About This Game

WARNING: This game is not recommended for people with photosensitive epilepsy.




Cruelty Squad is a tactical first person shooter set in the hardcore gig economy of corporate liquidations. You're an emotionally dead combat-substance fueled grunt of Cruelty Squad, a depraved subsidiary company tasked with performing wetworks for its host conglomerate. Will you make the Corporate Arch Demoness proud or succumb to bitter tears of failure?



  • Highly kinematic tactical gameplay using varied weapons such as the flechette shotgun, silenced 10mm pistol, radiation emitter, dart gun, corrosive gas launcher and more.
  • No handholding!
  • All of the missions have multiple viable approaches and routes. Plan out your equipment loadout to gain a tactical advantage. Choose between non-lethal and lethal options. Throw toilet bowls at enemies.
  • Fight and sneak through offices, suburbs, police stations and secret compounds. Find and unlock hidden equipment and levels.
  • Open objective based gameplay, in each mission your goal is to kill or destroy your targets before heading for the exit.
  • Revisit earlier missions and try to beat your best time. Can you S-rank all of the missions?
  • Enemies including private security, cops, psycho freaks, flower hybrids, swamp cultists and mutant dogs.
  • Talk to NPCs and figure out the mysteries of the world.
  • Advanced death mechanics.
  • Stock and organ market simulation.
  • Punishment mode.
