🚀 PhantomTrace: Grid Surge

Defy your own past. Outrace the collapse. Summon your phantoms.

You awaken alone—adrift in a space station spiraling into chaos. The grid beneath your boots crumbles with every second, and the only path forward... is the one you create.
Each tile you uncover holds a choice: restore a node of power—or trigger the trap that seals your fate.

But something lingers in the void.
Shadows of your former self—Echo-Phantoms—crawl back through time, retracing your every step with deadly precision. They're not just memories… they’re hunting you.

You're not defenseless.
Deploy AI-powered Echo-Buddies, loyal spectral allies armed to the teeth. Station them as turrets. Assign them to sweep or guard. Let them hold back the tide of ghosts while you reforge the broken lattice of this dying station.

With each passing round, the grid tightens. Your past multiplies. Mistakes echo louder.
Every move is recorded. Every failure, replayed.
And through it all, the station’s shattered core pulses—silent, waiting.

Can you reignite it before your own timeline collapses inwards?
