I've enjoyed playing this game for the couple of hours I've picked it up, as it has the easy to learn; difficult to master edge to a game which I think is the real hallmark of a great game
The game is seemingly simple - just four dudes assaulting ships, in a Space Hulk-esque vibe- but there's an obvious depth of complexity and decision making. I agonised over what set up to take on the missions, and became fondly attached to anyone who survived more than one mission
Overall it's a hard, engaging and enjoyable game

Dead Metal has been an enjoyable tactical game. You can build your team members
and go into missions to complete the main objective. There are a variety of classes
to choose from, and I've found the combat to be very satisfying. The abilities you
unlock as you level up your characters are always something to look forward to.
I haven't had an opportunity to try out the multiplayer yet, but I feel like this game would be a blast with friends!
Thematically, the game feels cohesive. The art, music, and gameplay all work together
to provide a wonderful gaming experience.
It's great that the game is regularly updated, I look forward to seeing this game evolve as it moves into the future.
You don't need to be a strategy game junkie to find this game enjoyable. I think you could find enjoyment at all levels of gameplay, whether you wanted to take it more casually, or really squeeze the efficiency out of your build and allocation of Action Points.
If you're thinking about trying this game, absolutely give it a shot, I think you'll enjoy it.

I am Pizzle and this is a review on this delectable game cate I'd rate 10/10 not only is the sound track amazing but there is tons of things to do there is a good combination of abilities, rare drops and the mobs add interesting tactics... if you pop an egg you're in for a good surprise <3
Update at 58 hours in the game you should buy it isn't for those with a weak mind like the only negative comment on the game so far lmao.

Dead Metal is an awesome tactical roguelite experience. The strategic game play is challenging yet rewarding. There are mysteries in the universe and variety in character abilities which encourages you to explore and try out unique builds. Even in early access, i can see Dead Metal has huge potential for adding tons of new content. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a tactical sci-fi roguelite.

After finishing the mandatory tutorial, upon trying to assault the same pirate base - to farm for XP and drops, the enemies instead wiped my team in three turns. Balance is [b]clearly[/b] a major priority here. I'll try back in six or seven months.

Very nice, has a bunch of potential!! Glad I supported this one, hopefully it continues to be developed because the core that is here is quite cool. Worth checking out, feels similar to something like Templar Battleforce or an early Trese Brothers RPG. Definitely looking forward to what's to come, thanks dev!

Dead Metal combines all the things I love in a game. It's got the turn-based strategy combat like an xcom/tactics ogre mixed with diablo style random loot and the unforgiving permadeath of a roguelike.
