STORYLINE

March 2018, A group of expeditionists sets foot in Antarctica in order to do research. They descend their plane and reach the camp. After taking some rest our main character starts packing his bag for an outdoor mission. He gets to pick a limited number of suggested items. his choice of equipement and supplies will have impact on his hitpoints and game progress (e.g. By forgetting his sun goggles, his eye sight will start getting damaged due to bright UV rays and will have to start over).

Later on the journey, our group reaches what seems to be a graveyard which turned out to be the resting place of 3 of the 1910 Terra Nova Expeditionists. We get to experience their struggle during a blizzard they've been trapped in and in which they've starved to death...

Just as mentioned in the brief description, Expedition off time is a quest-like game that targets mainly scientists that want to learn more about expeditions to Antarctica.

More than the half of our time was spent on collecting data and reasearches
