It contains a compass, for a start, as well as readouts to track your vitals. Just you, your notebook, your radio, and the watch Mia gave you for your birthday. No machete, no handy little firelighter, no canned goods or protein bars. At this point, Green Hell takes everything from you. Lost and alone in the jungle, you’re now tasked with surviving and finding your missing wife. Jake and Mia are quickly separated, with Mia possibly imprisoned or at least threatened by the Yabahuaca and Jake fully up the proverbial creek. Then the game yanks the jumper over eyes and punches you in the stomach until you cry. You’re given a machete, some easily accessible kindling in the form of a dry bird’s nest, and an abundance of firewood. You learn to harvest wood and stone, and have a quick go at starting a campfire.

There’s a brief tutorial that eases you into things like your mum easing you into the new jumper she got you for Christmas. The primary goal seems to be for Mia to make contact with a primitive tribe, while Jake catalogues new species of flora and fauna – which is a little odd for an anthropologist. Their mission isn’t entirely clear at first, but its seems they have been here before – or at least Jake has. In it, you take control of Jake, an anthropologist who has travelled to a remote part of the Amazon with his wife Mia. Green Hell even goes a step further than most, though. Not that saddling a T-Rex isn’t something to aspire to, of course.

They generally have a greater sense of direction and something to drive you forward beyond simply trying to saddle a T-Rex before any of the buck-naked murderers you’ve woken up next to. The games in the right hand box present the same challenges, ultimately, but with more of a focus on narrative.

We’re talking Subnautica, The Long Dark, and – crucially – Green Hell. And then you have the box on the right, containing games that go that extra step or two right off the bat. The box in the left includes your standard “wake up naked and punch rocks” games, like Ark: Survival Evolved or Seven Days to Die. You see, they’ve thrown in a Story Mode, they’ve added a cooperative option for up to 4-players, and they’ve listened to their player base to ensure that their community are kept happy. It’s certainly a happy community too, with no less than 24,000 very positive reviews kicking around on Steam.Most games in the Survival Sim genre can be separated into one of two boxes. Since launch in 2019 on PC, Creepy Jar have continued to add content to ensure that the dangerous depths of the Amazon are able to deliver an utterly robust nature. In Green Hell danger lurks at every corner, with the team at Creepy Jar having created a hyper-realistic experience. And when you consider the game has already hit 1.5 million players on the PC, it’s pretty exciting to see a console drop.
