Professional reviews from gaming critics
There is plenty to enjoy about Arctic Awakening. Its writing and voice work bring the characters to life, and the mysteries of the abandoned facilities and plane crash are worth exploring. It's a shame that so much time is spent walking long distances to reach the next major story point.
Arctic Awakening is a genuinely good tale of mystery with some excellent audio that's unfortunately hampered by an overly long run-time and some nasty technical issues.
While Arctic Awakening feels very directionless in its plot and frustrating character writing, it's serviceable as a walking sim for fans of the genre who may enjoy its beautiful setting and interesting premise.
Arctic Awakening starts with a captivating mystery, but fails to stick the landing. The poorly developed story, lacklustre voice acting, and technical issues let down its potential.
