Come join the discord server https://discord.gg/uxq4ffd The Game You play as Elin, waking up in a strange arctic landscape with no idea of where you are or where you should go. Seemingly stuck in a loop, every time you touch the water or succumb to the biting cold you wake up right where you started. Move between campfires, try to stay warm and stay away from penguins and that strange ghost wolf that appears out of thin air. The Main Mechanic is the ice on the map, it is extremely slippery and will not allow Elin to either stop nor turn while on it. This will make it very important to properly aim before stepping onto the ice. Hopefully Elin will find a pair of skates which will enable her to steer, although she will st…

Short description

Traverse the cold slippery ice by sliding and skating while trying to avoid both pesky penguins and ghostly wolves. All the while moving between campfires trying to stay warm.

About this game

Follow Elin in her struggle to return to warmth and safety. Somehow stuck in this frozen waste with no knowledge of how she got there, seemingly stuck in an endless loop with no other option than moving forward. You need to help her navigate slippery ice to get back home, all the while trying to stay away from that strange wolf and not collapsing from the cold. Please note , this game is made by a single person on his spare time, if you are looking for a AAA experience, this is not for you. Features A strange wolf seems to appear out of nowhere and chase you. Not sure why, just don't get caught. Staying warm is crucial in arctic conditions, keep an eye on Elin and how she reacts to the cold or she will never leave that ice. Make sure to always warm your feet when you have a campfire nearby. No information will be supplied by a UI, navigate through the game with only your wits, memory and small inputs from Elin. Sliding can be dangerous, the slippery ice will not present any way to change direction or stop. Make sure you aim properly when you enter the ice or you'll get wet. Finding skates can help massively if there is no way to just slide straight. With skates you can turn, however keep in mind that being the novice ice skater that Elin is, she still does not know how to stop. Animals can be cute to look at, but they can also be dangerous. While traversing the ice you need to make sure you don't crash into a playful penguin. Unforgiving is the name of the game (no it's not), but it is a difficult and sometimes frustrating game, it is not possible to save whenever, saves can only be made at campfires. Nighttime can be both helpful and detrimental, choose if you want to tackle a level in daylight or in the dark. During the night, many animals sleep, however it might be difficult to see in the dark. Music is made by Leander Marten,

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $3.99
  • Highest observed: $3.99

A Week In The Cold's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $3.99, the highest is $3.99, and the first visible tracked price is $3.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

A Week In The Cold's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99. The latest run records $3.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $3.99
  • Current list price: $3.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records A Week In The Cold at $3.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
