  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zvycnuz6cg With almost a month to go until the release of Gerda: A Flame in Winter on September 1, we’ve released a gameplay trailer to give you a first look at exploration, choices, and the RPG-lite elements of the game and how those choices—and their direct and indirect consequences—can open different paths to be explored.
