Flatline Studios has officially flipped the switch on Steam Early Access for their upcoming cyberpunk roguelike deckbuilder, Into The Grid. This slick fusion of digital dungeon crawling and tactical card combat drops players into a neon-soaked virtual battlefield where hackers wage war against the mega-corporations ruling humanity from the shadows.
In Into The Grid, you’ll build and upgrade a deck of devastating programs, unlock new skills and perks, and strategically dismantle the defenses of your corporate overlords. But beneath the code and chaos lies something more personal—the individual stories of the hackers themselves, and the factions they fight for. Each run uncovers fragments of their motives, rivalries, and philosophies, adding narrative depth to the digital anarchy. (Note: Story content will continue to expand throughout Early Access.)
Key Features:
-
Deckbuilder Meets Dungeon Crawler: A unique blend of card battler mechanics and strategic map exploration, offering roguelike replayability with tabletop-inspired movement and decision-making.
-
Dual-Resource Combat: Every card you play doesn’t just execute an action—it generates Virtual Memory (VIM), fueling powerful Command abilities that turn even weak hands into winning strategies.
-
Command System: Unlock and equip game-changing Commands to amplify your playstyle and dominate tougher foes.
-
Tactical Navigation: The Grid is a vast digital maze packed with riches, risks, and branching paths. Every move counts—decide whether to fight, retreat, or risk everything for a bigger reward.
-
Four Distinct Hackers: Play as four unique characters (each from different Factions) with their own abilities, art, and story arcs, shaping both gameplay and the world’s growing lore.
Into The Grid promises to deliver the thrill of high-stakes hacking with deep strategic layers and a world that evolves over time through Early Access updates. Expect expanded storylines, balance tweaks, new cards, and plenty of surprises as Flatline Studios refines the experience.
Plug in, power up, and take the fight to the corporations—Into The Grid is entering Early Access soon on Steam.
