The Arctic Circle, Russian North Pole station ‘Pole 21’, 1968 -
Alexander Nesterov is a meteorologist sent to investigate the
final hours of the North Wind, an old nuclear ice-breaker trapped
in an icy grave. This steel beast once fought for its country, but
during a dangerous mission it drifted into an ice trap slowly
freezing to death every living thing on board.
Alex must fight against the intense cold by finding any remaining
heat sources as he investigates the final days of the North Wind
and unlocks the mysteries within. However, Alex is no ordinary
meteorologist as he possesses a unique ‘Mental Echo’ ability that
allows him to relive the final memories of the dead and change
their actions in the past, changing their future. Nothing can
prepare Alex for the truth he uncovers as he digs deeper into the
history of the ship.
Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason takes players on a terrifying trip
into the unknown as they explore the dark, frozen, claustrophobic
corridors and unlock the shocking secrets of the North Wind.
