There's a chill in the air with spooky survival horror Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason. Taking place in the Arctic Circle in 1968, players assume the role of Alexander Nesterov, a Russian meteorologist sent to investigate the final hours of the North Wind, an old nuclear ice-breaker shipwrecked in an icy grave.
The freezing cold has turned the inhabitants of the ship into freakish, frozen monsters that will hunt down anything displaying warmth and destroy it. Thankfully, Alex possesses a unique 'Mental Echo' ability, which allows him to relive the final memories of the dead and change their actions in the past. Like we said, spooky!
The player's aim is to prevent the ship's icy fate and the Captain's death using his 'Mental Echo' ability by correcting other characters' mistakes that have been made in the lead up the game's entry point.
Can Nesterov find out what happened on the North Wind or will he also become the latest victim of the freezing temperatures and suffer a similar and grisly fate?
