Our take on Grønland
The game departs from standard adventure settings by placing its mystery in the lower Arctic of 1899. It also replaces a fully explained backstory with gradual recollection, making uncertainty about the protagonist’s purpose part of the adventure’s structure.
What is Grønland?
Set in the lower Arctic in 1899, Grønland is a text-heavy adventure about investigating a mysterious past and deciding what to remember or forget.
The game takes place during a period of competing expeditions, searches for the Northwest Passage, missionary settlement, and rising tensions with local Inuit nations. Its compact open world contains allies, adversaries, secrets, and treasures. Exploration involves kayaking across frozen oceans, entering caves, facing blizzards, climbing volcanoes, and hiking through rocky taiga. The reason for the protagonist’s presence in the region is part of the mystery. Memories return gradually during the journey, one at a time, as the player explores the Arctic environment and investigates its secrets.
