About the Game

You play as a software engineer who just came back from his job and got a message from his friend that a hacking group called "The Black Vault" is recruiting new members. Throughout the night you'll be given different tasks you'll have to complete in order to get into the group. As the night continues, you gather the attention of some shady people that will try to stop you from getting into The Black Vault. You must crack into servers and devices in order to obtain valuable information while avoiding getting murdered by a bunch of Deep Web killers.

COLLECT

Collect information either by analyzing Deep Web websites or cracking into other computers and webservers in order to get into "The Black Vault".

MANAGE

Throughout the night you'll have to manage your security system, your internet satellite, your lights and more in order to survive and get to your goal.

GUARD

Guard your house to keep shady people away. Luckily you're equipped with a CCTV system that has built-in lights that can be used to remotely scare bad actors away.

HIDE

Some threats won't get scared easily and will try to hunt you anyway. You must hide from them in order to avoid getting murdered.
