Fun little hacking game.

It has a few flaws: Firstly, notes taking up RAM, let alone a lot of RAM. I sort of get what the devs were going for here, but all it does is encourage the player to pull up a notepad on their second monitor, especially in the endgame when you need to juggle passwords and IP addresses for upwards of a dozen machines. Secondly, the node map. It's a cool concept but its insanely cluttered and unusable, to the point where the DLC gives you a way to sort it, so the devs know its a problem. but you just have to deal with it until you beat the dlc (intended to be played late in the main story)

Beyond those flaws though, it's a very good little hacking game. The terminal setup is cool, the story is surprisingly compelling, and it's got a neat series of puzzles that are very intuitive, even for me as someone without a background in cyber security. Recommended, just, take your own notes.

I've had this game sitting in my library for a few years, completely untouched. A few nights ago, I thought to myself, "I'll play this game for a few minutes before bed." I was hooked and couldn't put the game down until my fiancee walked into my office and told me that it was 3:00 AM. The music is fantastic, and works incredibly well with what you are doing, speaking of which, during the final mission when the Synchronizer lines up... holy crackers! The tension was on. Great game.

Story only goes as long as it needs to, and gets wrapped up really well. This is one of the only games I've ever bought the soundtrack of, and it was worth it. I'd recommend this if you think you might enjoy it, even a little.
