How it feels

A tense, methodical game of espionage and manipulation where you carefully manage resources and relationships in a dark, mysterious setting.

What players say

Players praise the espionage concept and cipher puzzles but overwhelmingly say the game is unfinished, with a UI that breaks down once you manage more than a few agents and bugs that have gone unfixed since 2022. Opinions split on whether the core loop is worth the jank.
