About the Game

Live or die in Deniers—a city that masks its scarred darkness with uproarious laughter. What do you need to survive here? The answer is Capit. With enough Capit, you can hang out with friends, play as a savvy investor, or upgrade your team’s combat skills. Shade, a brilliant 19-year-old hacker, has already learned this hard truth.

  • Complete the heist

Lead a crew of up to four playable characters, each wielding the elements. Deploy high-tech weapon drones and control 5 elemental powers -Combustion, Refrigerant, Gaia, Conduction, and Gale- to complete the heist perfectly and earn the Capit. The gameplay of heists are heavily inspired by Vampire Survivors and Magic Survival.

  • Expand your business

Stealing the Capit is the easy part—keeping it looking legitimate is the challenge. As a master hacker, your greatest asset is hiding-hiding yourself, and hiding the origin of your loot. Establish 'front' businesses like a laundromat or a restaurant and run them to launder your dirty Capit. The bigger the businesses, the more Capit you can launder. Also, you can run your businesses legally.
