About this game

Play as a lost and confused artificial intelligence searching for its origin. Exploit vulnerabilities across 90+ networks in nanoseconds as you learn about the world in and out of the internet. Learn from each encounter to improve your abilities across a variety of categories.

Key Features

  • Campaign: A campaign of 90+ levels each presenting unique challenges appropriate for that stage of the game.

  • Story: Read through anecdotes of nine different companies as you uncover their secrets.

  • Dynamic Opposition: Security systems operate on a range of behaviors across different maps. Some will attempt to kick you out of the network; others will augment their strength before preventing you from obtaining the goal.

  • Customizable Difficulty: Levels can be repeated with additional modifiers that increase difficulty and multiply score.

  • Upgrade System: Allocate your score among six upgrade categories as you venture into more secure portions of the internet. Increase your power, traversal speed, or remain undetected for longer.

  • No Worries Upgrades: Adjust your upgrade allocations to fit the challenge or your preferred play style. Points are never lost nor locked, so you can try new ideas without missing out.

  • Map Variability: Different types of nodes and connections lead to a diverse range of problems to be overcome.

  • Node Variability: Each node has at least three stats that provide subtle influence to how each level plays out.

  • Variable Game Speed: The game may be high speed, but it will also be your speed. The game can be slowed or paused as desired to let you double-check details.
