If you're sick of survival games in which you spend days and nights finding resources, Die Young will bring you the perfect survival experience you need. After staying in Early Access state for a while, the game's final version has come out.
It has ditched the classic survival elements and followed a realistic approach towards surviving in a hostile land. Here's the trailer of the game, with a lot of gorgeous parkour footages for you to admire:
The story of Die Young
There are some people that favor dying young, but no ones would expect to die likes the protagonist of Die Young. In this game, you'll take control of a young woman. She was living her young ages happily, but then a sudden disaster strikes. She wakes up just to find herself alone on a vast island in the Mediterranean.
She was entombed alive and left there until death in this 12-kilometer-square land. Lucky for her, she is able to wake up before actually dying, but more dangers are waiting ahead. Dying from the thirst, the young girl also has to face a lot of aggressive native creatures here.
Thus, now she will have to use her athletic prowess to run, jump and parkour through this land to stay alive and find a way out.
Unique gameplay features
As I've mentioned, Die Young takes the survival experience to the realistic scales. To be more specific, you won't have to keep on grinding and wandering everywhere aimlessly to find resources. Of course, you can still opt to do so, but it's very likely that you'll end up dying young.
Instead, you must always run away from the hostile inhabitants under the extreme heat of the Mediterranean sun. Hence, staying hydrated is very important to keep your life together. On your fleeing ways, you'll have to make use of your parkour skills, reach some hidden places - ancient ruins, dark caves and so on.
In there, you can find some equipment and the resources you need to stay alive to find equipment. They also contain some clues on the mystery behind this island, which's vital to find the way out. The island does have a gorgeous landscape, but its inhabitant is very far from friendly. Fighting them at first is hopeless, and you'll need to use your wits to cut your tails.
