  Immersive light exploration of a post-apo frozen earth is on the menu with a few immersive elements such as dialogue choices and "events along the way". The management part is light as well (ressource gathering, crafting and equiping your party) but doesn't get in the way of the node based exploration and well written narrative. Combat is quite original since it requires you to combine skills from your whole team into actions: Each turn you are given a set of skills randomly picked from your "skill bag" consisting of all skills of your characters and their equiped gear. Then you have to combine those skills (up to four at once) to generate your group actions for the turn. The result is quite convincing and i really enjoyed leading the group of survivors through the snow and dusty buildings.

  A nice little RPG set in a winter wasteland. Combat mechanics reminded me of a dice rolling game where you mix and match symbols to create combos. Story is fine with just enough weirdness thrown in to keep things interesting. I got it on sale and had a good time.

  Post-apocalyptic world. Bandits. Mutants. Cannibals. Slavery. Hoarded resources. A lawless world. Basically, the story is like Mad Max but with a frozen wasteland instead of a desert. A short, but fun survival game.

  A small but nice RPG with survival elements. The plot is nice, the characters believable, crafting is needed to survive, fights are a little chaotic but fun. I'm actually finding it better than I thought. Also, there are tattoed boobs in the game. Definitely a plus.

  Coming into this game I was excited to see the story it offered as well the amount of strategy that would be involved in the decisions you made. However after playing it for a few hours, sadly I was dissapointed by the mechanics in this game. The writing and story seems okay from what I can tell nothing amazing but it isn't terrible either. Where the game really takes a dive for me is in its mechanics. For example hunting and resting work completely differently then they do when you initially jump into the game. Where at first you have decisions as to how to hunt prey and when to head back and set up camp etc. Immediately after you're told when you stay and rest, and as for hunting, you simply move your group to the forest and are told what you found. The combat is even worse, your weapon types have next to no effect on the game other then damage, meaning whether you and the enemy both have guns or you have rifles and they have knives. You're still going to have to fight as the fight is forced until one group dies and on top of that both groups will take damage as well. It makes next to no sense and kills the immersion when your options are so limited. As for replayability the items you find are the same everytime it seems and isn't that feeling of maybe i'll find something here that I didn't last time or vice versa. Though I had high hopes for this game I can honestly say it's not worth the money, unless these issues get fixed.

  Good game. I actually liked the original for the price, but it had its faults. Devs spent time working on making it better, and then made sure everyone who had the original got the new version for free. Good on them. Some of the more ethical, hard-working devs I've seen on Steam.

  I'll start this off by saying that the first ICY was not a game I enjoyed very much. It was needlessly difficult, clunky, and obtuse and I gave up on it after a bit. Frostbite Edition fixes literally everything. Bugged dialogue, broken or wonky features, an adequate difficult range, interface fixes that are so massive it makes the game feel like a proper sequel. The combat system is really great, too, different but it services the game well. I never once felt unsatisfied whereas in the first iteration of ICY I absolutely hated combat, I avoided it at all costs and ended up uninstalling due to how user unfriendly it was. But in the Frostbite Edition I'd venture to say that I'm sad that I didn't get more game to play. The exploration, the quests, the characters, all of it was great! The only thing I could think about being added is a genuine system dedicated to companions. Romances, friendships, rivalries. The individual bits and bobs about the characters are great, though the randomized nature of the game at times makes it seem like you can miss things before the final battle and, potentially, lose a companion you have kitted out with valuable gear. It's an indie title with a lot of heart, great fun and an amazing story. Pick it up and play it!

  This game has some seriously awesome writing. The dev's worked hard developing and rounding out the characters and putting extra love into the lore of the story. It works and it works well. It was awesome to get Frostbite Edition because I owned the original. For some reason my play time in the Frostbite Edition doubles from 6 to 12 hours, and on moderate difficulty I died once, whereas in the original on hardest difficulty I breezed through. It's a good game, I'd love to see this do well and this publisher be able to take this game into a larger franchise like Wasteland 2.

  A very interesting survival game, one of those hidden gems. work has been put into it. the story is interesting and choices actaully affect gameplay and story. The dev's worked hard developing and rounding out the characters and putting extra love into the lore of the story. It works and it works well.

  I bought this game on, like, 40% sale, and wasn’t expect much from it. And… well, it impressed me. In some part. First, several hours of gameplay is just astonishing -The visuals (which, in this game, is mostly art) is just… terrifically wonderful. If someone put pictures for this game in a gallery, I’d totally pay for a ticket in. Seriously -Likewise, music is very good, and very… immersive, if a bit repetitive. While listening to it you really feel this cold, almost lifeless world… -And, dare I say, this world is quite well written. At the very least much better than most of post-apocalyptic worlds. Like bullets being currency, not some silly thing as the coke caps (Yep, I’m talking about you, Fallout) books being a very important thing (There is a very good quest just in the beginning, where the major of one towns send you to find a liturgical literature!), some of settlements and cultures really interesting and refreshing. -Atmosphere, in general, is just great. It makes you feel and act like you are really one on the very few survivors in a cold wasteland. -And many of the game’s mechanics support this: like, when hunting or scavenging recourses, you really try to get safe from danger, comparing risk and potential gain, not simply go adventuring in any corner of a map, like in many other so-called “surviving games” But then, as a story goes… it turn’s out it’s not much of a story here( -General plot is… generic. Will not spoiler it, but after some time you will just understand which trope is used here, and will basically lose interest. Also, moments like “you ARE doing this because the plot demands it” is to common and to frustrating. -Side quests are a somewhat better… but, again – quite generic, and mostly have only two variants -Characters… well, some of them look enigmatic in the beginning… but in the end neither of them turn out to be anything of interest. This problems combine with several gameplay one, like -Moving on the map is really messed up. You move from spot to spot, and it will be not once then you realize that there isn’t any spots between were you are an the point you want to get… so you will have to choose another path, praying that it is right. In a classic RPG it will be OK, albeit frustrating. But it is a survival game, and every step worth food… Eh( -Combat system is quite interesting and original, but in the end all the fights are either lost or won by your stats, and nothing you can do in the fight can change it. All in all, I’d say this game worth playing… but not sure, if it worth playing for more then 3-4 hours. But personally, I don’t regret money spent on this
