About the Game

You and your friends are clunky expendable robots sent to scavenge dangerous islands, survive hostile facilities, recover valuable tech, and extract before everything goes wrong.

No two missions take your squad to the same place twice. Explore the dangerous islands of the Custody Zone. Break into abandoned facilities. Adapt to new routes, layouts, enemies, and challenges with every deployment. The deeper you go, the harder it gets.

Standard Expendabot units come equipped with portable 3D printing hardware for emergency field fabrication. Scavenge material and print survival gear, questionable tools, and desperate distractions. If it works, it was standard procedure.

Threats react to sight, sound, or both. Sneak through the dark. Hide when they get too close. Keep your voice down, kill your lights, and run when the plan collapses. Some things can be avoided. Others just need to be survived and preferably not led back to your squad.

You are replaceable. The mission is not. When a unit falls, teammates can recover its heart and bring it back in a brand-new body. Keep the squad moving, extract valuable tech, and turn today’s wreckage into tomorrow’s upgrades.
