In Shelter you experience the wild as a mother badger sheltering her cubs from harm. On their journey they get stalked by a bird of prey, encounter perils of the night, river rapids crossings, big forest fires and the looming threat of death by starvation.
Food is to be found, but is there enough for everyone? You will learn that the cubs need food not just to survive, but to enable them overcome the varying challenges they will face as they make their way through the world.
Are you ready for a truly different adventure, something that might evoke feelings you've never felt in a game before? In the wild, all living creatures are put to the test. The question in the end is who will survive to live another day?
Retro Family have once again composed a beautiful soundtrack to an original and graphically innovative setting in a world of nature where shelter is your only hope and survival your only goal.
I've tried the game earlier this afternoon, cool concept for sure, quite unique. The mechanics are basic, all you have to do is run through the woods, collect food/kill small animals like rats, frogs or even foxes to feed your cubs and hide them from the various dangers, but the final result is pretty great.
You progress through different scenarios, with huge eagles at daytime ( bushes work wonders to lie low), sneaky predators at night (you need to keep the puppies close to you or else they're dead as soon as they hear a weird rumour), big waterfalls to avoid etc.
Btw, the music is also pretty damn fitting^^
I thoroughly enjoyed it, much more than I thought I would.. though it was awfully short (it took me around 90 minutes to complete it). If the game had randomly generated environments/seasons/scenarios it would be perfect.
They should make Shelter 3 about giraffes. You survive in the African jungle for 6 hours then your dream comes true - you get shipped to Denmark to enjoy safety and tranquility only to get butchered upon arrival because there was a logistics mistake and they actually ordered an ostrich not you.

Didn't expect a sequel, good news. The first one was a pleasant 'experiment', but criminally short. Hopefully this #2 will be like a proper game, with more freedom, contents, refined stealth et cetera. Me likey.
Have yet to play the first game. but i always go softy mcsoft when I think about the game, kinda like that Paul McCarthy commercial about slaughterhouses.
