''Dead Meets Lead'' is a [[Top Down View|Top Down]] [[Hack and Slash]] game by Swedish [[Indie Game|indie developer]] Keldyn Interactive, released on May 3rd, 2011 for PC via digital download.
 
[[The Colonial Period|It is 1716.]] [[The British Empire]] has uncovered evidence of [[The Plague|a deadly plague]] ravaging the tropical islands of El Mirando and Rugged Nest. [[The Church]], suspecting [[Burn the Witch|witchcraft]] and [[Black Magic|foul sorcery]], assembles [[Send in The Search Team|a strike team]] of good, god-fearing English soldiers to go in and clean house. However, a storm strikes their ship en-route, and [[Kill 'Em All|it sinks with all hands]] [[Sole Survivor|save one]]. [[Player Character|You are]] [[The Captain]], [[Anti -Hero|a ruthless]] [[Blood Knight]]. [[Knight Templar|As a fanatically devout Christian,]] [[Determinator|you have sworn to cleanse the island of infection-]] [[Zombie Infectee|in spite of being infected yourself.]]
 
Players control [[The Captain]] with the WASD keys to move and the mouse to aim and shoot/slash, and proceed to hack their way through hordes (and we do mean ''[[Multi Mook Melee|hordes]]'') [[Night of the Living Mooks|of zombies.]] Each level is divided into stages, and [[Find the Cure|the objective is to reach a chest on the far end that contains]] [[MacGuffin|an antidote vial to stave off the infection.]] At the player's disposal are three different melee weapons and four different guns. Players earn silver and gold coins for slaying zombies and completing levels, and they are used to purchase new weapons and unlock new levels, respectively.
 
[[So Okay ItsIt's Average|Reviews were mixed.]] But digital pirates certainly thought it was good, [[Digital Piracy Is Evil|so good in fact, that the game was complete financial failure for the developer.]] As of January 1st, 2012, the game is available as [[Freeware Games|freeware]]. Get it [http://deadmeetslead.com/ here.]

=== ''Dead Meets Lead'' provides examples of: ===
Line 28:
* [[Multi Mook Melee]]: The number of zombies on screen can reach staggering amounts.
* [[Night of the Living Mooks]]
* [[One -Hit Polykill]]: The Cannon hits multiple enemies in a line. The "Ghost Bullet" [[Special Attack]] doesn't actually harm the zombies it passes through, [[Stuff Blowing Up|but it explodes]] when it reaches what you aimed at.
* [[Piranha Problem]]: [[Border Patrol|Any body of water deeper then ankle-depth]] is filled with ill-tempered piranha that will chew off The Captain's health- [[Extreme Omnivore|but they'll also do this to zombies.]] Getting ten zombies killed in this way gets you the "Fish Food" [[Cosmetic Award|achievement.]]
* [[Raising the Steaks]]: Literally- zombie cows! Dogs, also. The dogs are [[Goddamned Bats]] and are best fought using a gun.
