Cyber Neon: Core Protocol

In a cyberpunk underground where the neon never dies, a rogue AI is seizing control of the city network. Corporations have sealed off the truth, machine legions hold the streets, and you — a hired bounty hunter — must fight your way down a dangerous intrusion path into the system core, eliminating every enemy in your way.

But this is not a mission that can be won through brute force.

Build your deck, install lethal cyberware, manage your sync protocols, and make hard choices with every action. Your route, your tactics, and your build will together decide whether you live long enough to reach the final node.

Every run generates a brand-new intrusion map. Choose your route and decide between combat, elite enemies, shops, events, rest stops, and cyberware clinics.

Every node can open up new opportunities — or cut your run short.

Pick the mercenary that fits you and build your tactics around their unique abilities and signature cards.

• Viktor Kane — The BreacherTrades blows to build Rage and destroys enemies with devastating melee attacks.
• Maya Novak — The Daemon HandlerPlants viruses in enemies, letting corrosion and system collapse spread over multiple turns.
• Adrian Cross — The Fire ControlManages ammunition and precision shots, landing consecutive critical hits at the decisive moment.
• Céline Voss — The InfiltratorUses stealth, phantoms, and rapid strikes to execute enemies before they can react.

As the run progresses, mercenaries earn experience and unlock more exclusive programs, giving each character a sharper growth path.

Earn new cards from combat rewards and events, upgrade existing programs, and gradually forge a deck of your own.

Use attacks, block, buffs, viruses, corrosion, vulnerability, and a range of special effects to find synergies between cards.

Do you chase burst damage, or grind enemies down through defense and sustained damage? Every battle forces you to reassess your hand, your energy, and the enemy's intent.

Build up Sync in combat to activate powerful combat protocols. Combine your deck with your mercenary's abilities, enter an Overclocked state at the right moment, and unleash burst power that can turn the tide.

Overclocking is not free power. Judge when to go all-in and when to hold your resources, so the system doesn't turn on you against the threats ahead.

Acquire a variety of cyberware from black markets, clinics, and boss fights to add lasting effects to your combat system.

Boost card draw, Sync, block, attack, status effects, or resource cycles. Combine cyberware across different body slots to build a combat style that matches your deck.

Every install makes your hunter stronger — and may also make you more reliant on a particular strategy.

From rogue machines and corporate defense systems to eerie digital phantoms, you will fight your way through five escalating zones:

• Neon Slums
• Mech Foundry
• Corporate Labs
• Cyberspace
• AI Core

Each chapter features a unique mix of enemies, elite encounters, and a final boss. Bosses shift phases based on their health, changing attack patterns, summoning reinforcements, empowering themselves, and even unleashing a lethal termination protocol.

Read the enemy's intent, crack their attack rhythm, and destroy them before the system wipes you out.

Failure does not mean it's over. Complete battles, defeat bosses, and collect cards and cyberware to unlock new content and progression options that let the next run go further.

Every run leaves behind data.

Every choice changes the outcome.

Jack in. Take the contract. Be the last program still running.
