Icescape
Game Overview:
Icescape is a point and click adventure game based at an arctic research facility. Discover what crashed into the base and caused the power outage. The air is cold and getting colder so you must find food and clothing to keep warm.
There is a body temperature gauge which acts as a timer for each section. The game is over if this bar reaches zero. The game makes great use of a flashlight effect which enhances the atmosphere of the situation. There are a few secrets hidden around and the 3D rendered graphics are nice.
From the developer:
"You are stationed at a research base in the arctic circle and things have been going well for you. It's very boring at times but most of your work mates are good fun, well most of them...
There has been a bit of activity lately and they think there is something wrong with the equipment because the readings don't make sense.
Anyway, you retired to the basement sleeping quarters and hit the sack after a few beers and the next thing you hear is a screeching sound, an almighty crash, and a flash of light and you realize something must have hit the base, out here in the middle of nowhere!!
You cough and sputter and reach for your torch to try and find out what has happened. You shout 'Is there anybody there' but no-one answers."
