Taiga
Update Mar 2021 - The sole developer of the game, according to
his statement, has been (quite unexpectedly, judging by the tone
of his message) drafted into the Russian Armed Forces. My guess
as a former Soviet would be him suddenly dropping out of college
as a most likely reason. But I am not here to speculate.
Here is his message.
–——————————
An important announcement that you should know about. I, the developer of this game, was taken into the army until November 2021. Based on this, you have already realized that at this time I will not be able to continue development, and of course I will continue development with tripled strength when I return.

Essex: The Whale Hunter
Let’s embark on an adventure! Full speed ahead, it’s high time to go hunting! The goal? Glory and precious loot in the form of a multi-ton whale. The stake? Your and your people’s life.
Did I say “people”? Of course, after all, as it has been known for a long time, you must gather your party before venturing forth. Recruit adventurous madmen to become part of your crew.
But what’s a captain without a boat? Take the helm of Essex, the legendary whaling ship Captain George Pollard Jr. used to set out on the memorable voyage of 1819, which ended with the ship colliding with a giant sperm whale and sinking at the bottom of the sea. This event inspired Herman Melville to write the famous Moby Dick, the novel on which Essex: The Whale Hunter is based. Now it’s your turn to visit 19th century Nantucket.
Track down your own Moby Dick, grab your weapons and fight an unequal battle against the sea colossus. Once you win, harvest the raw materials from the whale – you’ll monetise them when paving legal trade routes and searching for luck on the black market. Only (or as many as) a couple of accurate harpoon throws stand before you and a great fortune.
And when the ocean turns against you, smashing your ship to smithereens and lunging you to the shore of a desert island, do your best to get out of there and return to where you belong – to the great seas.
Essex: The Whale Hunter is a 19th-century whaling simulator and a great opportunity to experience a truly Melvillian adventure, full of tension, grave dangers and whale trophies to win. Become a legend and find your Moby Dick!

Already play this and try to get different ending. But i have no clue to unlocked 1 image from the gallery, choosing different answer, mostly don’t make any different on npc response and what happen next.
The art is good, it could be scarier and more disturbing. how the story shows the mind of the girl is great, but somehow it’s just reading, there’s no certain option in the game that can make player more understand the reason behind why her mind like that or at least understand how that way of thinking make sense. like when i play this, i just read the anxiety. the story doesn’t drag me to feel the emotion.

It was…okay. It is very short. Is it supposed to have multiple endings? I played through once, and then did so again making the opposite choices. Same ending. Oh well.
It’ll take you less than 30 minutes. It isn’t bad…it just isn’t great either. I personally felt the storyline was a bit lacking, but maybe I was expecting more. The art is good and it doesn’t take long to go through, so give it a try.

Arctic Anxiety
This is in fact a nice game and it should be a nice game and because of that i made this post so no offense the developer.
– This is in fact a nice game and it should be a nice game but because of all those devastating bug + other bug i feel it is on it’s place to warning you about what you really buying and i try for 122 hour to avoid this post as best i can just to give that hard working single developer to resposse and do something with it but nothing happens and i am afraid he gonna use several month or worst he is not able to fix them at all.

This is a really cool survival game and is really challenging. Early development and developer is active. Game is a great purchase, I picked it up for $4.99 how can you go wrong.
–———————- UPDATE November 2021 ————————
OK my above review I hold true to and I like the game but some time has passed, there hasn’t been an update of a pep from the developer, it appears this game is abandoned but who knows.
I will say there has been a few updates last year 2020 but until you see some progress with this game I would not suggest purchasing it.
