Venture into the harsh, unforgiving wilderness of Alaska in Edge of Sanity, a Cthulhu-inspired 2D survival horror game.
It is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. You can thank Daedalic Entertainment and Vixa Games for putting it together.
In this psychological survival horror, players take on the role of Carter, an ordinary worker whose mind is slowly unravelling as he leads a group of rescued survivors in a desperate battle for survival. Set against the backdrop of the wild, players will face eldritch horrors, manage dwindling resources and confront their own growing madness.
Explore, scavenge and survive
In Edge of Sanity, players explore remote areas of Alaska, scavenging for supplies and seeking out other survivors. Each day is a brutal fight for survival, as limited food and resources force players to make difficult choices.
Whether you’re exploring hostile caves, forgotten mines, or hidden laboratories, every decision you make will impact the group’s ability to survive. Prepare for both main and side expeditions to ensure the safety and well-being of your fellow survivors.
Survival against the twisted creatures of the Alaskan wilderness requires strategy. Players must learn their enemies’ weaknesses, impair their senses and use their surroundings to gain an edge. Crafting and resource management are crucial, but when all else fails, sometimes an axe is the only option. However, be warned – direct combat can have lethal consequences.
