"Arctico" is a bit like "Deep Water", but without the underwater fear.Walk into a body of water in Arctico and you're suddenly in a kayak, sailing on calm blue water toward a fishing spot.It may be a game about expanding a research base in a lonely and harsh environment, but the atmosphere is much more relaxed - from the start, you have a pack of petable dogs pulling your sled by your side.

Although the game left Early Access in 2020, it has still rolled out several major updates since then.There was a base construction update in June this year, which made a lot of improvements, adjustments and optimizations to the base construction mechanism; now another update was suddenly launched, adding controller support and Steam Deck verification function.

The menus for building and viewing backpacks have been redesigned to be more suitable for controller operation; the Steam Deck version has adjusted the font size and added an in-game keyboard; the sled's input system has also been "adjusted to better support joystick input."Basically, now using your thumb to control the joystick to play the game will be as smooth as using a mouse and keyboard.
