At a glance

Year Walk is a single-player adventure from Simogo, set in 19th-century Sweden. It follows a vision quest through dark woods, where players encounter strange creatures, solve cryptic puzzles and listen for clues while seeking a glimpse of the future. Folklore is part of the experience: an integrated encyclopedia covers the mysterious creatures and myths encountered along the way. The game blends first-person exploration with puzzles and a shifting boundary between reality and the supernatural. This edition adds locations, a map, updated art, new puzzles and a hint system, as well as achievement puzzles. Steam lists achievements and Family Sharing. Year Walk released on March 6, 2014, for Windows and macOS. Players who want to understand the events surrounding the cold New Year’s Eve are encouraged to look beyond the adventure itself, where the story moves between fact and fiction.
