About the Game

Dead Scrap is currently under development.

In the desolate expanse of the Reach, a once-thriving space colony, you find yourself stranded amid the ruins following a devastating calamity that has nearly obliterated its population. In this dystopian nightmare, the chaos has unleashed rogue robots and malfunctioning AI systems, turning on the very people they were designed to serve. As the colony's infrastructure collapses, the societal divide deepens: the affluent disappear into fortified enclaves while the less fortunate are left to fend for themselves, scrounging for the scarce resources that remain.

Caught in this brutal world, you must harness your ingenuity and resilience. Scavenge through the wreckage for supplies, craft tools and weapons, build shelters, and fend off both mechanical and human threats. Each decision you make could mean the difference between life and death in the unforgiving, anarchic landscape of the Reach. Survive at all costs, and uncover the dark secrets behind the colony's downfall as you navigate through this treacherous, post-apocalyptic survival horror simulator.

Survival Horror Odyssey In the Reach

As you explore the remnants of this once-bustling society, uncover secrets tied to the mysterious phenomenon of necroevolution that reshaped both humans and machines.
  • Total Freedom in a Ruined World: In the vast ruins of the Reach, you command your fate. Navigate through both expansive and oppressive environments, making critical decisions at every turn. Choose to align with enigmatic characters, aid the desperate, exploit those less fortunate, or forsake all humanity to survive on your terms.
  • Innovative Scavenging and Crafting: Experience a uniquely immersive scavenging system where every discarded item holds potential. High-end resources are a rare commodity, necessitating clever improvisation to convert everyday junk into life-saving tools.
  • Scavenge Everything: If it’s slower than you and not fixed in place, it’s yours for the taking. For everything else, there’s your gun and your trusty grinder. This fully scavengable world challenges you to utilize everything you can get your hands on to stay alive.
  • Complex Characters and Alliances: The Reach is filled with conflicted and intriguing survivors. Deciding whom to trust is a perilous game, yet trust you must. Your survival could depend on the alliances you forge, or the enemies you make.
  • Survival Your Way: Build a secure base to withstand sieges from relentless foes, or live off the land as a nomad, moving from one refuge to the next. Whether you fortify a permanent home or live a life unbound, the choice is yours.

Experience the brutal reality of life in the Reach, where every decision impacts your survival and the fate of the colony itself. In this survival horror simulator, how you choose to live in the aftermath of disaster defines your journey.
