Developer Ice Code Games, renowned for titles such as *Hard West II* and *Rogue Waters*, has unveiled their latest project, *Nightmare Frontier*. This tactical turn-based strategy game introduces an innovative blend of extraction looter mechanics, reminiscent of a fusion between "XCOM," "Hunt: Showdown," and a hint of Cthulhu's eerie influence. Dive into the announcement trailer and explore the initial screenshots in the gallery below for a glimpse into this thrilling new world.

Set in an alternate version of 19th-century America, *Nightmare Frontier* unfolds shortly after a cataclysmic event that blurs the boundaries between reality and an unfathomable horror. The narrative follows the aftermath of this event, where monstrous beings known as Dreadweavers—manifestations of humanity's deepest fears—emerge from the terror dimension to overrun the streets. Players assume the role of the ringleader, a survivor navigating this nightmare-ridden world. Leading a group of scavengers, the ringleader ventures into the heart of the city, braving untold dangers in pursuit of valuable loot.
