    Idea behind the game is excellent - survival, resource management, upgrades based on scavenging and leading / managing a team who you need to keep alive. A perfect combination for a gamer like myself. However implementation was poor - too many bugs, such that I was unable to complete one of the main quests (and could not obtain a vehicle - snowmobile), and no fast travel system resultingIdea behind the game is excellent - survival, resource management, upgrades based on scavenging and leading / managing a team who you need to keep alive.

Sad really. Expand

    It's like they deliberately ruined the game... A lot of bugs, too long and sometimes incorrectly complicated game-play, the problem of balance.

    Team survival is tough: that’s what Impact Winter teaches the player. Which is fun. But the slow-paced action, added to the lack of dubbing and a badly shaped interface will surely discourage most players.

    Seeing Impact Winter through to the end will be a struggle in itself. It is a shame that Impact Winter is filled with both bugs and design problems as at it’s core there are the makings of a brilliant title. For now though it is one to avoid unless you are willing to deal with the problems.

    With its stark whiteout visual style and effectively somber soundtrack, Impact Winter comes incredibly close to being a survival game that could be enjoyed by just about anyone. Until the developers make that one fix, though, it will remain a game with tons of potential marred by a fatal flaw.
