The sequel to the OG mobile hacking game, Hack Ex, is here. Hack Ex 2 is a real-time multiplayer hacker simulator with crews, PvP raids, and daily missions. Thousands of players compete in real-time to hack each other's in-game devices. Scan for victims, crack their defenses, drain crypto wallets, and upload viruses to slow your opponents — but stay sharp, because someone's trying to do the same to you. SCAN & EXPLOIT Find targets, assess their defenses, and launch your attack. BUILD YOUR ARSENAL Upgrade your bypass, cracker, spam, rootkit, siphon virus, and more. Use keygens to unlock software on the cheap. Every upgrade makes you faster and deadlier. UPGRADE YOUR RIG From a basic Raider to the Nova Ultra — your device and network speed determine how fast your hacks land. Faster rig = more targets per hour. STEAL & STASH Drain crypto (in-game) from wallets. Be sure to store it in Cold Storage before someone hacks you back. DEFEND OR GET WRECKED Firewalls, antivirus, encryption — layer your defenses or wake up to an empty wallet and a trashed reputation. CREW UP Join a crew for encrypted chat, coordinated PvP raids, and crew-wide rootkit debuffs on rival hackers. CLIMB THE RANKS Daily missions, login streaks, and PvP leaderboards. Every hack, every upgrade, every defense matters. CUSTOMIZE YOUR DEVICE Unlock wallpapers as you upgrade. Collect themed packs like NetRunner, Sentinel, and the Legacy Collection. The OG mobile hacking sim returns — now bigger, deeper, and more competitive. The OG mobile hacking sim returns — now bigger, deeper, and more competitive.

Phones, watches, earbuds and beacons around you broadcast Bluetooth Low Energy signals. Wardrive Go logs them and plots each one on a live radar -- the closer a device, the closer it sits to the center. THE HUNT - A live radar sweep that maps every BLE device around you in real time - Color-coded contacts: Apple gear, named devices, and unknowns - Tap any blip for a full readout: signal strength, proximity, TX power, raw service UUIDs, how many times you've seen it, and more - Sort by signal, recency, frequency, or name; filter ALL / WI-FI / BLE - A live trip banner: new networks, in range, pace, distance, open networks, speed ADD WI-FI WITH WARDRIVEESP BOARDS OR A BISCUIT - Link an inexpensive ESP32 board running the free WardriveESP firmware (rocketgod.dev/WardriveESP) and Wardrive Go connects to it automatically, no pairing - Biscuit wardrivers (Ultra and Crumb) link by themselves too: their Wi-Fi and Bluetooth finds join your run - Run several boards at once: they split the Wi-Fi channels between them, and boards with 5 GHz cover 5 GHz - Turn one board into a Bluetooth scanner: it sees the real device addresses iOS keeps from apps, so those devices count when you upload - Update a board's firmware over Bluetooth with one tap - Wi-Fi access points stream into the same list as Bluetooth, with band, channel and security - Every run is logged as one WiGLE-compatible file with real GPS coordinates - A built-in console shows what your boards are doing UPLOAD AND CLIMB THE BOARDS - Add your WiGLE, WDGWars and/or Wardrift API key -- one tap uploads your run to every service you set up, and nothing is sent until you tap - WiGLE and WDGWars leaderboards and your upload history, right in the app - Game Center leaderboards for Lifetime Contacts and your Best Single Run, with achievements from your First Contact all the way to ten million KNOW WHAT'S AROUND YOU - Trackers (AirTag / Find My, Tile, SmartTag, Chipolo), cameras, body cams, drones, smart glasses, hidden-camera setup networks and other notable devices are named on sight, called out with a banner, and collected in their own list THE FIELD REPORT - A breakdown of everything you've ever logged - Drill into any category by maker, then tap any device for its complete detail - Export your current run to CSV, free 17 THEMES, ALL FREE Teal, Amber, Sonar Blue, Crimson, Toxic, Plasma, WiGLE, WDGWars, The Pirates' Plunder, WiGhoul, BBS, Pro, Pwnagotchi, DOOM, Pac-Man, Slate and Clarity. WARDRIVE GO PRO Everything above is free. A single unlock (no subscription) adds one thing: - Export your full history to CSV -- every device you've ever logged, with maker, type, best signal, services, and first and last seen PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything Wardrive Go hears is read and stored on your own device. Your numeric leaderboard score goes to Game Center; nothing else leaves your phone unless you add an API key and tap UPLOAD -- then only the run you chose goes to the services you picked. The phone's own radar sees only the randomized Bluetooth IDs iOS provides, so nothing there points to a person. Wardrive Go only reads the public advertisements devices already broadcast; the only things it ever connects to are your own WardriveESP boards and Biscuits. Note: "contacts" are signals logged, not unique devices -- phones rotate their Bluetooth ID for privacy, so the same one is often counted more than once. Requires Bluetooth. Location is used to tag your log with coordinates.
