A little taste of what looks to be a russian bioshock / f.e.a.r. type game with a little bit of s.t.a.l.k.e.r. mixed in (anacronyms :evil: ) for good measure. The story seems to be about a scientist who discovers a ship called the North Wind, with a nuclear cargo, trapped in the ice and goes aboard to find that something has gone seriously wrong. The crew seemed to have turned into some kind of mutants who feed off the cold and it looks like you'll spend the game unravelling the mystery of what went wrong.

Hailed as a Crysis killer (graphically) i predict its not going to topple the great one just yet but still gameplay-wise it looks promising and is likely to have that same weird and twisted eastern european atmosphere that made stalker so cool. 8)

^ One of the flashback scenes from early on in the game with your huskys pulling you towards the ship trapped in the ice at the north pole.

^ The frozen ship upon entering, with your stamina and heat meter in the bottom left corner. One look inside and i'd be straight back out tbh..

^ You have some ability to jump into the mind of any frozen seame.. err sailors ( ;) ) you find and go back in time to save them from death. Thats pretty impressive...

^ Navigating through the creaking ship with just a flickering torch, using any heat source you can to keep warm, whilst these mutants scamper around in the dark howling creates a tense and claustraphobic atmosphere.

^ Another flashabck scene as you approach the ship the ice around you begins to break. Must have been one heavy sleigh..

^ He's probably coming to steal your gloves.

^ Hey! get your own dinghy pal! this one's taken!
