A tense and strategic hacking sim where you carefully plan each digital intrusion while feeling the constant pressure of consequences.

What players say

Players praise the arcade-style hacking that focuses on timing and resource management rather than real commands. Many note the five-minute timers and controller support. Reviews split on the endgame, with some calling the final boss frustrating due to stun mechanics and no skill-based progression.
