Collapse State

Collapse State is a deterministic, turn-based tactical puzzle game focused on pure decision-making.

There are no hidden systems.

Every enemy action is revealed before you move.

Your only uncertainty is your own choice.

Core Experience

• 8×8 chess-like board

• Full enemy intent preview each turn

• Player always moves first

• No RNG, no crits, no misses

• Every failure is explainable

Each turn is a closed spatial problem:
read the board → decide → resolve → survive.

What the Game Is

• A deterministic tactical survival puzzle

• Full-information gameplay

• Cold, deliberate pacing

• Designed for players who enjoy chess-level planning

What the Game Refuses to Be

• No power fantasy

• No loot grind or progression trees

• No narrative dependency

• No reaction-based gameplay

If you lose, it is because you misread space, timing, or priority.

Units & Threats

• Minimalist unit archetypes inspired by chess logic

• Enemies telegraph their attacks clearly

• Escalation increases board pressure, not numbers

• The board collapses as space runs out

Survival is temporary.
The question is how long you can hold.

Game Modes

• Normal – Learn the system

• Hard – Tighter margins, faster escalation

• Brutal – Minimal forgiveness, inevitable collapse

Difficulty changes escalation curves, not rules.

Premium Philosophy

• One-time purchase

• No ads

• No IAP

• No grind

Small in scope.
Sharp in execution.
