LUCK > skill
Mostly luck, some skill. The rules are lame. For example, complete a sector and all resources RESET. The game tried to be RPG-ish by letting you continue to get a "score-streak" but seriously... The RESET RUINS this game. And lets talk about LUCK...
A massive RANDOM factor makes this game LUCK-DRIVEN. Random viruses will appear on board. You are constantly out-numbered. Some viruses teleport, others go thru walls. You are LUCKY if the ideal opposing program appears. Too much LUCK involved.
FYI, this plays like turn-based Pacman: move around the grid, avoid viruses, lure them into firing positions. HOPE you see an opposing program. HOPE the grid corridors are scattered to yor advantage. Complete a sector, RESET.
COMPLETELY LAME although amusing AND annoying. No stats, just a hacked up leaderboard. Too easy to lose, too much luck involved. Not worth the price.

Great, short puzzle roguelike
Your goal is to get points through 8 levels and if you survive, continue a new run and see how far your score can go. There’s lots of smart game design here which is only made better in the upcoming sequel 868-BACK. It’s a small scope game, but the interactions and theme really do feel like a pulse pounding heist on the final level when you’re trying to escape with your hacked point total.
Very fun to play at a group gathering or have friends to compare scores with. If there was ever a roguelike only arcade, this would go right next to the Spelunky cabinet.
Go to mobile game
This game in particular is deceptively simplistic looking. Good depth in these games.
The games are easy to jump into and out of.
If you wanna step up and go to AA experiences, another deceptively simplistic looking game is the one by the creators of FTL - ‘Into the Breach’.
Mobile essentials.
Thanks for the Update
Love 868 hack but control issues on iPhone
The problem with the iOS port is that you move up by dragging your character up which on iOS causes you to pull up your Lock Screen.
It’s not game breaking but I wish you could just tap or something

Needs To Be Updated

Less is more
This is the first review I’ve ever written because I was moved by the recent update note. It also inspired me to purchase MB’s other games to support a creative indie developer doing something unique.
The haters are wrong
This game is a procgen strategy/puzzle tour-de-force with near-infinite depth, you just need to be clever enough to figure out how to survive! ;)
