About the game
Hijack enemy processes. Steal their kits. A tactical roguelike on a 7×7 grid where every enemy is carrying something you can take lifesteal, defense, entire ability kits. Build from 250+ programs. The system adapts to hunt you. Permadeath. No negotiations.
Original Steam description
You're a rogue process loose in a corrupted mainframe. Seven tiles by seven. Every enemy on the grid is carrying something you can take.
Identity Hijack
From Sector 4 onward, absorb minibosses and enemies to take their entire program kit. Lifesteal, defense, whatever they were running is now yours. Some kits come with penalties attached. High reward, high risk.
Adaptive Threats
The minibosses you face are shaped by how you play. Change your approach and different things come hunting you. Every run is one of a kind.
250+ Programs
Build your loadout from a library of over 250 programs with stacking synergies. Every absorb changes what you're capable of, and what you're capable of changes what you should absorb next.
Every Run Is New
Procedurally generated floors, a shop between fights, and escalating difficulty as you push deeper into the system.
Permadeath
Get deleted and you start over. The grid doesn't negotiate.
