Grey Hack

Grey Hack is a massively multiplayer hacking simulator game.

You're a hacker with full freedom to act as you wish on a vast network of procedurally generated computers.

File Explorer, Terminal and Text Editor are some of the programs that will be available from the start of the game. As you improve your skills you will find new utilities that you may install and use.

The terminal has a fundamental role, based on real UNIX commands; it is an indispensable tool for carrying out successful hacking operations.
Online mode: A living persistent world.
Explore the Grey Hack universe and forge your own reputation in a world shared by all players.

When you leave the game, the online universe remains actively running 24/7.

This always active game session means that the changes you have made in any computer in the world can be seen by players who connect to them even if you are no longer online. Your progress will be saved, but your actions may have consequences.

Grey Hack will never have a monthly subscription to enjoy the online experience.
Roadmap
Grey Hack is in the Alpha phase. Version 0.6 has now been completed and development of version 0.7 has begun.

You can check the Roadmap in detail here. You will find updated information on the features that have been implemented, and which ones will be added in the coming updates.

Here is a summary of some features that are not yet available in the current version but will be included in future updates:

One of the main objectives of the development is that each player action influences the world and therefore the other players.

For example, you will be able to act in your own self-interest; even if you cause collateral damage, help the authorities stop criminals or simply keep a low profile and take advantage of the actions of other players.

Another planned feature is the possibility of joining a group of hackers to carry out coordinated attacks, or creating your own group in which you will be able to recruit other players.
Can I be hacked as soon as I start a new game in online mode?
No, to be hacked you need to have open ports in your machine, and for that you have to perform a series of steps.

Some game elements require that you open ports on your machines, but it is not possible for someone to hack a new player who has just started.
Single Player Mode
Grey Hack is intended to be played in Online Mode, benefiting from the richer environment of an always-online universe, but the game also offers a single player mode for those so inclined.

In Single Player mode, you play in a world created on your computer. Unlike Online Mode, when you exit the game in Single Player, the in-game universe stops, and progress resumes only upon your return.

In Single Player mode, during the development, you may experience a worse performance than Online Mode. This is because in Single Player mode all the system load and background processes are performed on your computer, unlike the Online Mode where the same functions are performed by the official Grey Hack server.
