If you want to win in Project Winter, you have to be a people reader. Because lies and intrigue are part of the game and necessary to win.
Playing together is a nice thing. But eventually, everyone gets fed up with the harmony and friendliness and feels like causing a little mischief. For those who are good liars and have always wanted to betray their friends (at least in the game), taking a look at the game “Project Winter” might be worthwhile.
What is Project Winter about? In Project Winter, you start together with 7 other players in a frosty environment and must fight for your survival. You need to find food, search camps, and gather resources to survive in this inhospitable landscape.
The goal is to survive long enough and complete the necessary steps to call a rescue team that will then save you.
However, not all players are kind-hearted people. By chance, some players are chosen as “traitors” at the beginning of the round and have a different goal: to kill all non-traitors or prevent them from escaping. After all, there is a time limit before everyone freezes to death.
The traitors know each other, so they can act strategically. They start the match weak but gain strength through resources. After all, it’s easier to murder with a pickaxe than with bare hands…
Communication is key: However, players must also be good people readers to succeed. After all, those who want to gain the trust of their group as a traitor must be able to convincingly lie in voice or text chat to avoid drawing attention to themselves.
When will Project Winter be released? Project Winter will be released after several alpha and beta tests on February 7, 2019, and costs around €20 on Steam (link to shop page).
Who is Project Winter suitable for? If you have always enjoyed a few rounds of “Werewolf” by the campfire or already played “Deceit” on Steam, you will likely appreciate the gameplay of Project Winter.
Will you check out Project Winter after its release? Or do you not like such an intriguing gameplay concept?
