About the Game

Humanity is no longer born. It is authorized.

You awaken to an unfamiliar world and a body the system refuses to explain. Under the rule of CORE, society has been rebuilt around the GENESIS Protocol — a mandate that controls reproduction, identity, and human existence itself.

Uncover who you truly are, what happened in the past, and why the truth seems to elude you at every turn.

No Health. Only Heart.

A unique heart-rate health system replaces traditional life bars. Taking damage sends your pulse climbing, pushing you closer to 'catastrophic cardiac disassembly'.

Classic Turns. Modern Violence.

A hybrid AATB battle system blends classic turn-based strategy with dynamic action timing. Plan your moves, watch the action bar, and unleash cinematic attacks with brutal cyberpunk impact.

Looting is Life

Scavenge lockers, crates, and even enemy corpses for valuable resources, cybernetic upgrades, medical supplies, weapons, and random junk that might just keep you alive.

Aim to Kill

Some skills demand more than a menu click. Time your strikes, execute input combinations, mash through pressure, or directly target enemies to land stronger hits.
