Above the Snow release date announced

Independent studio Above the Desk has announced the release date of its ambitious project, Above the Snow. The mountain hut management simulator will launch on Steam on April 23rd. To celebrate, the developers have released a new trailer and a special video featuring legendary mountaineer Ed Viesturs.

The game takes place in the heart of the 1960s Alps. Players assume the role of managing a high-altitude hut, transforming it into a cozy and safe haven for weary travelers. Amidst extreme cold and snowy peaks, every detail matters: from the indoor temperature and food quality to the overall comfort and entertainment of guests.

Above the Snow combines elements of economic strategy with deep narrative. It’s a meditative adventure, perfect for evenings under a warm blanket with a cup of hot chocolate. You can wishlist the game and try the demo on its official Steam page.
