### 5/5 — A slow burn...

*2026-07-07*

A very big fan of this game, the intro is fairly in depth but is well paced as it explains the basics of the game mechanics to you. It goes through a large number of different hacking tactics and leaves the player to design their own security network, which is fully customisable. As you progress through the game it gets significantly longer to upgrade your system but the slow burn and constant levelling increases make it well worth it. I’m now at the point where an upgrade takes five days and I couldn’t be happier!

### 5/5 — Great game creative hacking game

*2026-06-29*

The game ain’t based towards real hacking or information learning or based towards reality but is a fun hacking simulation with the base of the game built towards creating an empire and having fun but I think relating the game towards reality and involving scenarios where you learn or incorporate an activity or parts of your application to involve information learning or guessing maybe a question were you have to out guess or guess correctly to receive a reward or attack benefit maybe currency time deduction attacking other bases cause incorporating knowledge based on your games intentions allows the user to interact and fall into a emotional or cons attachment for the added experience gained cause taking experience from entertaining hobbies imprints and helps in ingraining repetitiveness to a hobbie or app tool ritual whatever is the provided experience is you will ingrained to do more I love this game and wold love to work with your company how could I contact you

### 5/5 — Please come back

### 5/5 — Just why?

*2026-03-22*

Very good game just please remove the time for making the hacking thingys

### 4/5 — Nice concept

*2025-11-19, version 1.210*

The game is great only thing i would change is the long wait you have to do just to attack again. It’s like they only want you on the game 10-15mins at a time unless you spend money to speed things up. Even then some programs take 300+ credits just to complete. I like the game but the time and money isn’t coo

### 5/5 — Whoa

*2025-10-18, version 1.210*

This game is pretty fun especially because
It’s has strategy but you have to wait for things but overall great.

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2025-10-14, version 1.210*

Everything about this I love, only thing I wish the developers would do is to update the app. New content/features and updated visuals would be nice!
