It’s been almost 3½ years since the release of Episode 2, but we’re finally here!
Episode 3 has been released.
There is so much new content in the third episode and the playtime is significantly longer.
The episode spans 8 new levels exploring both Mars and the story through action and flashbacks. We had a blast making it and we hope you will enjoy playing it.
