One core. Eight strains. A world worth saving.

Eight themed sectors surround the Central Hub, each ending in an infected guardian. Free one and its weapon joins your Strain Driver, opening gates and routes elsewhere in the world; combine weapon modules for new shots and charged abilities. Save at stations to restore health and ammunition. A defeat returns you to the last one with every weapon and upgrade kept. The full campaign runs from the opening to the ending, in the browser or as a free Windows download.

On your first run

A gate you cannot open yet usually wants a guardian weapon you have not taken. Hold fire to charge a stronger shot. Use every station you pass; it is where you return after a defeat.
