As someone who has a lot todo with pentesting, this is so close to reality that even some names of the tools I know are named the same in there. I really like this game and would like to see more of that. If someone is interested, there are pretty much online resources and even setups that are hackable to get the right education available.

big thumps up for me :) would love to see the next version of it :)

Als IT'ler kann ich sagen, dass diese Simulation reale Sachverhalte gut vermittelt – also anschaulich darstellt. Es ist ein Spiel, ja, jedoch ist der gesamte Workflow, die Umsetzung der Terminal Befehle etc. für ein Spiel doch gut gelungen. Bitte legt meine Worte nicht auf die Goldwaage, natürlich ist es im realen Leben nicht immer so einfach wie im Spiel. Wer es realistischer haben möchte, der kann sich an hackthebox.eu versuchen, sogar gratis! Da ist es dann jedoch nicht so klickibunti und easy. :)

Wer sich in Anbetracht der Tatsache, dass es eine kostenlose Demo zu diesem Spiel gibt darüber beschwert, dass dieses nur in englischer Sprache vorhanden ist, der solle zwei Dinge bedenken. A) Der Produktbeschreibung ist ausdrücklich zu entnehmen, dass dieses Spiel die deutsche Sprache nicht unterstützt. B) Wer Hacker spielen möchte, jedoch keine grundlegenden Englischkenntnisse besitzt, sollte seine Präferenzen dann vielleicht doch überdenken.

Kritik: Es wäre schön, wenn sämtliche Befehle aus einem Terminal ausgeführt werden könnten. Ich denke jedoch, da das komplette Spieldesign derart modular aufgebaut wurde, wird es diese Möglichkeit auch nicht durch ein Update geben.

Fazit: Meiner Meinung nach ein interessantes Spiel für Technik-Enthusiasten, Autodidakten, Rätselfreunde und Spieler, welche schlicht auf dieses Setting und Feeling stehen.

Diese Bewertung wurde von einem Spieler ohne Hacking/Programmier-Vorkenntnisse geschrieben und nach fast 50 Spielstunden aktualisiert.

In NITE Team 4 übernimmt man die Rolle eines Agenten, der Missionen für (und gegen) diverse Geheimdienste erledigt. Dabei geht es nicht nur ums Hacken, sondern auch um die sorgfältige Analyse von Material und das selbstständige Knüpfen von Zusammenhängen. Gelegentlich wird man auch zu Entscheidungen gezwungen, die bestimmte Konsequenzen haben (gebe ich den Befehl, eine bewaffnete Drohne in ein Wohngebiet mitten in Berlin feuern zu lassen?). Das Spiel bietet verschiedene Modi, zwischen denen man nach Belieben hin und her wechseln kann:

Akademie
Hier findet man die wirklich gut gemachten Tutorials. Als absoluter Anfänger empfand ich die Lernkurve als angenehm fordernd, allerdings musste ich wirklich aufmerksam lesen/zuhören und ab und an eine Denkpause einlegen. Die Lernbereiche sind in einzelne Abschnitte (Zertifikate) unterteilt, die nach und nach freigeschaltet werden. Die Aufgaben werden zunehmend komplexer. Alle Zertifikate sind freiwillig. Ich habe hier etwa 5 Stunden verbracht.

Kampagne
Wie auch die Akademie ist die Kampagne vollständig vertont. Im Moment gibt es vier große Operationen (plus 1 DLC-Operation), die jeweils aus mehreren Einzelmissionen bestehen. Man benötigt bereits für die erste Operation so ziemlich alles, was man in den Tutorials gelernt hat. Anfangs wird man noch ein wenig an die Hand genommen, muss aber zügig weitestgehend selbstständig arbeiten.

