Press release:
The Gdańsk-based (Poland) indie games publisher and developer Vixa Games today announced with great thrill and delight that their 2D Lovecraftian survival horror game “Edge of Sanity“, is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) in 2023 (as announced at the 2022 edition of Gamescom).

Set in the unforgiving lands of Alaska, Edge of Sanity is a Lovecraftian survival horror game with unique 2D art, a disturbing story, and complex base management. Gather resources, carefully plan your expeditions and explore the world of madness as you struggle to keep your humanity.

Edge of Sanity is a survival horror adventure with unique 2D art and an intense atmosphere, inspired by H.P. Lovecraft and set in the unforgiving wilderness of Alaska during the Cold War. Each day, you need to provide food and supplies to survive another night in your camp.

During story-rich expeditions, you will encounter local cultists and monsters hiding in dark corners around a remote mountain valley. Use anything you find to stand a chance against powerful enemies, uncover secrets of the mysterious Thurul Stone, and unveil a tragic story of missing scientists.

Lovecraft meets Alaska during the Cold War

Find a trace of local cults, face horrific monsters, and explore the unexplainable. Welcome to Alaska during the Cold War, full of people losing their sanity and beasts inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, a place where each dramatic event leaves a permanent mark on your brain.

Complex Base Management

Even in the most hostile environment, you need a place to rest and plan your future expeditions. Find and assign remaining survivors, and send them out on missions to find food, water, or other survivors. But don’t let your guard down – with people being on the edge, anything can happen.

Story-rich expeditions

You were part of a resupply group helping scientists working in the field lab. Without any trace of humanity on site, you stumble upon the monsters, and during the escape, your group splits up. You were lucky enough to make it out alive and set up a provisional camp to plan your future expeditions to find out what happened.

Fight for your life

Learn your enemies weaknesses, impair their senses, manage resources and make use of crafting abilities and the surrounding to survive against the powerful monstrosities. Whenever you are out of options, you can try fighting using your ax, but be prepared for a lethal ending.

About Vixa Games:
Vixa Games was founded in 2016 by a group of passionate indie developers in Gdańsk, Poland.

The team strives for a unique and eye-catching art style, an uncommon mix of genres and themes so our games are usually a bit twisted per the nature of the crew.

Despite the element of silliness – quality and a studio’s motto – “Life is too short to play boring games” are strongly reflected in all the Vixa Games’ products.
