Dead Space Extraction 'glow worms' offer unlimited light, arm cramps
Ammunition is not the only scarcity in Dead Space Extraction. In fact, flashlights seem even more difficult to come by, as miners on Aegis 7 are left to keep their wits about them basked in the comforting greenish hue of a "glow worm." The game's equivalent of glow sticks, glow worms offer an ...
The DS Life: Light the Way
