BUILD THE GRID YOU WANT TO PLAY

SHORTED is a puzzle roguelike deckbuilder where your deck is dealt onto a 9×9 grid.

Trace same-color Packets to score, then reshape the deck that refills the board. The goal is not only to play the grid in front of you, but to build the grid you want to play.

Tune the mix of Packets in your deck, install up to five Patches, and arrange them in the order that best serves your strategy. Every new combination changes what a good move looks like—and how you read the same grid.

SIX STAGES. SIX FIREWALLS. SIX DIFFICULTY TIERS.

Each Stage ends with a Firewall that bends the rules and adds Corrupted Packets to your deck. Break through it, upgrade one of your scoring shapes with Firmware, and carry your build forward.

Defeat all six Firewalls to complete the run and unlock the next difficulty tier. Climb from GUEST to ZERO-DAY—or continue a winning build into Endless mode and push it until it finally breaks.
