Game Summary
Orbiting a planet somewhere deep in space, hangs a derelict cargo ship. Emergency power on. The corridors, the halls, and rooms, all empty... Lifeless,.. adrift. Below, countless alien insects, Dross, sleep near the fading power of the system core. Endlessly growing, hatching, consuming...
We are War Dogs. Hired to kill all things alien. Eradicate the Dross. Reclaim this derelict ship back to the powers that be. Now, we fly to breach the hull. To claim our footing before the assault.
Next, we fight. Spearheading the formation, you, and your team of five loyal soldiers stand ready to listen to your every command. To fight, and to die, for you...
In Dereliction, control a squad of soldiers to take back a space ship from an alien infestation
