We officially admit it — we have absolutely no idea how to properly write game descriptions! Usually, this is where people write something like… Match Three. Or Four. Or Five. Or Whatever. Match stones by color on the board — three in a row, four, five, or not in a row at all. Just combine them and watch them pop and disappear. Every popped stone = your character landing a hit on the enemy. The bigger the combo, the bigger the responsibility! Unlock Skills Each of you can choose your own path of character progression. Pick, experiment, and try out new skills dispensed by a sarcastic arcade machine. Build your unique set of abilities and smear villains across the walls of digital space! Upgrade Your Skills Use resources earned in battle to improve your skill… Wait. We haven’t even explained what these “skills” actually are yet! SKILLS! Abilities…. or even SUPER-ABILITIES, manifested by fighters inside augmented reality. You can become faster and stronger. You can knock your enemy out with a good joke. Or you can go old school and punch them in the face - with extra style. MAKE YOUR ESCAPE! So why do all of this in the first place? To help the creator of Ciphergram escape from a French prison, where he was illegally thrown by order of the Macronomicon! A parade of the strangest enemies stands between you and freedom — making your escape not only challenging, but hilariously fun. Watch. Read. Listen. Every action, movement, and transition is packed with eye candy. While your eyes beg for “more and more!”, your ears are wrapped in a smooth soundtrack that delivers pure arcade vibes (yes, you don’t have to mute this game). All of this is seasoned with an intriguing story - we wrote it ourselves. By hand! We swear.
