How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
A nuclear-powered icebreaker stuck in the ice of the Gulf of Finland, owned by a shipping company with ties to TerraGroup.
The real place
The official wiki says the game's icebreaker is based on the Soviet nuclear icebreaker Arktika, the first surface ship to reach the North Pole, in 1977. Arktika was retired in 2008 and sent for scrapping, so the pin marks Murmansk, home port of Russia's nuclear icebreakers, where the Lenin, the first nuclear-powered surface ship, is now a museum.
Visiting
Many governments currently advise against travel to Russia, so check your country's official travel advice first. The Lenin is moored at Murmansk's marine station and can be visited on guided tours of the reactor, bridge and crew quarters.
