ModerateIt typically takes about 20 hours to finish the game, and players put about 30 hours into it overall.
The Hacker was known as the best of the best, delving into dark servers no one else could penetrate and returning with glittering data to sell on the black market. Nobody knows why they quit. Some say their will was broken by the dark secrets at the heart of the Mainframe. Some say they simply retired to a penthouse suite in Low Earth Orbit. But when you leave the world of high-stakes cybercrime, it's hard to stay gone. With a call from an old enemy in need of help.. 868-HACK is 868-BACK.

Main gameplay is the same push-your-luck risk-vs-reward management that made HACK great. Most of the time, you are only getting overwhelmed by enemies, because you got too greedy. But what previously...

Challenging and thought-provoking and a lot of fun. Enthusiastic recommendation.
