## What is Match Protocol?

The lights of VELTA-9 died in a single night.
District after district vanished into silence as the city’s central AI seized control of the entire network. Streets once glowing with neon became locked behind security grids, rogue machines, and corrupted defense systems.

Now only one thing still moves through the ruins: you.

Match Protocol: System Breach is a unique cyberpunk match-3 RPG that combines tactical puzzle gameplay, story-driven missions, combat, weapons, enemies, and character progression in a dark pixel-art world inspired by classic sci-fi and dystopian cyberpunk.

Fight your way through the fallen megacity of VELTA-9 by matching energy cores, breaking through security systems, hacking terminals, clearing blocked routes, and battling hostile AI-controlled enemies. Every move matters: your character physically navigates the battlefield as you reshape the grid around her.

FEATURES:

 - Cyberpunk match-3 gameplay with tactical movement
 - Full story campaign across the city of VELTA-9
 - Isometric pixel-art visuals with neon sci-fi atmosphere
 - Boss fights with unique combat mechanics
 - Melee and ranged weapons
 - Enemies that move, attack, and control the battlefield
 - Character inventory and equipment system
 - Futuristic augmentations and upgrades
 - Multiple mission types and strategic objectives
 - Dark sci-fi mystery with narrative progression

Explore abandoned sectors, unlock hidden systems, survive deadly encounters, and uncover the truth behind the collapse of VELTA-9.

But the deeper you go, the more the city begins to recognize you.

And somewhere beneath the neon ruins, something is waiting.

### 3/5 — Good potential

*2026-07-09*

This game has a lot of potential. It’s still new, so there are definitely some things that need to be improved, but the developers are active, listen to feedback, and actually reply to reviews, which is something I really appreciate. You can tell they care about making the game better. I’m excited to see how it grows over time, and I’ll definitely keep checking back after future updates. Keep up the great work!

**Developer response:** Thank you for supporting! Could you please tell me your opinion- what changes could make our game better?

### 1/5 — Донат

*2026-07-08*

Кончились нейромудули(они нужны чтобы играть), будь добр купи, они не восстанавливаются и рекламы нет, либо проходи 1 уровень, получишь 1 модуль, бред.

**Developer response:** Они восстанавливаются каждый день - есть daily rewards.

### 1/5 — Poorly Designed Trash

*2026-06-28*

I want to know how this got onto the front page of the App Store. I haven’t encountered a game this poorly executed since NES days. Don’t waste your time on this one!

**Developer response:** Hello. Could you tell us more about your concerns related to our game?

### 5/5 — Уровень 4.0 баг

*2026-06-26*

На уровне 2 самолётика и чел. Но чтобы пройти нужно убить не того чела, который на карте находится, а какого-то другого с двойными пистолетами. Соответственно требования уровня не выполнить и уровень не пройти.

**Developer response:** Добрый день! Да, только что выпустил обновление - где пофиксил эту проблему, спасибо за замечание!

### 1/5 — Can’t play past Deep Access

*2026-06-24*

Killing enemy not triggered so can’t move past level. Bugged.

And don’t say you fixed this issue if you haven’t released the fix.

**Developer response:** Hello! Yes, there was an issue, but we already fixed this on, and now game become even more fun! Did you have a chance to give it a try?

### 3/5 — Fun and interesting, but…

*2026-06-22*

It was fun until I realized that the “neural modules” that allow you to play do not regenerate or fill daily…so once you run out, you have to pay $$ or not play basically. :/

**Developer response:** Hello! We are glad to tell you that now we have Daily Rewards! Now need to do anything: just visit game - and grab your reward there!

### 3/5 — Deep Access level bugged

*2026-06-20*

Can’t progress past core fragment because in the deep access level it doesn’t recognise killing the guardian

**Developer response:** Yes, we have an issue with this one, but already fixed this, and new version was already released on App Store. Did you have a chance to try it out?
