About This Game

Research is war.

Helix Dynamics and Ferrox Industries are locked in a ruthless war over a single resource: brains. Every scientist working in your lab earns money and pushes your research forward. Every scientist stolen from the enemy hurts where it counts: the bottom line.

Recruit. Kidnap. Sabotage.

  • Recruit the independent researchers in the middle of the map and escort them to your lab… under enemy fire.
  • Kidnap the rival company's scientists, right from the heart of their base.
  • Sabotage their lab benches, their coffee machine and their armoured doors: a scientist without coffee is a scientist who produces nothing.
  • Research new weapons and gadgets: pulse rifle, Tesla cannon, disintegrator, cluster grenades, proximity mines, exoskeleton…

Attack… or hold the base.

Every lab has a weak spot: a different secret entrance on every map (a geyser, a teleporter, an air vent, a freight boxcar, a trapdoor…). It's up to you to seal them off. Grab the blowtorch, nail up planks, weld on steel plates, repair under fire, switch on the defence turret and lay traps: glue, oil, electrified floors, laser alarms, steam jets… While some attack, others defend.

And there's a T-Rex.

Free it from its paddock and watch it devour the other team. Or dodge freight trains, giant bowling balls, a sentry gun, the zombies of the quarantine zone and the museum's security lasers.

Features

  • 20 unique maps: campus, orbital station, a giant desk where you're shrunk down, Jurassic valley, cosmic bowling alley, souk, Bordeaux waterfront, abyssal base, ski resort, museum…
  • Online multiplayer over Steam: Quick match, public games or friends only (up to 8 players, filled with bots), or on a local network.
  • Solo against bots, with 4 difficulty levels and a guided tutorial.
  • A choice-based research tree: 3 projects offered each time, while your rival picks its own.
  • Scientists who actually work: lab benches, whiteboards, the coffee machine, experiments and eureka moments that speed up your research. And panic when bullets fly too close.
  • Base defence: barricades to weld and reinforce with steel, turrets and traps unique to each map.
  • Steam achievements, a profile with unlockable looks, photo mode.
  • Keyboard/mouse and gamepad (Xbox, PlayStation).
  • 12 languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese (Brazil), Italian, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Turkish.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Promotional artwork (capsules, banner) was created with the help of generative AI tools. The game’s code was written with AI assistance. 3D models, maps, sounds and music are produced by that code (procedural generation), with no AI-generated assets. No content is generated by AI during gameplay.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Cartoon-style first-person shooter with low-poly characters. Players shoot rival agents, scientists, zombies and robots. Characters who are hit release stylized blood splatter and collapse. No dismemberment or graphic executions. A “child mode” in the options replaces blood with sparks.
