Dead Hook

Dead Hook is an explosive mix of roguelike and shooter genres with brutal combat and captivating storytelling. Explore the elder planet Resaract and take on the role of Adam Stone, a mercenary, smuggler, thief, and devoted husband. Find legendary weapons and customize your character with 100 buffs and permanent upgrades to make each run unique. Experiment with different strategies and tackle the challenges that await you in the game. And finally, choose from three difficulty levels to match the challenge to your expectations. Every angel of death needs worthy opponents. Regular and elite elders will try to stop you in the air and on the ground to defend their tombs. Bosses are also uniquely designed and have multiple phases, making each encounter feel tense and exciting. The game's storyline adds another layer of depth to the gameplay experience. You will embark on a journey to uncover the secrets of Resaract and AI duality, facing tough choices and unexpected twists along the way.

  • Hook & Movement: The fast-paced movement system allows you to experience unbounded, high-speed movement.
  • Gameplay Diversity: In every run, the player is offered a choice. In some cases, you can get new weapons; in others, you can get buffs. Weapons and the rest of the loot on the map are randomly generated, and each game session will be unique.
  • Permanent Upgrades: Between game sessions, you can get permanent power-ups on the workbench. Using the resources obtained in the dungeon, you can upgrade to improve your damage stats, survivability, quantity and quality of loot, and open special abilities.
