The perfect heist starts before anyone moves. Mask Protocol is a turn-based stealth strategy game where Vera's anime crew plans together, moves together and escapes together. Read guard vision, set a distraction and watch your plan unfold.

Plan before you commit

Move three thieves across a readable tactical board. Preview patrol directions and vision tiles, assign gadgets and undo anything you have not executed yet. Execute when your crew is ready: the whole crew moves first, then the guards move and look.

Change the approach

Six crew roles support hacking, fast movement, lockpicking and misdirection. Coins, smoke, EMP, cloaks, sleep darts and decoys come in three potency tiers that open new routes through danger.

Escape with more than the gem

Complete 18 campaign heists across three venues. Grab optional gems, handle five guard behaviors and take contracts with rising pressure. High alarm opens an emergency exit but calls reinforcements. Daily and endless operations test a fresh plan.

  • English, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. Plays offline, saves and resumes heists. No account.

Controls (PC)

  • Mouse: click a thief, then a tile to plan a move. Gadget button, then click a target. Undo and Execute buttons.
  • Keyboard: WASD / arrow keys plan a move (or aim the gadget), X, Tab or 1-3 pick a thief, C switches move/gadget, Q cycles gadgets, Backspace undoes, Enter or Space executes. After a heist: R swaps the role, Enter starts the next one.
  • Menus work with the keyboard too (Tab / arrows, Enter). Esc: pause / back.
