About I Am Overburdened

An artifact hunter fills twenty inventory slots while exploring procedural dungeons drawn from authored layouts. More than a hundred distinct artifacts can grant reactive skills and other abilities. Permadeath makes each short run a fresh survival attempt rather than a guaranteed climb in character power.

What makes it worth a look?

  • A journal records monsters and artifacts, while the Hall of Fame preserves strong runs.
  • A comic story of puns and strange evils unfolds in a world where the practice of magic has been lost.

Is this game right for you or your group?

  • Equipment supplies strength. Artifacts grant abilities and reactive skills rather than relying on kills alone for power.
  • Plan within a run. A large inventory supports combinations, but permadeath keeps the expedition at risk.
