Dread Weight

Dread Weight is a story game set in a crumbling mansion, where an ancient witch hunts you and four other adults. You search for items, set traps, solve puzzles and uncover hidden secrets as you explore deeper into the mansion.

Explore the mansion

A new inventory system lets you unlock areas and solve puzzles. Vengeful spirits can attack you, so moving quickly can prevent an assault. Encountering ghosts rewards you with more story content, and death does not end the story or bring up a Game Over screen.

Story and endings

The game combines real-world history with European folklore and mixes cute elements with horror. It is a sequel to Cooking Companions, but can be played as a new story. Returning players can find additional Chompettes, sidequests and story told from the MC's perspective. There are 12 endings, 164 pieces of artwork and 80 Steam achievements. The game contains no gratuitous violence or gore and no swearing.
