A Long December - Limited Edition (B GRADE)

$8.00

This listing is for a B GRADE physical release - There are minor imperfections (including but not limited to: wrinkled interior pages, printing inconsistencies, scuffs or dents in the cover) and as such the price has been reduced to reflect those damages.

It’s cold. So cold you can see your breath in the air before you as you trudge down the ice crusted road. Your fingers are shaking as you tuck them into your armpits, trying to glean the least bit of body heat to ward off frostbite. 

As you walk around a tight bend in the road, a dilapidated sign welcomes you to Glenn’s Hollow, population 72, “Home of the Timberwolves Hockey League,” established 1943. Taking in the view of the town, you shiver. 

You know it in your bones: You’re alone. There’s no one here to help you. And you’re going to die if you don’t find shelter and supplies, and find them soon.

A Long December is a game about the inherent will to live found in all creatures, even in the face of overwhelming odds. The major themes include isolation, fear, and overcoming the odds.

You are an average person with a basic working knowledge of survival tactics in a frozen rural environment. You’ve been walking in the freezing cold temperatures for hours, and you are tired and hungry. As you stumble into town, you realize two things: You’re alone here and, if you don’t find supplies and shelter, you are going to die.

A Long December is directly inspired by the video game The Long Dark, as well as the shows Alone and Keep Breathing, and the books I Am Still Alive by Kate Alice Marshall and Hatchet by Gary Paulson.

Please Note: I live with a dog and while he doesn’t spend much time in the office where I work, it’s almost inevitable that his fur will make it into your package. I will, of course, do my best to sanitize all products before they leave my house, but if you’re allergic to dogs, please take care when opening.
