About

Kilcount is a role-playing game set in the aftermath of a devastating galactic war. You take control of a group of survivors, children, elderly, and animals, struggling to stay alive aboard a derelict warship. The story unfolds through dialogue and exploration as you manage resources, navigate hostile environments, and make choices that shape relationships. Combat is sparse but tense, focusing on survival rather than spectacle. The game emphasizes quiet moments and moral dilemmas, with a narrative driven by the fragile bonds between characters. The game’s strength lies in its poignant storytelling and atmospheric world. Sparse but evocative dialogue and environmental details paint a grim yet hopeful picture of humanity’s remnants. Players appreciate the lack of traditional RPG combat grind, replaced by a focus on character dynamics and ethical decisions. With a 78% rating on Steam, fans praise its emotional depth and unconventional approach to post-apocalyptic fiction. The setting feels lived-in, with each ship and character carrying the weight of a fallen civilization.
