Distrust 2017

About

DISTRUST is an isometric survival adventure with procedural generation on an Arctic research station lost in the endless dark of a polar night. A story-rich fiction with multiple endings that suits both singleplayer fans and co-op enthusiasts.

Story

They were on a routine rescue mission when a helicopter crash left the two survivors stranded near an abandoned Arctic base. To find a way back, they must explore the base, moving from sector to sector, fighting the severe cold and searching for food and equipment. There's something else, too. Something that should not exist but does. The thing, that enters their sleep and suck the life out of their bodies... Staying awake seems like a safe option, but the lack of sleep is exhausting and leads to hallucinations. Eventually, the survivors will close their eyes and fall prey to the unknown, terrifying force - unless you can somehow strike a balance between exhaustion and falling into a sleep from which one might never awake.

What is happening now

Distrust is an indie strategy-adventure game released in 2017 across major platforms. The game tasks players with survival and resource management in a hostile arctic setting. Recent coverage has tangentially referenced the game's title in relation to Star Citizen's ongoing development struggles, though this represents general gaming discourse rather than direct updates to Distrust itself. The broader gaming community continues to grapple with trust issues surrounding long-gestating projects, a sentiment that resonates across the industry.
