This, geeks, is The Long Dark! In part four of our Long Dark Let's Play series we continue the Hopeless Rescue Challenge, setting out from the Mountaineer's Hut to summit the terrifying Timberwolf Mountain. We encounter the Bear and several wolves on our journey.

Hopeless Rescue Challenge
►We are taking on the difficult Hopeless Rescue Challenge which requires you to make your way from Mystery Lake to Pleasant Valley, across Pleasant Valley to Timberwolf Mountain, and up to the summit in search of a distress pistol.
►After recovering the pistol we must descend the peak, and navigate through Pleasant Valley, the Coastal Highway, and Desolation Point. There we find the Lonely Lighthouse, where firing a rescue flare completes the challenge. 
►The entire journey must be completed in 7 days or less.
►This is not just a race against time. My friend PhasedFox and myself will both be taking on the challenge, posting episodes to our Youtube channels on Tuesdays, and competing to finish the challenge in the shortest amount of time.

The Long Dark Information
►The Long Dark is a thoughtful, exploration-survival experience that challenges solo players to think for themselves as they explore an expansive frozen wilderness in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. 
►There are no zombies -- only you, the cold, and all the threats Mother Nature can muster. 
►The Long Dark is currently part of Steam's Early Access program where the Sandbox mode is in Alpha release.


The Long Dark Features
►No hand holding! The game challenges players to think for themselves by providing the information but never the answers. You have to earn the right to survive.
►Permadeath! See how long you can survive, check your standing on the global Leaderboards, then head back in and push yourself to survive longer.
►Monitor your Calorie count, Hunger and Thirst, Fatigue, and Body Temperature. Maintain your overall Condition if you want to survive. Let yourself weaken and any small threat may lead to your death.
►Over 30 square kms of wilderness to explore (and with more regions coming!). Mystery Lake, Coastal Highway, Desolation Point, Pleasant Valley, and more, all interconnected and each with dozens of explorable locations.
►Over 100 gear items including clothing and tools.
►Hunt Deer, Snare Rabbits, and be on the lookout for Black Bears, as they roam the landscape in search of food. Wolves are territorial and will defend their territory, or stalk you if they catch your scent. If you let them get too close, you may find yourself in a desperate struggle to survive. 
►Deep First Aid system.
►...and much more!
