About Northern Lights
Northern Lights drops you into the frozen Siberian wilderness with nothing but your wits, forcing you to hunt, fish, craft, and fight off predators while managing your hunger, temperature, and sanity to survive. With four difficulty levels and a dynamic island filled with dangerous wildlife and abandoned locations, it's a hardcore survival experience where every decision determines whether you live another day.

You find yourself helpless in front of the unforgiving Siberian wilderness without any food or equipment. In an attempt to find a way out of the island, you are forced to embark on a dangerous journey that will test your survival capabilities beyond your imagination.
There is no manual to show you how to survive. Your success depends on getting out there and using all your abilities to master necessary wilderness survival skills.


- Survival Mode: Survival is your only goal, and death is your biggest impediment. Will you live to fight another day?
- Choices & Outcomes: Keeping your stats under control is crucial. Not keeping your Hunger, Hydration, Body Temperature and Energy in balance can have repercussions on your in-game Sanity.
- Only the strongest can survive: In Northern Lights you will find a wide range of activities you can do. Be ready to hunt, fish, scavenge for food and gear items, start fires, craft items, and most importantly, endure the harsh environment with its predators and the variety of possibly deadly afflictions you could contract.
- Be the hunter or become hunted: Diverse wildlife, ranging from ferocious predators such as Bears and Wolves to non-threatening animals such as Reindeer, Moose, Foxes, Boars and Hares.
- A broad and animated world: A beautiful yet frightening island that contains a delicate balance between pure nature and an abandoned world composed of a variety of locations.
- Pick your challenge: You can choose between four difficulty scenarios, made for every kind of player, from beginners who want to explore the world in peace to skilled survivors who wish to experience a hardcore challenge.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
This game had so much potential. Its a real shame its been abandoned...SOOOO much you guys could have done to make it one of the best! Sorry I just cant recommend!8 found this helpful
In my opinion, the game is definitely worth recommending. This is especially true for players who appreciate survival gameplay focused on surviving in harsh conditions. The game has great potential. The mechanics of crafting individual items, the mechanics of hunting and gathering food, the aspects of disease, frostbite, and loss of mind all contribute to the atmosphere and the feeling of fighting against nature. We also have variable weather conditions, which I really enjoy. There's a story mode, but also the option to play in survival mode. We can adjust the difficulty level. I'm only at the beginning of the game and exploring the map (10 hours of gameplay), but I already think the game is definitely worth recommending. There are issues and minor bugs, and you can't ignore them (in this case, contacting the developers on Discord can be helpful). The graphics aren't great either, but that's not always the point in games like this. Personally, I recommend the game and rate it 7/10.3 found this helpful
Really good since last update.Would definetely recommend on special offer.2 found this helpful
Looks like the developer did finally Updates and fixes. Grabbed for 4 Bucks and cant understand the mixed reviews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BjrpW0w5sg2 found this helpful
A good attempt at recreating The Long Dark. Not quite scary enough without the severe penalties for making a mistake. Doesnt seem to ramp up as you survive longer so it gets easier rather than harder as you go along. Certainly worth the play.
I love the game but its slow development makes it hard to recommend without a warning.
