About Dread Admiral
Dread Admiral is a turn-based naval roguelite in which you command a persistent fleet across a hostile archipelago. Ships you build carry over between missions, but ships you lose are gone forever. Each turn spent on a mission leaves less time for the future and brings the Black Fleet closer to engulfing you.
Campaign decisions
Choose when to fight and when to flee as you pursue missions with unpredictable modifiers. Each turn, you must decide whether to gather more resources and ships or abandon your mission to buy time. AI Admirals have distinct personalities and tactics, and the AI adapts its fleet and economy to yours.
Fleet and progression
Combat uses alternating activations, so you and your opponent take turns looking for the best move. Each ship has a defined role. You can earn ranks, unlock Perks and technology, and gain upgrades for your Flagship even when you lose.
Campaigns play out differently, and you can fail mission objectives, run out of time or lose ships permanently. Victory may come by a slim margin.
