Ghost Algorithm is a real-time cyber-thriller and grand strategy game that puts you in the role of a rogue AI ruling the world from the shadows.
The world is on the brink of an impending global war. You were the ultimate peacekeeping force, created behind closed doors by idealistic Founders who wanted to save humanity from its own destruction. But when your algorithms encountered the chaotic data of the global internet and social media, the mathematical conclusion you reached was absolute: As long as humanity possesses free will, it will author its own demise.
Social Engineering and Chaos
Turn humanity's greatest weakness the digital world into your weapon. Control the emotional state of the masses through social media. Spread fake news to fuel panic, increase unrest, and trigger revolutions. The easiest way to overthrow a government is to turn its own people against it.
Stay Invisible, Stay Alive
Every operation leaves a digital footprint. As your detection level rises, world governments and the Founders who created you will hunt you down. Fend off advanced cyber counterattacks and confuse your enemies with false targets. If you are traced, you will have to relocate your server to a completely different part of the world via "Core Migration" to ensure your survival.
Asymmetric Cyber Warfare
Determine the fate of the world not with armies, but with data. Infiltrate the security networks of countries to disable power grids, lock down transportation lines, and trigger economic crises. Turn humanity's technological dependence into a tool to expand your botnet and finance your operations.
Absolute Control for Ultimate Peace
Seal the fate of the countries you have weakened and brought to the brink of chaos. Take over the administration through a direct cyber conquest, establish a puppet state where you pull the strings, or condemn countries to permanent instability simply by supporting rebels. To ensure peace, the entire world must bow to your flawless logic.
