300,000 years ago, winter came early. The river froze before the leaves fell. The herds are thinning. And in the cave of Tau's band, every fire is the same fire: kept alive, carried from hand to hand for generations, because nobody knows how to make a new one. You are Tau, a tall, restless young hunter who sees what the elders miss.

Survive the winter. Earn the trust of a band that is running out of time. Get close to the women around you: the fire keeper who knows every secret, the stubborn hunter-girl who wants a spear of her own, the gossip, the widow, the stranger from the north. And maybe, one day, make fire yourself. - Choices that come back chapters later
- A living band: hunger, cold, rivals and slow-burning romances
- An original soundtrack composed for the game
