About Hacknet

Hacknet is a hacking simulation played mainly through a command-line terminal. Players connect to nodes, run port-cracking programs and navigate file systems to complete missions, guided by emails from a hacker who recently died. Real Unix-style commands and a tense soundtrack shape the experience.
