Through Ice & Snow Myths & Legends (Multilingual)

Includes all four modules: Walking on the Ice: The long winters were the greatest enemies of the explorers who sought the Northwest Passage. On many occasions they were so harsh and long-lasting that the ice that formed in the Arctic waters did not melt during the summer, forcing the crews to decide whether to remain motionless for another year or to devote all their resources to breaking the thick ice floes with the risk that these efforts would be unproductive... There was also a third and desperate possibility, that of abandoning the ships and continuing on foot, either towards the final objective or towards southern lands that would allow them to save their lives, but this had to be the last option, since the bad weather that had rendered their ships useless would hit them hard during their long journey towards salvation, weakening them physically and psychologically... and also, if they survived, the admirals would be judged upon their return in a court martial for abandoning the ships.

Inuit Mythology: Explorers and Ships: This is a module where explorers and their ships appear for the first time, to enhance the game experience. Two new Solo Modes: Includes: -Inuit Territory The crew members are getting sick as we sail. Only the Inuit tribes in the different areas are able to find solutions to help the crew members get better. These healing methods are varied: from feeding the sick certain animals to visiting distant Inuit on their own island to get home-made treatment. We have to cross the Northwest Passage before the entire crew gets sick! -Amundsen We are on board the Gjøa, a small ship that will surely make it easier for us to cross the frozen waters of the Arctic, although its size can also cause some problems: the number of provisions is smaller, as well as its fuel capacity… We are under the command of the explorer Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian with less experience in polar waters than other explorers who have previously perished pursuing our same objective, the crew knows this and that is not good for morale! Let us hope that his discipline will guide us towards achieving our goal: to be the first to cross the Northwest Passage by boat.
