A survivor has to stay warm in the Great White North! Enjoy this little vanity PJ set I pieced together in The Long Dark ( @thelongdark.bsky.social )!!! 🌲

@thelongdark.bsky.social I've finally found all the cairns. I feel a badge award would have compensated me for all the bandages I needed for Will in the process 😁

The only way to sweeten your coffee when you're drinking out of a @hinterland.bsky.social The Long Dark mug is with liquid gold, aka maple syrup (sorry it's not Canadian syrup, @thelongdark.bsky.social )

Amazing fan creations inspired by THE LONG DARK. Such impressive attention to detail, everything made by hand. We have the absolutely best players in the world.
I’m not sure if I’ve shared this on here before. I created this miniature world based on @thelongdark.bsky.social a few years ago for my friend’s birthday. Every tiny piece was handmade from bits and pieces around my desk. Not for sale. @hinterland.bsky.social @raphlife.bsky.social

Anyone want to help out?
My sister's playing @thelongdark.bsky.social and asked if I remember how to get to Ash Canyon from Timberwolf Mountain. I haven't played in that area in ages now, so I attempted to draw up a map from pure, hazy memory. Here's hoping I didn't just lead her to her own, frozen gravesite.