Ich bin nach rund 50 Stunden noch nicht mit der Kampagne durch, habe schon den ein oder anderen frustrierenden Moment hinter mir und längere Zeit an manchen Problemen gesessen. Das ist aber nicht ein Fehler des Spiels, sondern vielmehr ein entscheidendes Feature – man muss ständig aufmerksam bleiben, auf alle Details achten, Zusammenhänge herstellen, darf kein noch so unwichtig erscheinendes Material außer Acht lassen. So hing ich mehrere Stunden fest, weil ich immer wieder ein Detail auf einer ID-Card übersehen habe.

Ich bin vielleicht eher langsam, habe bisher aber sehr viel Spaß in der Kampagne, auch die grafische Gestaltung kann sich wirklich sehen lassen. Wenn man gar nicht weiter kommt, die Steam-Foren und der Discord-Server bieten Hilfe. Ich habe bisher komplett auf Hilfe verzichtet, um mir das Erfolgserlebnis nicht zu verderben.

Open World
Seit Oktober 2018 gibt es jeden Monat eine Operation, bestehend aus mehreren Einzelmissionen, die Bezug zur realen Welt hat, also z.B. eigenständige Recherchen erfordert, sich auf ein tatsächliches stattfindendes Event bezieht (G20!) oder auf reale Dokumente verweist. Ich habe noch keine Open-World Operation gespielt, freue mich aber schon darauf.
Wer mit der Hauptkampagne durch ist, findet hier regelmäßig Nachschub.

Bounty-Interface
Zwischendurch können so genannte Bounty-Missionen angneommen werden. Diese Missionen erscheinen in bestimmten Zeitfenstern (z.B. alle 30 Minuten, stündlich, täglich etc.) und müssen erledigt werden, bevor sie 'auslaufen' (das nicht-erledigen hat aber keine Konsequenzen). Im Gegenzug erhält man Ruf für den entsprechenden Geheimdienst (etwa CIA), kann aber auch Ruf verlieren, wenn die Mission ein anderen Geheimdienst als Gegenspieler hat. Die verfügbaren Bounty-Missionen hängen wohl vom bereits vorhandenen Ruf ab.

Als ich angefangen habe, NITE Team 4 zu spielen, lag bei den Bounty-Missionen mein einziger (kleiner) Kritikpunkt. Es tauchen immer wieder die selben Missionen mit immer gleichen Zielen auf. So soll man beispielsweise immer wieder die maximal erlaubte Passwortlänge für die Mitarbeiter von sepract.com herausfinden. Die Lösung für diese Mission ist immer dieselbe... man kann sich also einfach die Lösungen notieren und bei Bedarf wieder eingeben. An dem Prinzip hat sich nichts verändert, aber:
Zum Launch gab es nur wenige Bounty-Missionen, die allesamt ziemlich einfach und zügig erledigt waren. Inzwischen sind weitere Missionen hinzugekommen, die es teilweise echt in sich haben. Es geht nicht mehr darum, eine angreifbare sub-domain zu finden. Das wäre in 5 Minuten erledigt. Nein, besorg uns doch bitte den Namen von dem Typen, der unsere Drone gekapert hat... leider haben wir nicht viel mehr als irgendeine IP-Adresse für dich. Viel Spaß!
Es gibt inzwischen wesentlich mehr Bounty-Missionen und höhere Schwierigkeitsgrade.

Hivemind
Operationen/Missionen, die von Spielern erstellt wurden. Zum Erstellen dieser benötigt man die teure DLC, die ich noch nicht erworben habe. Auch im Hivemind selbst war ich noch nicht, da dieser ausdrücklich für fortgeschrittene Spieler ausgeschrieben ist. Da im Hivemind vorhandene Missionen mit den gleichen Tools erstellt wurden wie die, die für die Kampagne/Open World verwendet werden, kann man hier wohl eine gute Qualität und immer wieder neue Inhalte erwarten.

