Impact Winter is a post-apocalyptic survival adventure game, which was set eight years after the so-called "catastrophe," where an asteroid collision that almost wiped out Earth's population and buried the planet in a new ice age era. This event resulted in a lowered temperature of the planet and buried it in a continuous snowfall. Players will take part as Jacob Solomon, the leader of a group of survivors teamed up in a remote isolated church. Jacob's story begins after a mysterious radio transmission was intercepted.
