I remember reading about a game a year back or so, but cannot remember the title.  I don’t recall if it was ever released or if this was a preview.

The storyline was simple.  You are driving out to a remote town to see your new girlfriend/fiance/lover.  It is snowing as you drive and once you get to the house you are completely snow bound.  You are stuck (without power?).

The house is empty.  You search around and find the hidden entrance to a secret underground complex.  What dark secrets does this town hide?  And what has happened to the girl?

A common plot line, but the snow is unusual.  And note that all action takes place indoors.

I remember the graphics as being realistic rather than cartoon.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks!

Corrosion is a good possibility.  It is entirely possible that the final game changed slightly from the initial announcements (I am quite sure you played the part of the driver).  Or I could be remembering it wrong.

Definitely not Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel.  I own that one  

If I remember correctly, the story in Corrosion had nothing to do with any girl/fiancee or something similar…

It sounds too much like Corrosion to be likely anything else, though I suppose it could also be Penumbra: Overture.  As Sefir says though, the premise of Corrosion doesn’t involve a girl, you’re a sheriff investigating an area and you get stuck due to snow.

Thanks for the replies!

I’ll go with Corrosion for now.  If anyone can think of a better fit, then please post.  I’ll keep email notification on.

Thanks again!

It WAS first person, right?

Probably.

Again, my memory is not so crisp for an article read well over a year ago

But I don’t recall seeing any people in the screen shots.  I think that feature would have stuck with me.

So unless there are any Controlled Remote Viewers in the audience, we must accept a wide range of potential variations.