Für NITE Team 4 braucht man keine Vorkenntnisse, aber den Willen sich intensiv mit dem Spiel zu beschäftigten, immer wieder neue Dinge hinzuzulernen und eine gewisse Frustrationstoleranz. Das Hacken steht natürlich im Mittelpunkt des Spiels, aber man verbringt auch viel Zeit mit der (abwechslungsreichen) Analyse von Daten, Dokumenten, Fotos, mit der Suche nach Zusammenhängen... eben mit investigativer Arbeit, die wenig Action bringt, aber umso befriedigender ist, wenn man nach zwei Stunden endlich das fehlende Puzzlestück gefunden hat.

Wer sich vorstellen kann, sich mit Verschlüsselungstechniken zu beschäftigen, Karten Afrikas und des mittleren Ostens zu studieren oder einen Fingerabdruck mit Hilfe eines selbst gezeichneten Diagramms zu rekonstruieren... hier seid ihr richtig. Ich habe in der Kampagne einiges fürs reale Leben gelernt, und das obwohl die Realitätsbezug für diese Missionen mit gering angegeben wird. Kann die Open-World Operationen mit viel Bezug zur Realität kaum erwarten.

NITE Team 4 im oberen Preissegment bei Indie-Titeln, ich würde das Geld (und mehr!) aber jederzeit wieder ausgeben und werde mir jede zusätzlich erscheinende Operation kaufen.

Very good. Great interface and voice acting. Engaging story, and realistic systems. Lots of techno puzzle fun.

I see people complaining that this isn't a sandbox - but when playing it is obvious why not, the scope would be ridiculous. For example there is a satellite vision tool, when given coordinates you can view an area. If this was a sandbox they'd need imagery for the entire earth. Instead you wait till you get coordinates which are obviously to be used with this tool. Same thing goes for the other tools. Considering the how many machines you connect to it would be impractical to have every tool function realistically, and would probably lead to a lot more frustrating dead ends. The linear approach the developers have taken keeps you focused and engaged.

I hope they get back to work on The Black Watchmen, as I'd like to try that next - but many people are saying it is dead.

This was a fun, and at times frustrating, investigative game. The bulk is piecing together information, chasing down bits with meta data, and teasing out how to get at some objective.

Word to the wise, don't put the game down for an extended period of time and lose your notes on.. it makes for a rough reentry.

Game is fun, but very uncomfortable in many ways. I understand that game doesnt tell you what to do exactly, since it is hacking game, but it doesnt even teach you the basic methods of hacking in some places. You will get stuck while doing the very first mission. Also, it lacks freedom. i expect something similar to uplink, but not even close. each missions have strict way of playing, and hacking methods are lacking. Overall, could been great, but it is not.

It's decent, I'd recommend Uplink or Hacknet over this though. Many missions feel like you are just trying every tool to find the developer intended way rather than alternative solutions that should have some probability of succeeding with the information that you have gathered, particularly spearphishing where the game just says nope if it's not the intended way to complete the mission.

Also, there is no copy and paste by selecting text like most SSH/Putty styles, you have to explicitly right click and copy.

If you're looking for a spiritual successor to Hacknet, this isn't it.

I don't think this is a bad game, but I think I went into it with the wrong expectations. I was very excited as I played through the initial academy missions. I couldn't wait for the game to start opening up and let me start applying everything that I'd learnt, but sadly it did not pan out that way.

This is not a puzzle game, it's a linear adventure game. There's nothing wrong with that, but you should know that going in otherwise you'll end up being disappointed.

Every situation has basically one solution. Tools that would make perfect sense to use in certain situations yield no results because it doesn't follow the single thread of linear logic that the devs had in mind.

I would have upvoted this if I enjoyed the story, but sadly I just don't find it very believable. In the training academy your instructors treat you like you are some incredible recruit that is surpassing all previous recruits. They do this despite the fact that this is meant to be a highly elite military academy and despite the fact that all you're doing is literally following their every instruction word for word, almost no initiative is required on your part.

Once you finish the academy, it's basically just more of the same. I think this could have been an incredible puzzle game, but it feels like a missed opportunity.

