About

Vicious Circle is an uncooperative multiplayer shooter set in a colorful yet gritty sci fi universe inspired by retro comics. Gameplay is fast and frenetic with an emphasis on thwarting other players with dirty tricks at every turn. Be one of four mercenaries and compete for loot, or take the role of a terrifying monster and try to kill everything in your path. The first player to collect the biggest haul and reach the evac zone wins - unless the player controlling the big baddy gets them all first.
