About Evil Mountains

Embark on a terrifying adventure in the Himalayan mountains where you play the role of a private detective who's mission is to find a girl that has gone missing after joining an alien-worshipping cult. After your flight crashes you wake up somewhere deep in the mountains of Himalaya and apparently you seem to have been the only one who survived. At first glimpse it seems like you are completely alone there, but soon you will discover that's far from the case. Your first mission will be to try to survive the best you can. You have to manage hunger and thirst, making sure you won't catch a disease, keep warm and build a shelter, tools and eventually construct your own home and make yourself settled since you will soon realize to escape from this place will be far from a walk in the park. Hunt, fish, collect berries, mushrooms and plants to feed yourself. Craft tools and weapons, armor, clothes, workbenches, shelter and sturdy buildings. Progress with attributes and perks, advance in cooking and crafting, craft more advanced items and tools, loot and explore and get yourself prepared, really prepared, to fight off both the wildlife and the mysterious evil that has infestated this God forsaken place. Will you ever manage to escape the evil mountains? Will you find the missing girl? But perhaps most importantly, will you survive?

I know this is EA but...............Wait until the full release. WAY TO MANY CRACHES AND GLITCHES! Your hard earned crafted items (workbench, saw bench, Power bank, Electrical panel, etc,) will VANISH if you have a hard crash before save. So frustrating after trying to love this game for 38 hours of struggle.

Sorry I can just not recommend this game. In EA since March 2025 and the game is too DARK. Feels like down no matter weather or time of day with no way to change that. Also you can die from food/water with no warning, not bad but then there is no way to find your stuff assuming it is there to be found. Oh well gave it a shot sorry I can not recommend it.

Do not buy! Not in this state. Currently, I cannot save and the inventory wont let me select anything due to some rapid clicking thing that is happening...

This game is one action away from actually being good and playable, and that is for rope to be craftable from fiber. Currently basic tools and basic shelter depend on rope, which again depend on a non-renewable resource and that is cloth. You have to run around the map to find enough cloth to even start the survival part. If rope is made from plant fiber, as it should be anyway, basic tools could be made and shelter to allow the first save and then all exploration goes from there. The game has many issues but they are forgivable and minor compared to this. I will not refund just hoping this simple mechanic will be added soon and then a true review will be done.

the potential is there. after making a few awful starts:drowning in the pool, starvation through lack of resources, non stop rain an so on. i managed to get started proper, until it started to rain again, then died. atm, fun and frustrating in equal measure. interesting and mysterious plot. looking forward to updates and perhaps a bit more FOOOOD! wishing this game all the success it is alluding to.
