Do you like your horror games to be set in the most bleak place on planet Earth? If by bleak you mean the Antarctic then this is a game for you.
The Launch Trailer
The game starts you off in a place called Leningradskaya station presumably somewhere in the Antarctic. This is where shit get crazy, Nazi werewolves who are also keen occultists (yes, you read correctly) have made a demonic pact with the Devil/Lucifer to resurrect the Third Reich. It is then left up to you (isn't it always) to fight against the threat of these abominations and save the world from the fascist horror. The game is pretty straightforward in terms of combat in which you'll mainly use your bare hands and then proceed to gruesomely ripping monsters in half. You will be given a knife later in the game to spice things up.
The game is dark, heavy and done in an art style that seems to asphyxiate the player. The game is very reminiscent of the indie hit Lone Survivor in the fact that they both seem to be very 8-bit retro-ish. Dark Antarctic is available right now for Windows through the game's website for $6.66 (US Dollars). The lucky 666th customer to purchase the game will receive the Lucifer Edition of the game, which comes with a special chainsaw animation to take zombies apart with.
Happy slaying guys. This has been Alex Plum with your Indie Game Highlight.