I just completed the story line and it is excellent. The game uses some of the same techniques used in the real world of hacking but it doesn't get as technical as what is required of a 'real hacker'. The bounties are fun as well. I have only completed one open world mission and it was excellent as well. You are required to look up information on the internet outside of the game, and it requires some brain stress to solve the hints that are given at the start of each mission. I have not started any of the user created missions in Hivemind so I can't comment on them at this point, but I have a feeling that they will be fun. If you enjoy computers, networking, solving 'puzzles', and learning about what agencies like the NSA use to track cyber crime than you will enjoy this game. The game has been out for awhile and I wish I had found it earlier. My advice while playing is to scan every sub domain that you find, really focus on the hints that are given, and most of all just have fun and explore what you like. If you want to compare it to other hacking games it is right up there at the top. I have played Uplink and GreyHack for quite a few hours and really can't say that I like one more than the other. Nite Team 4 is definitely better looking graphically, but graphics are not thing that I am personally requiring from a game like this; you are spending the majority of your time at a terminal. Nite Team 4 developers have made it look awesome though compared to the other games I have played. To summarize you will need to learn much more to jump into the world of cyber security, but this slimmed down version of the techniques used in the real world will give you the feel of what seeking out cyber crime is really like. I have never reviewed a game before, but thought that this would be a great one to let people that are into cyber security to give a go. Hope it helps and enjoy. For the money that the game costs and the amount of content you can't go wrong.

Having recently played Hacknet, I was looking for something that scratches that 'hacking game' itch. The genre is pretty sparce, so it didn’t take long for me to come across this one.

At first it looked promising, but I quickly realised it wasn’t the game I'm after. Unlike Uplink and Hacknet, where there is a sense of jeopardy, and occasionally even paranoia, surrounding your every action, I failed to feel it playing NITE Team. I felt completely removed from what was going on in game.

I feel a big reason for this is the UI. It feels gamey, it does not make me feel like a part of the world. The fact that you need to open a special window for each different console command makes it really unwieldy at the same time.

Then there’s the voice acting, the characters don’t (to me) sound like they are who they are meant to be. They’re meant to be military personnel but from the beginning they sound all buddy buddy and It doesn’t sound very convincing to me. I also find it annoying that I cant do anything when a character is talking to me. And really, why does the game need voice actors? I feel like it would make more sense for the mission info to arrive in an email or something instead.

I’m sure the game might appeal to some people, but for those of you after a tense hacking simulation in the vein of Uplink, you may be disappointed.

To those of you that do pick it up. Follow the tutorials. Even when the game tells you you’ve done enough to start mission one, do all the rest of them. There are a number of concepts you will encounter in the first mission that are not explained anywhere else.

I have a mixed feeling about this. I'd say if you are interested in real hacking and want to know a little basics then yes this game is for you. But if you want some fun gameplay, maybe look for something else; if you really want to learn or experience some reality in hacking, better not expect that in games.

At first it looks cool, lots of real stuff. Most technologies in this game actually work this way, but at a much more complicated level. When I went through the tutorials, I was really into this game. The way you do things, although simplified, feels just right. Like if I'm a hacker, I'd be doing these things, and that contributes a lot to the immersion.

But a few hours later, when really get to work on a few missions, I found them mostly the same. Well the story itself is decent enough to keep me going. But the thing you really do, is to repeat the tutorial steps again and again. Not really much creative thinking, just try every method, every port, every tool, every command. You have no clue which one will work, and sometimes that's pretty unrealistic. Like there is a tool to search social network for email addresses in some corporation and send them fake mails to steal information. But if that's not the correct solution, you won't get any result. You can't even send a mail, despite in previous missions you may already get to know a few addresses.

I did play most games by this dev, by far I'd say I still like The Black Watchmen the most. More interesting puzzle design, more variety, and always make you think out of the box. This one is just trial and error, rinse and repeat. Not bad, not great either. I stopped playing when I find I have to buy the DLC to continue the main story.

