The Long Dark is a first-person survival video game developed and published by Hinterland Studio. The player assumes the role of a plane crash survivor who must survive the frigid Canadian wilderness after a global disaster disables all electronics. Welcome to our community!

I don't know when this was added, but there's a workbench in Forsaken Airfield on the northern island. Very nice. I have been settled in the cave on the southern edge of that island, and not having to travel all the way to the airfield to do crafting makes that house, or the cave, a more viable base. Not that the occasional day trip to craft and resupply arrows is that bad.

FA continues to be my favourite region for medium-term survival. The lack of beachcombing means you can't last forever (you'll run out of birch eventually, but you can lay in enough bear and moose meat by that point to buy you thousands of days, I'm sure) but the hunting is really easy and the wolves are straightforward to deal with, the forge is really convenient, and the new ZoC connector cave only improves the coal supply.
