''Dead Angle'', also known as ''Lead Angle'' (リードアングル) and ''Gang Hunter'', is a 1988 arcade shooter game developed by Seibu Kaihatsu. It is the follow-up to the company's mobster-themed '' Empire City: 1931''. In ''Dead Angle'', players take control of the game's protagonist, who must rescue his girlfriend from a mob boss.