There's a lot of windup and tutorial to get through the first mission, at least for a non-programmer like myself. But once I got into it, there were so many subtle details that had me completely invested. Like the fact that the kid's parents are dead, and both their phone numbers are in their contacts. Or that you're potentially dronestriking someone on foreign soil. Not in the cool, Call of Duty way, but in a basically-attacking-our-own-allies way. Heavy shit, it's simply excellent.

Absolutely fantastic game from the makers of Uplink: Hacker Elite (which I absolutely loved while in college).

This game is by and large a puzzle game wrapped in a hacking skin. It uses the tools and nomenclature familiar to those who are either in the computer security field or those who take an interest in it. The missions are structured in a way that force you to sometimes think outside the box in order to resolve (which I enjoy as an autodidact).

Highly recommend this game for anyone who enjoys a good conundrum and isn't afraid to dive into the world of cybersecurity (simplified for gamification, of course)

The game starts really strong, and could be really fun if done right. Even the tutorial is more interesting than hacking minigames in most games I saw.

But by the time you get to Operation: Royal Gate the writing deteriorates.
Puzzles become less and less logical, and start to rely on bruteforcing every option.
Characters grab massive idiot balls and run with them.
Fake difficulty in terms of interface screw compounds the problem, as it persists outside of main storyline, so if you are stuck there, you are stuck with it in side missions too.
Compared to that, interface quirks are small annoyances.

Hivemind feature that lets players create challenges for each other sounds good on paper, but is incredibly limited in execution, compared to the base game.

So all in all, it's a quite disappointing end that followed a glorious beginning.

I want to start off by saying.. like a lot of others that have played this I am a huge fan of most hacking games. I'm familiar with a most of the real world terms and I like how most (Nite Team included) translate these real terms and basic networking in to a game. That being said I really like this game but I'm not really sure I can recommend it others. The Plot points, the music, etc are all pretty cool but this game suffers from a few major issues:
- Interface: it's extremely clunky, everything is functional but you have whole screens you have to pull up that only accept one or two commands. This isn't very realistic and it would have been nice to see a terminal style window that would accept a wider range of commands.
-Information: there are pieces of information that have to be remembered between missions. Took a break between missions? Too bad! Server names and other information that are required cross missions should be given to you in a notepad or something but there not. This forces you to have to Google information which seems a bit silly.
-Minor details: I'm being picky here on this one but there are a few minor details that seemed to have been overlooked. One example being, how you're still able to be connected to a server that you [spoiler] blew up with a drone [/spoiler]
-Price: finally the price, a lot of these could be overlooked if the price was right. Lucky for me I picked this game up on sale for a deep discount. However at the time of this post this is a $35 game and there just isn't $35 worth of value here.

The UI design screams Uplink but the gameplay screams Hackernet. Either way I hear screaming. This game is good.

One of the best hacker games I've played.

tl;dr at the bottom

Pros: Great tutorial, and please, do it if you don't want to get absolutely overwhelmed by the game's interface. Even though there's is a lot of intuitive buttons and commands, it may get very confusing. DO THE TUTORIAL. ALL OF IT. The game has a bunch of console commands inputs, but a lot of the most boring tasks, like password brute-force attacks, are done with buttons in a UI so it's intuitive and not boring. The story is great and very intriguing, fairly linear but it serves the narrative pretty well. The dialogue is pretty good and the voice acting is so, so well done it puts a lot of AAA games to shame.

2 cons for me: first, even though the story was great, the ending was very underwhelming for me, with a lot not being explained or clear. Maybe the DLC expands it or the lore in the other Alice & Smith's games explains it.
Talking about the the other A&S games like The Black Watchmen series, which are packed full of ARG elements, this has basically none. Well, at least the Main Mission doesn't. But, and this brings me to my second con, it's that there is a very ARG-like puzzle on the 2nd Chapter in the main mission. Not my cup of tea, but it was doable to a certain extend, but I had to google a few things out of the game and in one of the sections of the puzzle I just had to check a guide because I really couldn't figure it out. It kinda killed the pace for me for an hour, but you can just skip it with a guide if you want.

