A sentient corporate megastructure placed divinity behind a permission gate. BLACK STACK asks you to compile a version of yourself capable of revoking it.
Build across 496 playable protocols, including 60 Wager cards, and dozens of viable metas. Install persistent hardware, carry one-shot scripts, master cards through upgrade paths, commit to graft doctrines, and breach two six-act campaigns as Vanta, the Archon Kernel, or the Courier.
Trace binds the run together: powerful protocols raise the signal, escalating the Stack's response while charging your identity Overclock. Vent it, weaponise it, or keep operating at the edge.
Blackglass Assembly's balance rule is simple: earned power is part of the fantasy. Intelligent difficulty and System Response pressure strong builds without pretending you did something wrong by discovering them; archived selves can return with the deck, equipment, mastery, and habits you actually filed.
