A VIRTUAL VERSE ORIGINAL

STEP IT

Race. Block. Outsmart.

A one-on-one strategy board duel. Every turn, one choice: take a step toward the far side, or put a wall in your rival’s way.

FREE ON iOS & ANDROID · ONLINE 1V1 · OFFLINE VS AI

Nine by nine. One on one. Always a way through.

01 / THE DUEL

Every turn,
one choice.
Step or wall.

You and your rival start on opposite edges of a 9×9 board, and the first to reach the far side wins. Take a step toward it, or put a wall in their way.

Step.

Move one tile toward the far side. Every step brings you closer, and shows your rival the plan.

Wall.

Start with three walls and earn another every third turn. Force a detour now, or hold one for the moment they think the lane is clear.

Win.

A wall can slow anyone down but never shut them in. Find the way through first. A turn timer keeps every match quick.

02 / THE HEROES

Pick your hero.
Bend the rules.

Every hero brings one signature ability that charges as you play, and every ability has a counter. Choosing your hero is part of the plan.

Tempo

Dash

SprintTake two steps in one turn. Each step still obeys walls: this is pace, not passage.

Countered byAnchor. A sealed lane makes raw speed worthless.

Your first hero. Unlock the others as you play.
