Our take on That Which Gave Chase
This horror adventure replaces the usual combat-centered structure with dog-sled handling and route planning. Its short, linear format and fragmented narrative also depart from longer action-adventure campaigns built around repeated encounters and progression.
What is That Which Gave Chase?
That Which Gave Chase is a first-person horror adventure about a sled dog musher transporting a scientist across the Arctic.
Players maneuver dogs through treacherous terrain, plan routes, and keep the sled from tipping as they travel along linear paths and through contained open-ended areas. The game follows the last stage of an abandoned expedition and presents its story through sudden cuts and a disjointed narrative. Its structure resembles a linear walking simulator, with a focus on text, mood, and atmosphere alongside light horror elements. An average playthrough lasts around 45-60 minutes, with further discoveries available for players who examine the strange surroundings carefully.
