  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story revolves around the journey of a humble hacker undertaking various missions, which, while engaging, suffers from repetitiveness and a lack of variety in mission types and environments. Players appreciate the challenge and the immersive experience of navigating through a digital system, but many feel that the narrative could benefit from further development and that the mission structure is overly grindy. Overall, the story provides a solid foundation but requires enhancements to maintain player interest over time.

    • “You begin as a humble hacker, going on missions, and the features only expand after that.”
    • “Good story, and great management when you get to that point.”
    • “I warn you it is a bit repetitive to get the experience up and the story needs work.”
    • “Again, there is a lot of repetition in the missions, which I personally feel is appropriate, as I imagine that's how being a hacker is.”
    • “I had to post on the forums just to figure out how to sometimes win the easiest of missions, and even then it relies a lot on luck.”
  • gameplay
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is described as immersive and engaging, featuring easy-to-learn mechanics with enough depth to keep players hooked, despite a limited variety of missions and environments. While the learning curve can be steep and some may find the gameplay repetitive due to grinding for skills, the overall experience is rewarding, especially when completing challenging contracts. Players are encouraged to utilize tutorials to better understand the mechanics and enhance their enjoyment.

    • “An amazing and in-depth hacking game, with easy mechanics, but enough depth to be complex.”
    • “The gameplay just has a great 'flow' to it and managed to be great fun even during my learning curve when all I knew was to run around and interact with random nodes, and even after I figured out what I was supposed to be doing it managed to keep that 'fun factor'.”
    • “There may not be too much strategy involved once you figure out the mechanics, but you'll find you have to constantly upgrade your programs, gear, and even train your skills if you want to continue to be successful.”
    • “The gameplay might be a bit repetitive for some due to the need to grind your skills and level them up to take on progressively tougher systems.”
    • “You have a bit of work to start understanding how the gameplay goes, and it can be frustrating and confusing.”
    • “The gameplay is not very intuitive, so not doing what I did - ran headfirst into it - and reading the tutorials is very much recommended.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the game to be quite grindy, particularly in the early stages where character building and earning money can be challenging. The limited variety in contracts and the need for upgrades contribute to this grind, although ongoing developer support and community engagement are noted as positive aspects that may improve the experience over time.

    • “The game is a bit grindy, especially at the beginning if you don't build your character right. If you build your character yourself, you need to have programs, hardware, or skills as your top pick, and you're probably fine having money be near the bottom.”
    • “Also, the randomized quest system should be overhauled to give more money; it seems too grindy.”
    • “The game is a bit grindy considering the cost for upgrades and your earnings at the start, but the better you get at the game, the faster you'll earn money.”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are generally described as functional and immersive, effectively supporting the gameplay experience, though they may not stand out as exceptional. While some players appreciate the visual and auditory elements, others note a lack of detail that could enhance the overall experience. Overall, the graphics contribute positively to the game's atmosphere, despite some minor criticisms.

    • “I bought the game earlier today and I'm hooked! I love the graphics and the gameplay so far. The graphics are engaging and really enhance the overall experience.”
    • “Graphics and sound are very nice on both. The visuals really contribute to the atmosphere of the game.”
    • “The graphics are nothing special but do the job of immersing you in the role of the virtual hacker.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is currently experiencing some bugs typical of early access titles, but the developer is proactive and responsive to user-reported issues, indicating a commitment to improving stability over time. Overall, while stability is a concern, the game's potential makes it worth monitoring.

    • “Before I sing this game's praises, note that the game is still a bit buggy, but the developer is very active and responds quickly when issues are posted in the bug reporting discussion.”
    • “Still pretty buggy because of early access, but definitely worth keeping an eye on.”
