About this product

Product Information

Set in the claustrophobic confines of an atomic icebreaking vessel shipwrecked near the North Pole, Cryostasis puts players in the shoes of Alexander Nesterov, a Russian meteorologist sent to investigate strange occurrences on the submarine. Once aboard, Nesterov discovers that the captain and the crewmen have seemingly died of exposure, only to be transformed into bizarre creatures by the extreme cold. Nesterov has a unique "Mental Echo" ability that lets him travel back and alter events from the ship's past, but he can only use it on former crewmembers whose memories have frozen along with the rest of their body. Cryostasis makes use of a unique temperature dynamic, whereby players must keep Nesterov warm enough by finding sources of heat such as lamps, ovens, and heaters. The strange creatures on the submarine, however, can only thrive in the subzero temperatures, so they attack the only warm-blooded creature remaining on the ship. Gamers are left with the task of fending off truly cold-blooded enemies, all while attempting to reheat each section of the ship.

A survival-horror shooter.
I bought “Cryostasis” because of its fascinating setting and ominous atmosphere. The entire game takes place on a huge derelict ship, lost in the Arctic for decades and covered in ice. I quickly found out that even though it feels and plays like a first person shooter, “Cryostasis” is not your standard action game. It’s more of an arcadeadventure in which combat plays a secondary role and your main goal is not to exterminate all foes but to explore the ship and find out what happened to its crew. The game mechanics are a bit peculiar and it will take you quite some time to learn the basics of gameplay. Most importantly, you need to get used to the fact that you lose strength if you stay too long in extremely cold environments, so you have to continuously search for heat sources that replenish your health. Sometimes these are not so easy to find, leaving you with barely enough energy to survive the fights with the enemies (who are tough, by the way). On the whole, I found the game to be rather hard and I would recommend it only to experienced gamers. In conclusion, “Cryostasis” is a good game but in order to appreciate it you need to dedicate enough time to it. If you decide to buy it, don’t forget to install the latest patch that not only improves the game engine in several ways but also removes the copy-protection system, allowing you to play without the disc in the DVD drive.Read full review

I liked it
This game is really creepy. It has an excellent story, and pretty good visual effects. The combat could use a little work, but it fits the game style. The fact that this game uses PhysX for all its physics processing slows it way down at times. I wish game companies would stop using PhysX. Its a terrible API that only utilizes one cpu core. Overall, framerates are barely within acceptable on a 1gb hd 4870 with settings on high, advanced PhysX off. I would definitely recommend this game.

Interesting Story and gameplay
I like this game as it's got a interesting story and the graphics and physics are decent. One con though, optimization. It's using Nvidia physX to push out some great effects but at a high cost of performance. With patch 1.1 you need a decent rig to handle the heavy physX load. Otherwise, it's a good game.

cryostasis:sleep of reason
This game started out a little slow and then just got more and more interesting, i wouldnt put it in the fps category its more of a mix of fps and mystery/puzzle category(its not a fast paced run and shoot game) but it was fun nonetheless and for 5 bucks it was well worth it.I'm buying alot of these % dollar games now because if the game is bad you really cant feel bad as apposed to paying 50 and feeling you got ripped off.I thought the movie room scene was great a nice twist in the game. this game is worth anywhere between 5-10 bucks

Great Game
The graphics in this game are awesome. You need a newer video card to take advantage of them however. I have a GTX 285 with an 8800 GT dedicated to physics processing and have all video settings on High. When I disabled the 8800 and ran all processing through the GTX 285 I had a noticeable drop in Frames Per Second, so it really pushes your video card! I found this an entertaining cross between shooting and problem solving. It is a little linear in that you can't really go anywhere you want once you have completed a certain level but it seems the ship is so big it would be hard to remember your way around if it were an "open world" type game. The only downside is when you replay it your enemies come from the same places and do the same things each time, so the AI could be a lot better. All in all won of my favorite games.Read full review
