Antartida

Antartida is a short survival game set in Antarctica in the early 1960s. Sent by the Argentine government on a scientific mission to investigate previously unrecorded meteorological phenomena, you must discover your objective, get your vehicle moving and travel across the remote continent alone.

The mission

You rely on the vehicle’s engine, radio and the wind outside for company. Listen to transmissions, work out the coordinates and set a course through the vast, desolate landscape and its unforgiving weather. The cramped vehicle contrasts with the open ice, creating a claustrophobic and suspenseful journey.

Operate and survive

The game does not explain everything. You learn to operate the vehicle, interpret its signals and work out what to do as you progress. Watch where you are driving and pay attention to the heating: a crash or freezing can end your attempt to survive. There are no save points, second chances or other help.

Length

A playthrough lasts approximately 40 minutes on average, though the time varies with your skills and how prepared you are for the mission.