The main campaign took me around 10 hours to finish, so the full price is very fair, but during a sale its a must-have.

There's also bounties and online multiplayer (beta) but I didn't played it yet, so I can't comment on that.

tl;dr with the exception of the ending and one puzzle (really subjective), this game is incredibly good. If you like hacker games, buy this.

It's well made, the missions are nice, I haven't yet tried the co-op / multiplayer / online mode though I have high hopes with that. The only problem I have is the lack of a regular terminal, I hate having so many windows floating around and it's hard to switch between them easily

I must say that NITE Team 4 is probably the most complex and satisfying hacking game I've ever played.

At its core it's very similar to other hacking games, I think hacknet seems the most similar. The devs put a lot of effort into the game, requiring from the player to think out of the box from time to time. Bonus points for real life references to software, exploits, backdoors and all kind of terms, even though a lot of aspects were overly simplified for the game process and obviously no real tools are used in any of that.

The game has met my expectations about being a decent hacknet-like game, with enough of content to explore. I can recommend NITE to people that are into games like that, as clearly it's one of the best ones in its own category. Depending on your skills and interest, it can bring you at least a solid dozen of hours to put into.

This game complements black watchmen as they operate in the same universe/setting and most importantly retains the investigative puzzle solving from the aforementioned game while incorporating programming simulation among other things reminiscent of hacknet, uplink etc....recommended!

I thought no game would come close to Hacknet and Uplink when it comes to feeling like a hacker. NITE Team 4 proved me otherwise and took it a step further with its great polish, UI and voice acting.

It takes some time and lot's of (necessary) hand-holding to learn about all of your tools. However, once you start with the real missions, your objectives become less and less step-by-step instructions and more general, at which point it's up to you to sift through various entry points, trying to infiltrate your target.

My biggest praise and complaint goes to the sheer versatility of your tools. For example, you start most of your missions analyzing your target website's subdomains to look for entry points. It took me hours to realize (i.e. look up) that the program I'm using has several ways to find subdomains, branch off these subdomains and dig even deeper towards the target's internal server. Being able to explore all these different attack vectors is usually very fun but it can quickly become frustrating when there is only one specific way to proceed which you have never used and the game only vaguely hinted at.

Overall I'm absolutely baffled that this game only costs ~30€. Had it cost more, I would have happily paid the price.

In the privacy policy of the game it says that tracking pixels are used and that data is shared with third-party ad-providers which are to serve ads somehow. Not sure whether this is in-game or otherwise. Haven't proceeded after privacy policy statement so I cannot verify, but this is totally unacceptable for a game you pay for.

A smart, well-assembled hacking simulator that combines near-world knowledge with a Clancy-esque world of espionage and cyber operations. Great voice acting, immersive play, but most of the gameplay is in puzzle solving. The developers are very attentive to the fan-base, which I find a huge plus.

I honestly love this game. The mix between the real world, the game, and having to google things seperatly is amazing, I am a Cyber Security professonal and I use some of the things they have in the game for work like fingerprint for Kali. The UI is amazing compared to some games that just use a CLI and with the bounties and open world missions there is a ton of replay to it after beating the main story. It is by far the best hacking game I have ever played and one of the best games I own period.

Really fun game, accidentally played until 5am last night.

It's on sale, you don't need to know much about computers as it walks you through most of it (in a fun way, it's not like most game tutorials.) If you're into puzzle games, epic music and doing some cool stuff then try it out!

