Steam reviews

What players say

Mostly positive: players like the realistic-feeling hacking tools and approachable introduction, but many find the prologue hard to follow and want clearer guidance and a longer story.

Many players enjoy the hacking itself: the terminal commands and tools feel close to real-world practice, and the investigation-based tasks make the fantasy of being a hacker approachable even without technical knowledge. Some praise the interface and the way the game introduces its tools step by step, and a few say it runs well on low-end computers. The most common complaint is the lack of clear instructions: many players got stuck on the first or second task, found hidden objectives and unclear exploit names frustrating, and wanted a tutorial or hints. Others note that the prologue spoon-feeds steps, offers little freedom to explore, and has a thin story and a cluttered desktop. Several mention poor voice acting and translation problems. Recent reviews are more mixed than Steam's overall totals, with a number of negative reviews from players who got stuck early, while the older helpful reviews are more favourable.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Unclear instructions

    Players got stuck on early tasks, found hidden objectives and mismatched exploit names confusing, and wanted better hints.

    Many players
  • Limited freedom and story

    Players find the prologue spoon-feeds every step, offers little to explore, and has a thin story with few real goals.

    Some players
  • Poor voices and translation

    Players dislike the AI-generated voices and find the translation and interface text weak or hard to read.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suited to people curious about hacking who are happy to follow guided tasks and read terminal commands, especially those interested in cybersecurity.
Who should skip it
Players who want open exploration, a strong story, or no-guidance challenges, and anyone who gets stuck easily without clear instructions, should skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players who stuck with it for several hours mostly describe the later tasks as harder and more rewarding, while those who quit within the first hour mainly report being stuck on the opening steps.
