Dead Weight is a Lovecraftian steampunk tactical roguelite game inspired by Into The Breach and Final Fantasy Tactics.

Follow the will of the Ancient Gods to uncover the truth behind this fractured world.

Dead Weight features stunning pixel art combined with hardcore tactical turn-based gameplay. 4 playable pirates, dozens of weapons, armour pieces and character skills will provide tactical freedom and build variety that will make every single run unique.

With more than 150 000 Steam wishlists, Dead Weight is currently among the platform’s top-400 most wishlisted upcoming games.
