PROMYSEL

Life in the taiga

PROMYSEL is a survival sandbox for PC about living in the Siberian taiga. You inherit a partly rotted izba, far from the nearest people, and start with a knife, an axe and a hand line. There’s no story to follow or quest markers. You gather food and materials, manage the weather and rebuild your home, learning the forest through what you do.

Fishing and hunting

Fishing depends on finding the right place and time, and choosing suitable bait. Hunting hare with an old rifle takes patience: your arms tire, your breathing shakes the sight, and the hare can hear you. After a hunt, you dress the animal and bring the meat and pelt home.
