About This Game

Immerse yourself in the role of the Fox in this captivating dark fantasy adventure. Deep within an ancient valley cloaked in dense forests, you’ll discover the forgotten remnants of a dead civilization, interspersed by outposts of technologically adept pioneers.

Navigate through encounters with lingering spirits - some benevolent, others unwelcoming. Breathe life into frozen robots and decipher puzzles that lie along your path. Form an unexpected bond with a spirit trapped in an abyss, who will use ruptures in the world’s fabric to hurtle you between locations, evading the threat of death.

Your movements will be swift, your actions kinetic. As you uncover the hidden places and secrets of This Dead Winter, you’ll acquire abilities far beyond running, jumping and swimming. Dash across an otherworldly landscape, take possession of soulless machines, and see the world through a fox’s heightened senses. Every bit of aid will be necessary for your survival as you venture deeper into the valley.
