How it feels

Using only a map and compass in a remote natural area makes every wrong turn feel punishingly real.

What players say

Players call this a realistic training tool for military land navigation and orienteering, not a typical game. The compass, protractor, and pace beads are accurate, and dense vegetation forces detours. It currently has only one large forest map, and the developer is actively adding content.
