The night loop.

Section 01 / 04
  1. 01 · Hunt

    Echolocate.

    See by sound. Bats catch an outline with their eyes — the rest is drawn from echo.

    )))
  2. 02 · Bite

    Infect.

    One soldier at a time. The strain does the rest while you sleep, upside-down, of course.

    ✕
  3. 03 · Flee

    Evade.

    Every bite raises an alarm. Containment is listening. Hide before dawn or be salt.

    ↯
  4. 04 · Mutate

    Evolve.

    Pin trait cards into a slot loadout. Build the strain that ends them.

    ⌬

Section 02 / 04

Two ways
to feel it.

The Strain Editor. Slip into Nyxie's field journal between nights and pin trait cards into a five-slot loadout. Airborne reach, long latency, slow burn — every choice rewrites the strain and the dawn recap.

The Night Maze. The dark is total. Send an echo. Read the walls it draws — and find the roost before dawn fills the meter.
