Got this little gem on sale. Love the help guide starting out. I also came up with a few tips to help speed up. 1) use notepad to type some of the commands especially when some things are repetitive i.e. malware jobs from the same people. 2) always look for a mamazon account when hacking to purchase upgrades when you can, this will save you from spending your own coin. (with caution of course) 3)Keep playing it gets more in-depth. Grind through the repetitive stuff, and youll soon get to do alot more. 4)DO ALL JOBS EVERY DAY! it's really the fastest way to progress 5)Search for and download all .txt files You never know when you'll need a mamazon, sweam, or lazy eats account to upload. 6)GET FASTER with typing and copy/paste so you don't get disconnected/ or found out and arrested. lol My review is, don't listen to the gripes. Take it for what it is. Hacking is a lot of rinse and repeat so keep that in mind. It's still being updated so give dev credit where credit is due. I got it on a huge sale, and have had a bit of a blast with it. As far as music in the game. short instrumental playlist. Might suggest turning game music off and use your own playlists. Yes it helps to play with music on. Also don't feel like I have to grind this game. It has a save feature and you can hop on, do a few jobs, and hop off. something to keep in your game library for those days you get burnt out on other time consuming games. It's a fun little game. It would be nice to see dev add in blackmail jobs i.e. Mayor has an affair, and desperately reaches out to ILLEGAL YOU, to go on the mistress' pc and steal evidence that would make him lose his political position. Or coverup jobs where a cartel has you move their illegal files to a fall guys PC. Or takeover jobs where a company has you hack a rival company and drain their financials to put the opposition out of business. So many things to add to this game to give you a greater sense of dangerous achievement. So you feel more in character. Game is great for what is. Could be EVEN MORE with events and QOL Features.

Hacker Simulator I’m not a master, but I do work in the computing field, and I wanted to try a game that blends entertainment with hacking fundamentals. Reviews often call it “repetitive,” and yes, tasks like malware deployment, phishing, and credential recovery are repeated frequently—but that’s also realistic. Computing is repetitive by nature, and what matters is how well it’s presented. The game does a solid job here. Commands, tools, and syntax are basic but believable, showing that research went into the design. Voice acting is surprisingly strong, the music—especially Karl Casey’s tracks—sets a chill, immersive tone, and overall presentation is polished. Memorization plays a role, but the built-in HELP menu and clear instructions keep the game approachable. References to file names and tools make objectives understandable, even for players with little background. Timed sequences add pressure, requiring quick command execution to avoid detection, which keeps tension high. Ultimately, no one should treat this as a substitute for formal education. You’ll learn more from books and courses, but as a fictionalized introduction to hacking concepts, it’s fun, engaging, and far more approachable than a textbook. —The Ember Archives https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45601239/

This game has a lot of potential. I think that there are a room for more mechanics to make it a lot cooler. For instance, maybe a man in the middle attack could be added, so the player can actually get up and go outside into a world of some kind. Or maybe there can be a mechanic where the player uses more advanced techniques to hack something at a lower level, to take on a bigger target. In the state the game is in however, the gameplay loop looks like this. 1. make sure you switch wifi so your red bar doesn't fill up 2. check the messenger app or the other website for targets 3. social engineer the target 4. nmap the target and put the malware in or steal the information 5. Maybe or maybe not the network will have a time limit or will be more secure then usual so you gotta be fast 6. Repeat the process. Right now the game is capturing only very basic kinds of attacks and missions, nothing that exciting, could be a lot better. I would only recommend purchasing this game when on sale, it's worth the 5 dollars I got it at from the sale, it is not worth its full price of 25 dollars, not in the state it is in now anyway.

So, Hacker Simulator is a good way of learning somethings about the cybersecurity area, as you play a black hat hacker you need to access some IP adresses, phishing some social accounts and "make" your own exploits, Hacker Simulator is a game that i would recommend for those who want to know a little, or more, about the area and in a fun way to do it

This game had so much potential. If it kept getting updates, it would definitely be way more popular today. The gameplay is still fun, but since it hasn’t received a new update in a long time, it’s starting to feel a bit outdated. If the developers had continued supporting it with new content and improvements, it could have had a much bigger player base. It’s still a great game, but it’s hard not to think about how much better it could have been with ongoing updates.
