There\u2019s harsh elements and rough terrain to overcome, food to be foraged and mysteries to be uncovered, all the while, Sam is on a journey of making peace with his past and becoming himself.<\/p>\n<p><em>IKUMA: The Frozen Compass<\/em> is inspired by the Franklin expedition of 1845 (more on that in a sec, if you\u2019re interested) and Inuit legends and can be played solo or cooperatively.<\/p>\n<p>The Franklin expedition set out on a mission to discover a North-West Passage that would connect Europe and Asia in 1845.

In the game we\u2019re telling our fictional version of the story through a mystery Sam needs to solve on the island. The Humboldt expedition had been lost and Sam\u2019s crew was tasked to find out what happened when they themselves got into an accident leaving Sam and a single sled dog stranded on the island that happens to be the stage for the final days of the lost Humboldt crew. Sam now has the chance to retrace their steps and uncover a dark secret that led to the expedition\u2019s tragic failure.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>An Emotional Narrative<\/strong> \u2013 <em>IKUMA: The Frozen Compass<\/em> is a coming-of-age story in which you explore unfamiliar terrain, forage for food and uncover mysteries.
