A downloadable game

HOST

Your body is temporary. Your survival depends on what you become next.

You are a consciousness with no body of your own.

Fight enemies, weaken them, and take control of their bodies before your current host expires. Every host has different abilities, movement, attacks, and limitations forcing you to constantly adapt and decide what you become next.

⚔️ FIGHT

Take on waves of enemies using the abilities of your current host.

🩸 WEAKEN

Damage enemies that can become your next host until they enter a vulnerable state.

👁️ POSSESS

Click on a vulnerable enemy to transfer your consciousness into their body.

💀 SURVIVE

Every host is temporary. When your current body dies, you become a vulnerable consciousness with only a short window to find another host.

🧟 BECOME

Different bodies mean different playstyles. A fast attacker, a powerful brute, or another host with its own strengths and weaknesses — your next body is somewhere in the battlefield.

🎮 Controls
