Dead Weight

Two weights hang from a single rope. Both are falling. You have one hand.

Save one - and you fling the other down harder. That's Dead Weight: a brutal, beautiful one-touch survival game about the impossible choice you have to make every single second.

THE CRUEL HOOK
Hold the LEFT or RIGHT side to haul that weight up. But you can only ever hold one. Every save sends the OTHER weight plunging. Keep BOTH off the floor for as long as you can. Saving one weight dooms the other - and you have to choose anyway.

ONE TOUCH. ZERO MERCY.
- Dead-simple controls: one or two thumbs, a thumb per side.
- Difficulty ramps fast - a flawless run tops out around 35 seconds.
- Your score accelerates the longer you survive, peaking at the 18-second mark.
- No tutorials, no fluff. You'll understand it in one tap and curse it for hours.

BUILT FOR "ONE MORE TRY"
Runs last seconds, not minutes. The perfect pocket game for a bus stop, a coffee line, or a quick adrenaline hit between meetings. Pick it up, get wrecked, go again.
