Description

ZIRQUITZ is a unique fusion of logic puzzles, idle strategy, and incremental growth, offering a deeply engaging yet relaxing experience. Build, optimize, and expand your circuits in a dynamic world of interconnected nodes.

Node-Based Circuit Building:

Create intricate networks of Producers, Transformers, and Converters. Each node plays a critical role in generating and processing data (bits, bytes, words...) into "Work", the game’s primary resource.

Pull-Based Logic System:

A challenging yet intuitive system where inputs actively and automatically request data from connected outputs, introducing opportunities for optimization and creative problem-solving to avoid buffer overflows and underflows.

Wide Variety of Nodes:

Experiment with 25+ node types, including logic gates (AND, OR, XOR, etc.), data processors and converters, and specialized nodes implementing your own custom logic, each with unique behaviors and mechanics.

Dynamic Upgrades:

Upgrade your nodes to unlock faster production, more efficient processing, and powerful synergies. Each upgrade path introduces new gameplay possibilities.

Idle and Active Playstyles:

Whether you enjoy actively tweaking your graphs or letting the game progress while you step away, ZIRQUITZ accommodates both styles seamlessly.

Sandbox Mode:

Experiment without limits in the sandbox mode, where you can test complex graphs and explore creative solutions without restrictions.

Achievements and Challenges:

Test your skills with achievements like building perfectly efficient circuits or using every node type in a single graph.

What Makes ZIRQUITZ Unique?

Unlike traditional puzzle or idle games, ZIRQUITZ emphasizes modular design and flexibility, giving you full control over your graphs’ layout and performance. It’s as much about experimentation and discovery as it is about optimization and growth.

What’s Included?

  • A polished sandbox gameplay experience with ongoing updates.

  • A growing roster of nodes, upgrades, and features.

  • Regular updates post-launch to expand content based on player feedback.

  • An engaging soundtrack designed to complement both focused problem-solving and relaxed play.

Whether you’re a logic enthusiast, a fan of incremental games, or someone looking for a meditative challenge, ZIRQUITZ offers endless opportunities to create, optimize, and grow.
