Played this a lot on iOS before getting it on Steam. An intriguing roguelike puzzle game. Get out with the most points, and collect 'progs' along the way to gain powers that make your deletion less likely. Worth your time and money!. I FINALLY BEAT THE ADDICTIVE GAME :D. 868-HACK is an interesting beast... one of those rare games that really gets it right when it comes to both creativity and depth. But what's also interesting is that it's easy to grasp the basic principles.... despite that the game's difficulty is then quite high. However, some of that difficulty will be entirely your own fault...

At it's core, this is a turn-based Roguelike where your goal is simple: make it through 8 sectors (each a single screen in size) by reaching the glowing green box at the end. And more importantly, do so while getting your score as high as possible. There's no point in hacking anything if there's no gain after all, right?

In your way are exactly four types of enemies, and knowing exactly how each one works, and how to deal with each, is of utmost importance. Demons, the red ones, are very basic in how they move, just coming straight at you, however, they take 3 hits to kill instead of 2. Viruses, the purple ones, move 2 times for every 1 time that you move. The blue orb things are invisible unless you are in a direct horizontal\/vertical line with them; however, the spot they initially spawn on will have a blue box thing around it until they've been destroyed, so you're never surprised by them, the game ALWAYS lets you know they are there somewhere, and the spot where they started. And finally, the pink angular whatsits can go right through walls; fortunately, you can strike them while they are in a wall so long as there is not another wall between you and them.

Your attack is a bit different than in many turn-based roguelikes. Instead of adjacent attacks, you strike in a horizontal or vertical line with infinite range. You do this by simply attempting to move towards any enemy you are in a direct line with (this, however, also means you CANNOT just walk towards them; you will always fire instead). Every enemy that isnt a Demon takes 2 hits to destroy, and the first hit stuns them for a moment. This mechanic is very basic on paper, but in practice, you really need to time your movements and your attacks carefully.

But the real thing that makes the game interesting is the hacking, and the programs. In each sector you can acquire 2 "Data Siphons". Using these basically sucks stuff out of the tile you're on, and the 4 adjacent to you, be they floors or walls. For floor tiles, you recieve the resources displayed on the tile (credits or energy, or both). For walls, if the wall has a large number on it, you gain that many points for draining it. If the wall has a program listed on it, you permanently gain that program. However, EVERY wall also summons more enemies when you hack it; this is displayed as a number also. On score walls it's always equal to the score value. You need to be very, very careful, and weigh your options; is that anti-virus program worth the danger of the 4 enemies it's going to send at you? Should you grab that Step program, despite that it's position means you cannot get it without hacking a second wall at the same time? Is that big tempting 7 point wall worth a go, do you have the programs to deal with it?

Using your programs well (and making decisions on which to go for) is the key to victory. The game ends up being like a big (and cruel) puzzle. Figuring out which programs to use, and in what order, is never easy, and ALL programs are useful in some way... but they all cost credits, resources, or both. Make a mistake, and you can go down fast; 3 hits and your run is over, though you heal 1 point of HP every time you enter a new sector. The depth here is huge, and it's what makes the game so good and addictive. There are numerous programs to unlock, as well. Each new one brings all sorts of strategic possibilities to the game when you encounter it.

And the way the spawning works means that to some degree, you create your own difficulty. Yes, enemies constantly appear, but aside from the loading of a new sector, they do this slowly. Other than that... your actions will determine when, and how many, enemies will spawn, based on which walls you hack. Once you've taken an action, you need to use your programs, basic attacks, the level structure, and even the enemy's own behaviors against them in order to escape certain doom.


All in all, this is an absolutely fantastic game. Very, very addicting, very very fun, and the nature of it means that as you get better, you can up the challenge by simply going after bigger and bigger scores each time. And above all else, it has alot of depth.

I've played this absolutely to death on the iPad, and I'm very glad to see the port of it appear on here (and it's a good port, too). I definitely can recommend this one.. Puzzle Pac-Man with guns and power ups.

I got this on sale. I have to admit, I probably would have been upset if I had spent a lot of cash on this. (Irrationally.) But it is exactly the sort of thing I would have feed a few hundred quarters into in the 1980's. So I'm kind of glad I got this today instead of finding it then. (Not that it existed. Just a comparison.)

Definitly worth the quarters. 8). A great game.

Arcade styling, synthy music...

Try to get a high score. Kind of like a relaxing and more intelligent version of Pac Man.

Each level is random. You have a limited supply of 'siphons' which unlock moves and skills to get you through the level. Come up with a strategy.

This game can be quite difficult. I am not a genuis, but this game has a comfortable level of strategy.

This is a game you can pick up and put down. A good game for zoning out the world.

A solid arcade entry that everyone should try.

1 Suggestion: Take some time to learn what the different skills do and the patterns of the 'viruses' ... the tutorial is somewhat lacking.. It's fast and frantic despite being entirely turn based. You will die to things you saw coming a mile away. You will lose entire runs to one errant keystroke. You will occasionally eke out a victory only to be told to do it again, but harder, and with more stuff. All of this will repeat itself at an incredible pace.

10 terribly placed .Restore programs out of 10. The game screen is shoved into the bottom right corner of my screen so I cant see a big chunk of the game.