Once you have created an account and logged in, NITE Team 4 presents a set of missions that get you up to speed on the different tasks, tools, and features used to complete objectives. Each is divided into phases, and you must finish the goals in one phase before moving to the next one, providing a well-organized introduction to what would be an overwhelming amount of information. You begin with a basic overview of the graphical user interface and work your way through each tool and technique, culminating with a full mission. This introductory assignment does a good job of showcasing the tasks and demonstrating the pacing and flow of gameplay that you can expect to find throughout.

While all of this sounds complex, and in many ways it is, NITE Team 4 does an excellent job of easing you into the way these features work and detailing what you can do with them, your handlers providing voice-over guidance along the way. Even the text-based nature of most of these tools is easier to manage than you might expect.

There are a total of four operations divided into multiple chapters, with multiple objectives or missions within each chapter. The academy and story mode missions alone provide over 25 hours of combined content.

NITE Team 4 succeeds at creating a hacking simulator that puts the player in the cyber-warfare hotseat. The story is interesting. The complex gameplay can be a handful but the experience never feels overwhelming, rewarding players with the satisfying sense of being an elite hacker.

THE GOOD
- Good storyline
- Good variety of missions and tasks
- Very good tutorial
- Realistic hacking

THE BAD
- Some features lack clear purpose
- Won't appeal to everyone

8/10

A well polished hacking sim with a bit of a fetish for puzzles that ends up being an overall enjoyable combination of the two. The hacking mechanics are fluid and feel like you have an opportunity to solves things in an open ended manner. They can get a bit redundant, but honestly this game does it better than most (though I won't say all) that have come out in the last two decades or so.

New content was regularly added for a while, the open world challenges were terrific fun. However there's been a lot of quiet lately when it comes to new content.
The Bad:
Do be warned, this is marketed as a multiplayer game. There is almost no conceivable way you would have a better gaming experience if you played this with someone else, and at no point are you given an opportunity for that to play any part in the story or be relevant. It's a tacked on feature that means nothing and even carries a warning that you could break your game if you use it.

That said, for some other unknown reason this game requires you to be online. For what is in all honesty a single player game, that can store all resources locally, this is ridiculous. On more than one occasion servers were unavailable, so the game was not able to be played. A&S isn't a fly-by-night operation, but there's no guarantee they'll be around 5 years from now. So you'll only be leasing this game for as long as they deign to allow you to play it. If you're privacy minded, the servers the game calls back to are often associated with data-mining, all were blocked by my DNS filtering forcing me to whitelist them so I could play this game. Even when everything is working fine I'll often have long delays on starting the game where simple small size images take seconds or minutes to transfer from an online source. You'll be unable to click on GUI items while this wait is happening. Other images will remain white-tile placeholders in the middle of the game because they never loaded. This has only gotten worse in the year since release.

As of 2020 this is the best single hacking sim ever made and to make it even better users can make their own content with the Network Administrator DLC (So you can expect an endless supply of hacking content).
And to make it perfect it mixes in reality ARG style. Great stuff and a must have for every hacking enthusiast. Its def worth the full price!

Very nice hacking sim, lot of interesting info. Makes the right decisions when it comes to simplificaiton.

it could just be more thorough as of requiring proof that a person A did really commit act B. Too often some kind of data corelation is enough for taking action against an individual. It probably happens in real life as well, but it shouldn't. Agents shouldnt fall for the first and most simple explanation.

It's a very good hacking game. While the tools are real, the implementation is sort of movie-ish. That's not to say it's bad. It's as good as you'll get in a game to make people understand what's going on. If you do get this, get a second screen if you can. You'll have loads of windows open and it makes reading off multiple windows easier. If you can't, there is an in-game solution where you have a few main tabs you can cycle through.

TLDR: It's fun, semi-realistic, and get a second screen

This is an outstanding hacking and puzzle game based on real life hacking tools and real life hacking scenarios. There are many tools at your disposal to tackle each scenario. The amount of tools and commands you can use might seem a bit daunting, but there is an in-depth, well done tutorial for every single command and tool in the game. Any references to real-life hacking techniques have an associated web browser link if you'd like to get more information about them. In addition to main story missions, there are special side missions, bounties, and even user created modules to keep you busy. Some are simple, some can be quite devious.

