![]() If the ‘slow’ and ‘limited’ gameplay doesn’t bother you, then chances are you’ll love Hacknet. ![]() For an example of it, when you check your ping on your Windows computer you need to access the “Command Prompt” right? That is Unix. If you don’t know what Unix is, it’s the current family of operating systems written in the C programming language which is just a convenient programmer software. It essentially simulates hacking through the Unix terminal and file system. This game includes ‘real hacking’ which means it uses real Unix commands that are similar to what you would use for hacking. If you’re new to hacking or just want to see what it’s all about without needing much education then Hacknet is perfect for you. ![]() ![]() Gameplay takes the centre stage in Hacknet. To be honest, the story isn’t very important in this game so you really don’t need to pay attention to it. Bit also teaches you the game mechanics before telling you to join a hacker group called “Entropy”. The story of Hacknet is relatively simple, the player is contacted by a user called “Bit” through an automated message sent in the event of their death. It was first released in 2015 and an expansion was released the following year which is one you’ll need to purchase if you want to play it. While the hacker-sim genre tends to hide in the shadows a little bit, there’s always that one game that gets more mainstream attention.
