Icy, the post-apocalyptic game taking place in a new ice age, will be released next week. This is what the new publisher Digital Tribes informs us of in a press release.



A NEW ICE AGE HITS THIS JULY

STAMFORD,CT, July 1, 2015 - Inner Void Interactive teams up with DIgital Tribe Games to proudly announce the upcoming Steam release of ICY - a narrative-driven, survival, RPG set in a post-apocalyptic frozen world. Prepare to get chilled to the bone during one of the hottest months of the year when ICY launches on Steam July 21, 2015.

In ICY, your life and the lives of your followers hang on every decision you make. You begin by creating your own character using a detailed stats system that influences your abilities to Hunt, Travel, Scavenge, Communicate and Lead, then begin a journey of survival across the White Wasteland.

It is up to you to take on the responsibilities and lead your new-found nomad family in their fight for survival. Do not take your role lightly for each decision you make, each word you speak, ripples through the lives of your community.If your words fail you, pray your weapons aim true.
In addition to the elements and wildlife you encounter there will be weird loners, friendly cannibals, mutant cults, slave traders and spiritual tribes along with all sorts of other miscreants to deal with. Decide well on who to trust and how to react or the snow covered landscape will become your icy tomb. You just better hope that your mouth doesn't write a check that your ass can't cash. Key features:


  • Experience an intense and mature story of survival in a unique post-apocalyptic new ice age setting.

  • Influence the plot with your choices, with numerous shades of morality that lead to multiple endings.

  • Lead a group of survivors, each one with different needs, values and ideals.

  • Scavenge for items and hunt for food while facing the challenges of starvation, illness, harsh elements as well as other bands of survivors.

  • More than 400 pieces of detailed hand-drawn artwork help paint the backdrop for the story.

  • Customize your character by choosing how to distribute attribute points among 3 main character traits and 10 different skills that affects your abilities and experience through the entire game.


ICY will be launching on Steam for Windows PC and MAC July 21, 2015.

I backed this game on indigo but I don't think I will have any time soon to play it :(

Even if I did play it, I don't think I am good at writing reviews :lol:

I would have been interested, but since I joined the working class I barely have time left to play at all...
This is definitely on my watchlist, though.
