You're probably drawn to this game because of it's turn-based game play and aesthetics reminiscent of Darkest Dungeon. Don't waste your time. This game is unplayable, glitchy, beyond repetitive and just not fun at all. The interface is difficult. This is just a terrible game. I know the price is low, but this is still not worth it. Avoid at all costs.

About the Game

In a grim dystopian future, where mankind has scattered across the galaxy and the human society has split into two distinct classes, you are a poor stateless outcast forced to live off scraps from derelict alien stations and ships in the outer space, yet you dream of becoming a privileged citizen and living on the surface of a habitable planet, enjoying non-synthetic air, water and food. A fabled alien derelict ship somewhere within the Deep Sky sector of space is your voucher for a citizenship and a promise of cozy life on a hospitable planet.
Build and control a squad of up to three mercenary characters and set on to explore derelict ships within your reach from the scavenger's base. Searching the derelicts for loot and clues, you come across many friendly inhabitants and traders, but more often – various enemies. Challenge and defeat them in tactical turn-based fights, where randomly-drawn cards form your changing arsenal of combat actions, gain experience for yourself and your crew, loot dead bodies, resupply and upgrade once back at your base. The scavenger's home ship gives you the opportunity to heal and level-up your mercenaries, recruit new ones, equip them, upgrade their gear or recharge energy for life support during missions.
Key Features:
- Fresh take on turn-based combat with cards
- Refined sci-fi comic book look & feel
- Endless customization options for characters and scavenging teams
- High replay value thanks to procedural generation of content
- Story of the human society divided within a dystopian universe
- Two game modes: story and arena

It is a decent game but lots (and I mean: a LOT) of bugs. Some of them are realy frustrating. Bought it at 85% off and I am not sure I can recommend it even at this price
terrible game, needs more polish and the style of exploration/traversing the map doesn't build fun/excitement. Felt tedious and uninteresting. Disappointed at the battle, could've added some animations n such. Overall feels like an alpha sales pitch.
very buggy, and crashes constantly. very bad or non existing QA for this one This scammer company wont refund a purchase of a broken game, with blocker bugs with no workaround, constant crashes and system hangs! DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!
Great game when the UI doesn't lock up and force you to restart the program
eh
Fun thus far. Reminiscent of Darkest Dungeon, especially in the art style. Could benefit from a bit more polish.
I thought it was going to be boring, but turned out to actually be fun. Normally I'm not a fan of turn based combat, but I guess I just haven't played the right game.
Pretty fun game for those who like casual games that you can second monitor something whilst playing. Loads of QoL updates would make this game a whole lot better
Crunchy like a freeze dried ice cream! mmmmm Juggling energy, squad tactics, timing...it's god it all. Deep Sky Derelicts is basically Darkest Dungeon in space with cards. Grimy derelict ships, scavenging for loot, tracking down the 'mother-ship'. Play it, its awesome!
