Midwinter is a post-apocalyptic first-person action role-playing game with strategy and survival elements for the Atari ST, Amiga and PC. It was designed by Mike Singleton and was released in 1989 by Microplay Software. The game was critically acclaimed and commercially successful enough to get a sequel titled Flames of Freedom in 1991. A remake (as of April 2014) is currently in development.

A really neat game that was too ahead of its time for its own good. The strategy elements combined with the unique ways of traversing the snowy terrain really given you a sense of atmosphere and make the strategy elements that much more engaging since the world feels so palpable. Worth playing even today as a way to look back at where open world games like Far Cry really started.
