Dead Reckoning

A warrior and a stolen artefact

Dead Reckoning is a PC side-scrolling action game set in a dark cyber-fantasy world. You play a retired warrior drawn back into a fight after a secretive cult steals the artefact he spent years guarding. The game follows his pursuit of the cult, whose work grows more unsettling as you go.

Combat and weapons

You dash through attacks with invincibility frames, switch between a sword and spear, and charge strikes for heavier hits. Landing enough attacks builds a special meter for a powerful blast. The combat is built around timing and reflexes, with enemies designed to matter rather than serve as background obstacles.
