About the Game

Exiled from an organisation of elite killers, and now being hunted by them. You’re on a mission to take them down and get back your life. Take out the local, national, international and ultimately the global head of the organisation in order to bring them to their knees once and for all.

Choosing from 5 unique specialists, battle through waves of hand crafted encounters, taking on bosses with brutal raid-like mechanics. Work through 4 zones to secure your freedom, and once you’ve done that, prove you truly are the best with end-game modifiers for a near limitless challenge.
