In Dead in Antares, the Pro Cooker is a very special camp station as it's the ONLY station that does NOT need anyone working on it!

(Well, you'll still need precious resources AND energy to make the meals, but let's not focus on the details)

Our friends at @songs-of-silence.com
are bringing their stunning strategy adventure to Epic Games Store - free starting tomorrow! 💥

We had the pleasure of bundling The Last Spell with Songs of Silence earlier this year, and we’re thrilled to see this game reach even more players.

Go claim it!

On Antares Prime, Ore and Carbon are essential minerals you can both mine in the field and process directly at your camp.

They’re vital for crafting new items, upgrading AND repairing your camp stations!

I'm 8 hours into The Last Spell and it is 😍 SO GOOD 😍

I love tactics and strategy games, and I'm a sucker for games where you have a hero roster with personality modifiers that impact gameplay (Darkest Dungeon, for example). Honestly feels like someone made this game for me personally ❤️
