About


Insurmountable is an adventure roguelike with permadeath, in which the player has to overcome huge mountains. Thanks to the procedurally created environment, no two climbs are the same. Make sure that your climber stays alive by always making sure that your vital values don't get into the critical range. This task is made more difficult by a dynamic weather system, day/night changes and a multitude of randomly generated events, where you never know in advance how they will end. Your decisions matter....every single one. Because anyone could be your last.
Choose one of three characters with different skills and background stories and start by climbing the first mountain. Search crates, caves and ancient ruins for equipment from past adventurers. You'll need it, because even the first mountain will demand everything from you. But don't worry. As time goes by, you'll become stronger and stronger. Decide freely in a sophisticated skill system, which strengths should have yours climberin.
In the course of each of the three mysterious stories, you will meet dangerous animals, overcome deadly abysses, encounter sinister and well-meaning characters, who do not always have to be human. Here, too, each of your decisions decides the following events.
Three mountains have to be conquered at the end. One higher and deadlier than the previous one. Divide your forces and your equipment correctly, because you don't have a second attempt and you can forget about learning a route. In Insurmountable you have to cope with unknown dangers, react spontaneously to unpredictable events and realize in the end that, as in life, you can't always know the consequences of your decisions, but you have to cope with them anyway and in the end, it often turns out differently than you thought.
Face the challenge of ever new and changing dangers, face snowstorms and the sheer force of nature, always keep your eyes on the summit and overcome the insurmountable.Keyfeatures

Insurmountable reviews and comments

Another example of a survival sim done right. The simplicity of gameplay mechanics is offset by a decent variety of events, the procedural generation adds a good measure of replayability while creating a surprisingly small amount of bugs. The indicators seem to deplete at a fairly acceptable, realistic rate. The amount of micromanagement is substantial but this, again, is offset by a relatively small gameplay scale, so it doesn't really get tedious. The constant small changes of the environment make you constantly adapt and tweak your gear and skills to uphold the fragile balance between your gauges.
As is the case with any roguelike, this game is fairly challenging, but the fulfillment that you get from actually succedeing is that much bigger.
Not much to be said about the rest - the soundtrack is decent and immersive enough, the graphics are pretty nice and the control scheme and UI simplicity makes for a pleasant "easy to learn - hard to master" gameplay.
If you're a fan of good roguelikes or just survival sims in general - definitely check this one out.
