Burned is a quick, aggressive, game of cat-and-mouse for two players. It pits The Agency, led by The Director, against a Burned Asset. The Agency must locate the Burned Asset with its team of Agents. The Asset must use its array of equipment to discover and eliminate The Director. First to die loses. Do you have what it takes to survive in the Neon City, or will you get…Burned. Choose between playing as The Agency or the lone Burned Asset. As the Agency you will build your team of Agents to hunt the Asset across the city. Guess where the Burned Asset will move next and intercept them all while protecting the identity of your Director. As the Burned Asset, you'll have to assemble a kit of weapons and tools to stay hidden while hunting for the Agency Director. -description from the publisher
