## What is Honeypot?

An alert comes in. A network is under attack, and you are the security team.

Honeypot is a defence game where you protect an infrastructure against waves of malware. Worms, trojans, botnets, ransomware: every threat behaves differently and demands a different answer.

ONE BREACH, ONE RUN
No endless campaign. A breach lasts about ten minutes, from the first suspicious packet to the last. The network route is generated every run, so no position learned by heart ever serves you twice.

PERMANENT ALERT
An endless mode with no finish line. Waves keep arriving, tougher each time, until your core gives out. The only question is how far you last, and the Game Center leaderboard keeps the answer.

ONE REINFORCEMENT TO PICK
Every three waves you are offered three cards and keep one. A new defence, a heuristic analysis, an emergency budget. That choice decides your run, not your memory of the level.

SIX DEFENCES, SIX ROLES
- Firewall: reliable, cheap, one target at a time
- IDS probe: splash damage, wide reach
- Honeypot: a lure that pulls the big threats in and corrodes them
- Rate limiter: throttles the flow, slows a whole stream
- Sandbox: quarantines a target
- Blacklist: long range precision, costly and devastating

PLACEMENT MATTERS
Defences help each other. A honeypot holds whatever walks past it, so its neighbours hit harder. An IDS probe feeds targeting to its own, which cut deeper through armour. Lining up turrets is not enough: they have to be composed.

BETWEEN BREACHES
Every run pays in fragments, cleared or not, and the further you go the more it pays. They buy permanent upgrades: a tougher core, a wider starting budget, better salvage.

Playable offline. No account. Your progress stays on your device.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-09-02

Game Center leaderboards and achievements are now live. Your scores reach the leaderboard, and achievements unlock as you play.

New home screen.

An upgraded tower now shows it on the board: it grows at every tier instead of looking exactly like the others.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-30

The game now follows your device language: English, French, Spanish, German and Portuguese.

Endless mode, defence synergies, a preview of the coming wave, and optional automatic waves.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-08-29

ALERTE PERMANENTE
Un nouveau mode sans fin. Aucune ligne d'arrivée : les vagues s'enchaînent et durcissent jusqu'à la rupture. Ton record part au classement Game Center.

L'EMPLACEMENT COMPTE
Les défenses s'entraident désormais. Un honeypot voisin ajoute 25 % de dégâts, une sonde IDS ajoute de la perforation. Le panneau d'inspection indique ce que chaque tour doit à ses voisines.

PLUS LISIBLE
• La vague à venir est annoncée pendant la construction
• Option de vagues automatiques, dans les réglages
• Les défenses affichent leur illustration dans la barre de construction
• Les dégâts cumulés d'une tour sont enfin comptés

Aller loin rapporte plus : le gain de fin de vague suit désormais la profondeur atteinte.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-28

Cette première mise à jour donne un visage au réseau.

• Toutes les tours et toutes les menaces ont désormais leur propre illustration. Pare-feu, honeypot, rate limiter et blacklist se distinguent d'un coup d'œil, tout comme les botnets, rançongiciels, vers et chevaux de Troie qui remontent le tracé.
• Nouveau fond de menu et nouvelle texture de plateau : la grille et le chemin se lisent plus nettement en pleine intrusion.
• Mise à jour des composants internes et correctifs de stabilité.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-27

No release notes.
