Players command a team of robots infiltrating futuristic corporate headquarters to shut down physical operations and corrupt digital networks. Each round offers a randomized sequence of programming directives that dictate the allowed order of physical, digital and command actions; players must plan action order, skip directives at the cost of incomplete turns, or pay action dice to disobey them. Exploration across multi-floor neoprene layouts grants new items and abilities while encountering guards, viruses and building defenses tied to each CEO’s threat meter. The game supports solo and cooperative play and ends when objectives are completed, the command module is lost, or the threat level maxes out.