The amount of love and attention to detail poured into this game is quite obvious and very much appreciated. This is one of those games that I wish I bought much sooner.

Overall:
I enjoyed my time for the most part but to me it does not feel like a fully fleshed out product with little replayability at the moment.
the campaign (excluding the dlc) is the only mode that feels like it has been fully developed and tested.
Worth it at 75% off (50% max if you REALLY want to play it).

UI
Command Input manipulation is very limited. You can only auto complete the last part of the command you are entering.
eg. If you want to change a scan command from bing source to google source while keeping the rest you either have to start at the end and scroll, using arrow keys, over to to the relevent part and manually replacing it by deleting and re-typing or doing the command over from scratch.

Training Missions/Tutorial
Good missions but throws new information at you each mission without giving time to process and get comfortable with information from the previous mission(s) while needing to use said from previous mission(s) to do the current one.
You can replay them but a tutorial is supposed to teach what you need first time.
They also do not provide information for things outside the campaign (eg hivemind, goliath, new software, etc)

Main Story/Missions
Enjoyed it. Ran into a couple of bugs where files weren't being put into localhost and changing filters on the sat feed (eg comm towers) that require a restart to fix. Restarting does not save progress and it only saves at the start and end of missions so you can potentially lose alot of progress.
These missions feel the most flushed out.

Open World Missions
These missions are not simple and require real life detective work (eg searching on google). Found these frustrating, for me turning a good experience to an average experience, as the answers you need to provide to complete the mission are VERY specific and if you are a letter (or space/case) out it won't work and you will have no idea how close you actually are which leads to a massive goose chase to try and find the answer.
Does not feel flushed out.

Hivemind
User generated content. to be able to create this content you need to get the network administrator (NA) dlc which costs more than the game (rounded to nearest £5 - game £30, NA dlc £45)
this mode tasks you with accessing the trade outpost. the reward for doing so is related to system that has no purpose (see below) so this mode is basically for challenge only.
very challenging. only successfully gotten in to 2 outposts. one network warns you need extra software to do it and found I got repeatably stuck without a way to progress despite exhausting software/tool options.
found these frustrating and noticed useful info not always provided.
eg aircrack for mobiles but no information on which is the right one so need to check each one.
missions do not feel flushed out but then they are user generated.

Bounties
Like the idea but VERY buggy.
all missions are on a timer which personally i do not like as I like to relax and take my time.
Answers have to be character and case perfect (including spaces) to complete them.
You can hack a node but it won't show up in the C2 registry. restart does not fix.
system will reject correct answer. restart will fix but progress will be lost so will need to redo mission.
declined bounties will show up in later refreshes. bugs included.
Involves a system that has no purpose (see below)

Systems with no purpose
bounties give agency standing and general gameplay seems to gives points for buying intel items in hivemind network. agency standing does not do anything and intel items, which at first glance, look like they give you new software do not as they just sit in your localhost doing nothing. the game does not explain these systems.

Software
being a hacking game you would expect new software as you play. it does do this but they are on specific main story missions and are shortlived.
outside the main campaign (which you get in the main campaign) you have ONE other rootkit you can use which is in the last step of each hivemind network; which is connecting to trade outpost so you can login in and access it. as mentioned above it seems most non-campaign missions require new software however the game does not explain this system.

goliath
this system is supposed to give you clusters to augment your stingerOS (speed up scanning speed or hacking speed etc)
outside the one you get in the dlc campaign (which does not increase any stats so simply there for training purposes) I have not found any others so I can not go into alot of detail about this as this system currently does not do anything.

dlc campaign
very buggy, same bugs as above but new ones with the ai chat.
eg different responses for the same input
