About This Game

Dead in Antares is a turn-based survival management game with RPG elements, set on an alien planet. Lead a crew of survivors sent on a mission to save humanity. Manage their needs, strengthen their teamwork, and explore this mysterious world to find a way back home.

Earth is dying. In a desperate attempt to save it, ten highly trained specialists are sent into space as a final hope to find new resources that could save humankind. But after being swallowed by a mysterious wormhole that should not have been there, their ship crashes on an unknown and enigmatic planet located in the Antares System.

Call it fate, call it a miracle—they’re still breathing. But now, survival is their only option.

Survival is more than just staying alive—it’s about managing every aspect of your crew and technology. Food, water, exhaustion, mental health—every system is deeply interconnected. Your ship may be in ruins, but its wreckage holds vital technology to help you build a functioning camp.

Assign tasks wisely, repair and repurpose advanced equipment, optimize energy use, and make the most of every resource. Your crew’s unique skills and personalities will shape your strategy—but beware, every decision can bring you one step closer to survival… or disaster.

Dead in Antares is the ultimate evolution of the “Dead in” formula: pushing survival/management mechanics to their limits.

Antares Prime is breathtaking, yet full of danger and mystery. Beneath its hand-drawn landscapes lie dark secrets waiting to be uncovered. Was the crash just bad luck, or is there something more sinister at play?

Survival won’t be easy—hostile forces lurk in the shadows. Engage in turn-based tactical combat, where every move counts. 

But you will have to venture deep into the unknown. Explore lush jungles teeming with life, scorching volcanic deserts, and eerie crystal forests hiding ancient secrets. Conduct research to understand the planet’s mysteries, gather crucial resources, and fight for your crew’s survival.

Discover the truth about Antares Prime… if you can live long enough to find it.

A planet to save. Another to explore. Are you truly alone on Antares Prime?

The story of Dead in Antares is filled with unexpected twists, and survival comes at a cost. You’ll lead a crew of 10 playable characters, each with their own past, ambitions, and secrets. It’s up to you to uncover their stories, manage their relationships, and navigate the tensions that arise in the face of adversity.

Your choices will shape friendships, rivalries, and even betrayals—ultimately determining the fate of your crew and unlocking one of multiple endings. Will you unite them… or break them apart?
