Gameplay Mechanics & Loop

The infiltrator moves through the world—jumping, crawling, ducking, dodging obstacles, all while staying out of sight. But doors don’t open themselves. Elevators don’t wait forever. Security systems don’t just turn off.

That’s where the hacker comes in. Watching the infiltrator’s path from a distance, the hacker controls access points, rewires electronics, and times disruptions with precision—or, at least, they should.

Because if the infiltrator jumps too soon, or the hacker mistimes an override, things spiral fast. This isn’t just about skill. It’s about trust.
And trust has consequences.
