The Colder Light
Description
In this game the player controls an animist shaman in some magical arctic clime, trying to locate her father through the trackless wastes after he fails to return from a hunting expedition. In addition to inventory management, at her disposal she also has her magic, regulated through the use of such rune-stones as she has in her possession and by which constellations happen to be present in the game-world's sky to be called upon.
The game is a text adventure game with a modified hypertext interface, presenting all information to players as text but only accepting input through mouse-clicks on keywords and menu items.
