About Help Will Come Tomorrow
In an uninhabitable Siberian wilderness, in a wake of the October Revolution, a group of passengers survives the mysterious catastrophe of Trans-Siberian railway train. They must endure in a harsh ice-clad climate until rescue arrives. Facing many dangers, their own weaknesses and, above all, their own prejudice. People from different social classes have to unite and make decisions that often go against their beliefs, either by putting them to the test or by completely breaking them. Will they survive and at what cost is only up to the player.
The basic mechanics of the game will focus on the survival of the characters (meeting their needs, gathering resources, expanding the camp, taking care of security, exploring surroundings), but the player will quickly find out that in order to win, he needs much more: to learn the personality of the characters and work out relations between them, mitigating conflicts and taking care of the morale. You may choose to act selfish but it is cooperation that will allow you to win and keep a clear conscience.
In Help Will Come Tomorrow you will:
• Overcome class animosities between your party members in order to survive in an innovative class relations building system.
• Manage scarce resources and stay alive in frosty wilderness of Siberia before help arrives.
• Guide 9 unique characters coming from different social origins and grouping in three society classes
• Discover intimate stories and past of all party members
• Build and expand your own camp to increase the chances of survival
• Face dynamically changing weather conditions and unforgiving Siberian wildlife affecting survivors life.
• Experience in-game Event system based on characters relations and morale
• Immerse yourself in a touching story set in 1917 pre-Bolshevik Imperial Russia

7/10 [h1]TL;DR[/h1] A very challenging roguelike survival game that keeps you on your toes until you learned on what to focus in the beginning. The game loop is satisfying but becomes a bit repetitive after the ~10th run. -------------------------------- [h1]Pros:[/h1] [h2]Overall look and feel[/h2] [list] [*] Beautiful art style [*] Good music [/list] [h2]Gameplay[/h2] [list] [*] Even on the "Survivor" difficulty (second hardest) you are gonna get your *** handed to you if you haven't figured out yet what to prioritize, what nets which benefits, where to get which resources from and the basic mechanics of the game [*] On the "Resident of Siberia" (hardest) difficulty you start with way way way more negative effects [*] A good selection of random events during exploration [*] Achievements are decently challenging even on the easiest difficulty [*] Gameplay loop is very satisfying: Always a lot to do and barely enough APs to achieve it [*] Each character has their own set of potential traits, but it is somewhat RNG whether you discover those in the current run. Traits are incredibly important to preserve valuable APs and resources [*] Ability to select with wich characters you st…1 found this helpful
Probably the best quality game I've ever played. Devs of all games are always lazy. They save money and do hack jobs to one degree or another. But here I'm shocked at how believable are conversations and stories of these characters. And what surprisingly rare (not massively well-known) topics they discuss. The shooting of workers at the gold mines. That's Okay, if this game would be created in Russia. But how the hell can the Poles know about this shooting? This is a not mass-well-known story. In general, I am shocked not only by the quality of the game and especially by the quality of the written conversations and personal stories of characters, but I am also shocked that this absolute masterpiece was made by... Poles! The Poles have done something where Russians don't look like parody clowns, but incredibly realistic and believable characters. I take off my hat. This game is the greatest masterpiece.1 found this helpful
Very interesting survival game, with a political twist of seeing the entire cross-section of Russian society at the time of October Revolution.1 found this helpful
Nice and challenging mechanics for strategy admirers.
This game has a lot of potential and it is enjoyable. It's not an easy game, but it is fun to see how 4 totally different persons can group and and try to survive together. I do have a few issues with some of the mechanics: - sometime the random gods are just working against you: everything fine in the night, wake up next morning and character X died - the choices during some conversations don't make much sense (and then cay sometime lead to very negative results all of the sudden)
The visual novel love child of This War of Mine and Frostpunk. Huge bummer 👍🏽
