What players think
The recurring themes across 109 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The dialogue pop ups in the top right corner that show characters reacting to stuff?
Surprisingly addictive gameplay, maybe I'll give this genre another try.
The snowy visuals, warm cabins, hot cocoa vibes, and soundtrack all come together perfectly especially during the harsher winter moments when things start getting intense.
I felt drawn to Above the Snow from the moment I saw the first screenshots and trailers: running a mountain shelter in a picturesque setting, with an engaging story, interesting characters I'd like to learn more about, absolutely stunning art, and a catchy soundtrack?
