About the Game

This program simulates a hostile network environment, presented as a tower-defense game controlled by typing. Your task is simple: stop the attackers from stealing data out of the system. Build defenses, issue commands, and keep the network stable at all costs.

Main features

  • Typing as gameplay
    Deploy, upgrade and configure your defense processors all with typed commands.

  • Active defense
    Building a robust network won't be enough against the more clever attacks - you'll need to stay on your toes and use special commands to trigger instant routines that nuke enemies, create firewalls, and more...

  • Distinct processor types
    The module offers you a variety of tools: versatile processors, specialised units and numerous upgrades to boost your network and defend against the attackers!

  • Hacker-inspired presentation
    Glitchy UI, terminal-like feedback, and an artificial assistant guiding you through the simulation create a cohesive cyber atmosphere.

This is not a passive defense system: the network will not protect itself.

So, user - are you up to the challenge?
