About the Game
Deadshot is a retro-styled first-person shooter about surviving a mutant apocalypse, inspired by classics like Half Life, Doom and Quake.
Deadshot is a single-player indie shooter from developer and publisher v0lt, tagged under action on Steam. It is a first-person shooter built in a deliberately retro style, and the store page names its influences directly: classics like Half Life, Doom and Quake, along with many games in the same vein. If those titles shaped your favourite shooters, this is clearly aimed at you.
The premise is grim. You wake up as an army soldier in the middle of a mutant apocalypse. Something happened to the world overnight, and almost everyone either became a mutant or died. You are apparently the only person left who can figure out what happened and put a stop to it.
The core loop mixes exploration with combat. You move through tunnels, laboratories, buildings and storage areas, searching for secrets, collecting items you need to progress, and killing mutants to survive. The arsenal includes 7 different weapons and 5 weapon attachments, which gives you a reasonable amount of choice in how you approach each fight.
The campaign is structured as 3 chapters with 6 levels each, so there is a clear sense of progress across the game. The store description leans into the shooting itself, promising plenty of killing, while the soundtrack by White Eyes, Noxtromo and Torturerr is singled out as a highlight. Full controller support, including DUALSHOCK and DualSense, means you can play with a gamepad if you prefer.

Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Deadshot suits players who miss the feel of older-school shooters and want a focused single-player campaign with a straightforward premise. Fans of exploration-heavy shooters who enjoy hunting for secrets through tight, mutant-filled locations will likely get the most out of it. Gamepad players will also appreciate the full controller support.
Not Recommended For
If you want multiplayer, co-op or a modern open-world shooter, Deadshot is not what you are looking for, since it is listed as single-player. Players who expect a polished modern presentation may also find the retro look a step back. English is the only supported language, so anyone who needs Traditional Chinese text should skip it.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Deadshot holds a Steam review label of Very Positive, which is 極度好評 on the Taiwan store, with 86.97% of reviews positive. That is a strong result, one step below the top tier on Steam's scale. The review volume is in the hundreds of reviews, far below the hundreds of thousands seen on major releases.
Steam's label is based on the share of positive reviews, so a small number of reviews means each new opinion can move the percentage noticeably. A score built on a few hundred reviews is a useful signal that the game is well received by its players, but it is less stable than a score backed by a huge tally. Read a few recent reviews on the Steam page to see whether the retro style and gameplay match what you want.

All prices here are Taiwan Steam store prices in NT$. Deadshot currently sells for NT$ 117, which is also its regular price, its highest price in our record and its lowest paid price so far, with the lowest paid price recorded on 2026-10-27. The price has held flat in our records.
The game has never been discounted in our record, though it has been free to keep on some days and we have logged one previous free-to-keep promotion. Our price record is still short, so this verdict is tentative. A flat NT$ 117 with no discounts so far means a sale is not guaranteed, although free-to-keep promotions have happened before.
Is now a good time? NT$ 117 is the only price we have seen, so buying now is reasonable if the premise and retro style appeal to you. If you would rather wait, a wishlist and sale notifications are the low-effort way to catch any change, but there is no guarantee a discount will come.
