The world ended. The Cold War didn’t.

In Meltwater, two players battle for survival in the last livable place on Earth—Antarctica. With the world above scorched by nuclear fire and the seas turned to poison, only the icy south remains. But even here, the remnants of the U.S. and Soviet forces can’t set aside their old grudges.

This asymmetric, diceless strategy game delivers chilling tension and brutal choices. Push enemy survivors toward starvation, trap them in frozen corners, and outlast the creeping tide of radioactive contamination that slowly devours the map. It’s a race to control territory, manage precious resources, and determine the last gasp of human civilization.
