Hello survivors!

Over the coming days, you might see a different Game Icon for Escape the Pacific in your Steam Library and on your Desktop.

The new Game Icon represents a Sextant and looks like this:


Depending on when you installed the game, you might see it straight away or at a later stage. The thing is, Steam doesn't provide much information about when and how the new icon will be visible for everyone.

The image is courtesy of Stanley London, the manufacturers of the very same sextant. Go check them out at www.stanleylondon.com


Stay tuned!
