About the Game

CypherWars is a cyberpunk-themed, Drug Wars-inspired, buy-low, sell-high arbitrage simulator roguelite set in the Maxx Cypher universe. Travel from node to node, buying and selling digital contraband for maximum profit, pay off your debt to the Syndicate, and try to maintain the highest net worth possible before your runner session runs out of cycles. But, watch out! Warden Stryker is always on the hunt for runners who strike it big in the grid and is ruthless when he catches you!
