Skyrim Day 3 Incoming + Blog Updates!

Skyrim Survival – Day 3 drops this Wednesday. After reaching Whiterun, I get caught up in the city’s favorite pastime: dragon slaying. Spoiler—my attempt at stealth archery is about as subtle as a mammoth in a library.

In the meantime, the blog’s had a few upgrades:

  • The Skyrim Hub is now live! It’s the central place for the full survival run and all related content.
  • The Long Dark Hub It’s the central place for the full survival run and all related content.
  • The Graveyard is open—every permadeath now gets logged, labelled, and (lightly) mocked.
  • The FAQ page answers burning questions like “Why the Switch?” and “Was that death avoidable?” (Usually: yes.)

New content’s coming. Expect chaos. Bring your torch.

New Rules, Who Dis? (Permadeath Begins Now)

Setting the official rules for all future playthroughs on Survivor Incognito—permadeath is here, and chaos just got consequences.

Starting today, all future playthroughs on this blog—The Long Dark, Skyrim: Survival Mode, and anything else I drag my tired, freezing self into—will follow official permadeath rules.

That means:

If I die, that run is over.

No reloads. No saves. No mercy.

I start fresh from Day 1, with a new character or region.

What about previous entries?

My original Day 1 diary for The Long Dark was from my first experience with the game—long before these rules existed. So yes, I fell through the ice and died like a confused deer. That was real. That was me. That was chaos, pre-regulations.

What now?

From here on out:

I’ll clearly label each run.

I’ll document every in-game day, death or glory.

And I’ll stick to the rules. Even if a moose doesn’t.

Full breakdown of the rules are now live and can be found here [The Rules of Survival (According to Me)]

Let’s see how long I last.

● A Voyageur’s Tale – Day Three:

What’s in the Works:

● Green Hell – Day One Diary

Failed to punch some trees, got poisoned by something unseen, and spent most of the day searching for vines to make rope. A strong start.

● Beginner-Friendly Guide – The Long Dark

A practical survival intro using Mystery Lake, minus the gatekeeping.

And finally, a Privacy Policy page is now live – because even barely-surviving bloggers need fine print. Read it Here

And remember: if it moves and growls, it’s probably not friendly. Survivor Incognito,  signing off – for now.

The Map Hub Is Live: Navigate My Chaos One Region at a Time

Survivor Incognito’s new Map Hub is here! Get quick access to detailed maps for The Long Dark, Skyrim, ARK: Survival Evolved, and more.

Lost again? You’re in luck—because now I know where I am. Mostly.

The Map Hub is now live on Survivor Incognito! It’s your one-stop page for every survival game map I’ve blundered through so far. Whether you’re wandering Mystery Lake, dodging deathworms in Scorched Earth, or just trying to remember which way Bleak Falls Barrow is, I’ve got you covered.

Here’s what’s inside:

The Long Dark region pages (including DLC and transition zones)

ARK: Survival Evolved maps for The Island and Scorched Earth, with links to interactive versions

Skyrim world map (because frostbite waits for no one)

A placeholder for future games, because let’s face it—I’m probably going to keep making poor survival decisions


Each game has its own dedicated map section, and I’ll keep expanding it as the blog grows. So if you ever need to get your bearings—or just want to laugh at mine—you know where to click.

Clickable region maps

Survival advice (questionable but heartfelt)

All zones: Great Bear, Far Territory, and transition maps


It’s coming soon. Until then, stay fed, stay warm, and don’t trust the ice.

Survivor’s Log: Scorched Earth – Day One Now Live!

You’d think spawning in a desert would teach someone a little humility.
You’d be wrong.

I took my first dusty steps into ARK: Scorched Earth on easy mode—and let’s just say it didn’t go as planned. There were bushes to punch, shirts to accidentally mass-produce, and a doedicurus with a very personal vendetta.

Curious how it all went down?
Check out the full Day 1 Diary now and witness my first sunburned stumble through the sand:

ARK: Survival Evolved – Day 1 on The Island: Dodos, Dilophosaurs, and Dubious Decisions

My Day 1 in ARK: Survival Evolved on The Island began with the classic survival starter pack: confusion, panic, and punching a tree with my bare hands. From crafting a questionable cloth shirt to accidentally angering a dilophosaur, this first day was all about learning the hard way — mostly through trial, error, and mildly heroic fleeing. Want to see how it all went down (and how I barely made it back up again)?
