Developer’s Description

The universe of This War of Mine has been expanded by following DLCs:

The Little Ones - explores the hardships of wartime survival as seen from an entirely new perspective - that of a child.

This War of Mine: Stories:

1st episode: The Father's Promise - a heartbreaking tale of loss and hope in a war-torn city

2nd episode: The Last Broadcast as a radio-operator you are going to face moral dilemmas and decide, whether there is a price too high for the truth

3rd episode: Fading Embers - in severe and harsh winter, you will need to find an answer to the question of what is more important - survival of human legacy or the survival of a man.

All of the Stories episodes are available as separate DLCs as well as a part of Season Pass. The Little Ones DLC is not included in the Season Pass.

In This War Of Mine you do not play as an elite soldier, rather a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city; struggling with lack of food, medicine and constant danger from snipers and hostile scavengers. The game provides an experience of war seen from an entirely new angle.

The pace of This War of Mine is imposed by the day and night cycle. During the day snipers outside stop you from leaving your refuge, so you need to focus on maintaining your hideout: crafting, trading and taking care of your survivors. At night, take one of your civilians on a mission to scavenge through a set of unique locations for items that will help you stay alive.

Make life-and-death decisions driven by your conscience. Try to protect everybody from your shelter or sacrifice some of them for longer-term survival. During war, there are no good or bad decisions; there is only survival. The sooner you realize that, the better.
