What Dead In Antares is
Dead In Antares is an adventure game developed by Ishtar Games and released in 2026. It was published by Nacon. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Ares is a space strategy video game created by Nathan Lamont of Bigger Planet Software, and first released by Changeling Software in 1998. In 1999 the game was re-released as shareware by Ambrosia Software and released as open source software and freeware in 2008. The key feature of the game was its ability to zoom in and out smoothly; this allowed the player to switch between a close-up view, which emphasized space combat skills, and a strategic view of the entire map.
