Buy A Week in the Cold PC key

A Week in the Cold follows Elin, who is stranded in a frozen wilderness with no memory of how she got there. You guide her across slippery ice as she tries to get home, avoid a strange wolf and keep from collapsing in the cold. She seems caught in an endless loop, with no choice but to keep moving forward.

Survive the cold

Keeping Elin warm is essential. Watch how she reacts to the cold, and warm her feet when a campfire is nearby. The game provides no UI information; you navigate using your own wits and memory, along with small inputs from Elin.

Cross the ice

Sliding on the ice can be dangerous: once you enter a slide, you cannot change direction or stop, so you need to aim carefully to avoid getting wet. Finding skates lets Elin turn, though she is a novice and still cannot stop. Watch out for playful penguins and other animals, which can be dangerous if you collide with them.

Face the wilderness

A strange wolf can appear without warning and chase Elin. You can choose whether to tackle a level by day or at night. Many animals sleep at night, but the darkness can make it difficult to see.

The game can be difficult and frustrating. You cannot save whenever you like; saves are only available at campfires.
