Don't Let It Die
A cooperative survival game set in the Paleolithic where a small tribe must preserve and study a newly sparked fire to avoid extinction. Players control four characters who take turns searching for resources and food, fighting predators, constructing tools and weapons, and allocating wood to keep the fire burning. A 14-day timeline forces decisions between hunting and foraging, researching discoveries about fire, and defending the camp from environmental threats. Gameplay emphasizes teamwork and adapting to changing dangers as players balance short-term needs with long-term goals to ensure both the tribe and the fire survive.
