Also the map doesn't say where you are at the moment so you have to by a combination of memory, signs placed around the facility and landmarks you come across to figure out where you are and where you need to be. The game has a lot of nice subtle touches such as when your character is sufficiently warmed it doesn't say so on the HUD but you can tell by her voice. The game gives you specific objectives to do this which I enjoy over a more sandbox approach. Your plane goes down near a facility that had been left behind with little suppies and you must find a way to get passage back to the nearest manned outpost 225 miles away. Basically you must craft items to help yourself survive such as patching windows to keep the cold out and making items to restore power to certain areas of the facility but there are only so many items to be found so you have to make choices of what to repair and where to give yourself the best chance to survive and progress.

The game also does a good job of making things a little harder as the game goes on and the weather gets worse without going full blown survival sim where you have to manage the cold as well as your hunger, thirst, sleep, etc.

The game did give helpful tips such as reminding you that if you set up rope lines between locations it would help you not get blown around by wind as much but it doesn't go into a full blown tutorial about how to setup rope lines or when to do it. For instance I found a blowtorch in the game but it was never said when I had to use it, I had to figure that out for myself. It strikes a good balance between giving you solid tips for the game but not holding your hand too much to tell you exactly what to do. I am not normally a fan of survival games as I find them tedious but this game did a good job of breaking down the tasks and keeping me focussed.

Being that Near Death has a few similarities with the horror movie The Thing I constantly expected a monster to be entered into the story at Being that Near Death has a few similarities with the horror movie The Thing I constantly expected a monster to be entered into the story at some point but luckily it stayed true to a exploration and survival game.
