‘Alaska Gold Fever’ is a survival game of sorts, set in 1896, just after gold was discovered in Alaska. The game relives the mad rush of greedy people to Alaska, desperate for a piece of the treasures rumored to be hidden in its streams and mountains.

You set off into the Alaskan wilderness with the goal to become the wealthiest man alive! Of course, to become the wealthiest man alive, you will need to stay alive. You need to make sure your character is warm enough at all times, as the Alaskan wilderness is prone to freezing cold.

You will need to carry extra clothes, food, supplies, and equipment with you on your journey. The elements are not the only dangers of course.

There are dangerous wild animals such as wolves and bears everywhere, and if you don’t keep your eyes peeled and your weapon ready, you might become breakfast for someone!

Gold rushes attract all sorts of people, and with large crowds comes no shortage of unscrupulous characters who won’t hesitate to murder you for your gear, your money, or your land. These types know only one language, so you’d better start slinging lead real quick if you wanna make it out alive.

Stake your claim and mine for gold in caves, tunnels, and streams using quality tools, dynamite, and river mining setups. As you progress you can expand, building up your gold mining empire and becoming a wealthy and respected figure in the mining industry and society in general.

Don’t let your toes freeze off!
