In this episode of The Long Dark we explore The Riken which is a beached whaling boat very close to the Lonely Lighthouse in Desolation Point. 

The boat has a very important tool, The FURNACE! This is like a stove but using coal you can heat it up to 150C and make items like arrowheads, improvised knife and improvised hatchet. We really needed a hatchet to break down wooden things. I didn't actually use the forge in this episode but do in the next. I explore the ship and find some goodies.

I think make my way over to Hibernia Processing. This building is huge and I'll save the exploration of the inside until the next episode as well. I did search all of the trailers that are just outside the main building though.


A description of The Long Dark from the developer Hinterland:

HOW FAR WILL YOU GO TO SURVIVE?

Imagine the lights go out, never to return. Bright aurora flare across the sky, and all humanity’s technological might is laid to waste, neutralized in a kind of quiet apocalypse. Everything that has shielded humanity from the disinterested power of Mother Nature is suddenly wrenched from us, dropping us a few links down the food chain. Food and water are scarce. The roads are no longer safe. And winter approaches… Welcome to The Long Dark —an immersive survival simulation set in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. Experience a unique first-person survival simulation that will force you to think and push you to your limits with its thought-provoking gameplay and mature storytelling.
