About the Game

YOU ARE THE LAST OPERATOR

IRON GRAVES is a tactical roguelike where you pilot a squad of remote-controlled drones to board and scavenge procedurally generated derelict spaceships.

Stranded in a graveyard of dead ships, your survival depends on fuel, scrap, and unstable technology. From the safety of your shuttle, you guide your drones through breached airlocks into the unknown.

EXPLORE

  • Remote Command Interface: Use a pseudo-terminal interface and tactical map to issue commands. Open doors, disable security systems, and override generators.

  • Procedural Derelicts: No two ships are the same. Explore military cruisers, industrial haulers, and research vessels, each with unique layouts and hazards.

SURVIVE

  • Atmospheric Horror: Rely on motion sensors and limited camera feeds. The dark is not empty. Monitoring your surroundings is key to avoiding what lurks in the shadows.

  • Permadeath: Once a drone is lost, it's gone forever. If your shuttle runs out of fuel or is destroyed, the game is over.

UPGRADE

  • Drone Customization: Scavenge upgrades like motion scanners, towing arms, and mining lasers. Repair and adapt your drone fleet to survive deeper expeditions.

  • Resource Management: Every jump costs fuel. Every breached door risks hull integrity. Manage your resources carefully to reach the next sector alive.

!! MAC USERS: If the game crashes on launch, please check the pinned workaround in the Discussion forum.
