I remember playing a web game about surviving in the arctic, I think. It was a turn-based grid-based roguelike. We needed to find clothes, food and observe the sun movements to find our route to safety. The graphics were very simple. As far as I remember, there were no combat and survival was very hard, with hunger and hypothermia being common threats.

Has anyone else played it? I don't remember the name and can't find it anymore.

Hey, I think the game you're looking for might be Arctic Survival Penguin. It's a turn-based roguelike where you have to survive in the Arctic, find food, and stay warm. The game has that vibe of constant hunger and hypothermia messing with you, and the graphics are pretty simple. Check it out here, it might be the one.

Another option is Wayward, which is more of a survival game with roguelike elements. I’m not sure if it's exactly set in the Arctic, but it has that resource management and hardcore survival feel. You can take a look here.

If neither of these is it, you might want to browse through itch.io since there are a lot of indie games that could match what you remember. Good luck!

The one I played had very very simple graphics and was web-based. None of those, unfortunately, but thanks for the suggestions, they look worth checking later.
