking simulator with a bit of Stalker, Amnesia and The Road (by Cormac McCarthy) as atmosphere. That's the feeling this game gave me, and it's pretty cool. There's not much to do and it's pretty linear, but for the price this game gives really good wandering vibes in a desolate world. So that's a yes for me.
