Arctic Eggs’ sparse description and brief, moody trailer paint a low-poly picture of a seemingly dystopian Antarctica where eggs (and possibly chickens as a whole?) have been outlawed. (Thanks for the spot, and RPS in Peace,Quinns.)
That cooking inspires a physics-based simulation of a frying pan you’ll hold out toward your waiting dinner guests, with possible meals including eggs, a string of sausages, fish, bacon and a pan full of unlit cigarettes. Mmmm.
As the food sizzles away, you’ll need to rotate the pan to flip over the ingredients to cook them evenly and stop things burning.

Arctic Eggs is simply listed as “coming soon”on Steam, and appears to be the second release from indie outfit The Water Museum after last year’s IBIS AM, a bizarre game in which you are a hungry bird trying to catch fish using your beak in first-person. Itcosts less than £2and looks exactly my kind of weird and wonderful, so I know what I’ll be playing this weekend.
