How it feels
A tense, strategic roguelike where every move matters and failure means being deleted alive.

What players say
A minimalist roguelike on small grids with a steep difficulty curve. Players praise its depth despite simple rules, balancing risk and reward through high-score chasing. The game demands learning enemy behaviour and careful positioning, often described as a turn-based puzzle akin to Pac-Man. Players split on the tutorial's adequacy, and many recommend it as a precursor to the sequel 868-BACK.
