This was a fantastic little experience. The way you’ve tied the Expansion theme into a survival puzzle is brilliant, as every move feels weighted with consequence.
Expanding your camp out into the frozen wasteland to scavenge supplies is tense but also very rewarding once you manage to plan ahead and keep your group going.
The presentation is spot on as well. The stark limited palette and sparse snow effects nail the feeling of isolation, while the clean grid UI keeps everything easy to read without breaking immersion. I particularly liked how the different tiles each had their own character, from forests to hermits, adding flavour to the cold world.
The audio deserves a nod too. That chilly, glassy atmosphere is subtle but powerful. The way the music and effects combine makes the quiet stretches feel almost eerie. I’ve wrestled with atmosphere in my own projects before, so I can really appreciate the craft in how well it has been pulled together here.
