This game sends a strong message which I like. Like another review posted for this game said though, the ending is a bit rough... I do understand its message though. One thing can be said for certain about this: it doesn't beat around the bush when it comes to climate change.

Great message, Lacking compelling story and any gameplay at all.

:) Good game

Regardless of why it's made and what it stands for, the game itself is a fun unique little game that I thoroughly enjoyed.

For one of the first games pushed publicly on steam by this developer I think it shows a large amount of promise. I know the developer is committed to sustainable change and this game, including its donations upon purchase, are a way for them to make change. For this reason alone I have to support this game. In regards to gameplay, I think that the game has a clear message which it effectively delivers. Personally, I would like to see any future games by this developer involve a more "hands on" active gameplay experience, as I found the game quite passive, in the sense that I was watching someone else's story instead of telling my own. To summarise, despite some shortcomings in regards to gameplay, Finding Ice is an impressive, quality game designed to deliver an emotive message to its audience.
