What will you do when the food starts running out, officers begin to mutiny, and insanity, death, and terror start spreading on your deck? What’s more important, the good of many or the needs of one? How ought you to punish the poor souls who tried escaping the endless night on their own — or should you at all?

A breath of fresh air in the survival horror and strategy genres, Terror: Endless Night casts you in the role of the commander of a 19th-century relief expedition whose ship is trapped in the Arctic ice. Managing dwindling resources is the least of your problems once a perpetual night descends on your crew, drawing them slowly into the clutching embrace of insanity.

Terror: Endless Night is based on real-life events. In 1845, two English ships, the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror embarked on a scientific expedition to the Arctic under the command of Sir John Francis. When they vanished without a trace, a series of relief expeditions commenced. As the commander of one of those, you must learn the truth about Franklin’s voyage and find out what happened on the Erebus.
