Hard to tell if the ending is due to an episodic styling or if this truely is the ending.

The atmosphere is superb. The arctic research station is devoid of any companions yet quickly you realize that you are not alone. The question is who or what is there with you? An interesting game mechanic is that of the fear of the unknown via darkness and the safety of knowledge via illumination. Often the darkness is where death resides and will result in a quick death for the player. It makes the tension powerful and there are moments when the lights flicker that you fear for life itself. This is the sign of a high quality horror/survival gaming experience and there are several within the Black Snow mod.

There are some rough edges to be found. Some items are of questionable value and importance, but I believe their inclusion to be for background story development and ambiance. The locked computers are a strong example of this. Why have these locked systems be usable items without any purpose being served when other computer stations are not usable? Also, the computer user interfaces and the x-ray display are not the easiest to use. For the computer systems it was not too bad but manipulating the x-rays is a pain that I still haven't mastered yet. While this may sound like problems abound, they do not. I'm just explaining a couple of rough points that could use some refinement in an otherwise worthwhile experience.

Give Black Snow a go. I probably spent about three hours on it due to trial-and-error and backtracking primarily. I'm sure it can be completed in an hour with a bit of luck.

the ''space'' don't work to exit from the firts book and the computer,to exit from them i need to load the game ,because ''space'' don't work , i don't know why.

This game sends shivers down my spine with how creepy and amazing this game is!

Great Mod, I love the atmosphere like Carpenter's movie "The Thing" but the ending is too much "peculiar" after all those efforts .... In other words.... yep I'm already a fan of this game so please make a sequel ;-)

Very cool games. It is a lot like the Thing and that is a very good thing. Enjoyable puzzles, but can be hard at times to figure out what to do next.
