Mine, Defend, Upgrade
In ITER-8, players take on the role of an expendable Operator working for the mysterious ITER Corporation’s “Vertical Ventures Department.” Armed with a powerful mech-drill, players must mine deep into massive Pillars to collect vital resources, uncover hidden upgrades, and push ever closer to the summit.
But mining is only half the job.
Between expeditions, players must defend their base from waves of hostile mechanoids using turrets, firepower, and the upgrades gathered during each run. Every Operator may be expendable, but each iteration moves the mission forward.
