A text adventure, Hack RUN is a one of a kind game that uses your iDevice’s keyboard for input and requires you actually pay attention to that which you’re reading. The virtual hacking fun isn’t limited to iOS, you can play Hack RUN on Android, Mac and as a Facebook app in your browser.
Who’s It For, Really?
There’s obviously quite a considerable difference between pretending you’re a hacker and actually gaining access to servers not meant for your eyes. That said, Hack RUN does blur the lines a bit as this isn’t your usual mobile game Bored of Angry Birds? 5 Unconventional iOS Games That Do Things DifferentlyEvery day hordes of new games hit the App Store, but far too many of them feel the same. Developers see something selling, and they want to get a piece of the pie. What if.. Read More . As this is probably best described as a “hacking simulator” or “text adventure” and you’ll be doing a lot of what “hackers” do – namely typing commands into a command line interface like it’s 1983 Cathode & Blinky: Sexy Vintage Replacements For Terminal & TextEdit [Mac OS X]Do you spend half your life inside the OS X Terminal?

This is only going to have limited appeal to some gamers, as typing text commands into touchscreen keyboard isn’t everyone’s idea of fun. That said, Hack RUN is a very rewarding game with a strong narrative that leaks enough juicy information during play to keep you entertained for hours. The experience is a bit like a book in that you’ll be reading a lot of other people’s documents, email and scouring websites to uncover the plot buried beneath. If you enjoyed Uplink, you’ll enjoy Hack RUN.
And what a plot it is! In the beginning you’re simply approached by an individual known as “Your Employer” who has enlisted your help in hacking a particular network. From your terminal you must begin your journey deep into the company’s private networks, using a variety of text commands and your grey matter.
As you begin to probe at the mystery that’s set to be unravelled in front of you, you’ll learn a few things about the company whose servers you’re plundering for information. It’s a little bit “conspiracy theory”, with the company taking on the role of a large pharmaceutical firm accused of working with some less-than-reputable wholesalers. You will discover this and more information as you raid employee email accounts and browse the “web” (these “websites” are all stored locally, meaning you can play the game without a connection).
Text-Based Touchscreen Gaming
Around 90% of Hack RUN’s gameplay involves short commands being typed into a faux computer terminal, and for this reason the game works better on a larger touchscreen device (such as the iPad) or desktop. Luckily, the experience isn’t actually that difficult on a smaller screen thanks to the easy-to-type commands. These include staples like “ls” for listing directory contents and “mail” to launch the current user’s mail client.
These commands can also be used simply by typing the first letter, which makes playing on an iPhone considerably easier. Much of your work will involve revealing clues and deciphering the passwords therein, a task that’s really easy to begin with. Each time you gain another credential (usually a password, or access to a new hacking routine) you’ll advance a level, of which there are 50 to master.
Each level you advance is saved, so you don’t have to start from the beginning every time. Every time you discover a new password, it appears under the System Status option in the main menu (accessible any time using the “X” in the top right corner of your terminal). If you become stuck at any point you can type “hint” and you will be given a nudge to get you moving in the right direction. If things are looking really grim, then the “answer” command helps open the door.
And that’s pretty much all there is to Hack RUN without spoiling the story. It’s handy to be able to “cheat” if you really need it, this is a game after all. Hack RUN might not be the usual “pick up and play” mobile blast, and that’s because it isn’t.

Hacking games remain far too few and far between, and often make the mistake of veering into far too complicated territory for the newb to enjoy. Hello, I am the newb.
In fact, it’s not since Uplink that I’ve enjoyed the process. I’m not sure if that’s changed with Hack RUN. A super-simple command prompt-led hacking sim, with a nice amount of detail around the edges, and around the web. It’s been around a while, and has a bunch of sequels on iOS, but has just showed up which is where I first spotted it.If you’re like me, when you see a URL mentioned in a fiction TV show, you’ll immediately put it into your phone to see if they’ve had the imagination to put something there.

(How I Met Your Mother is by far one of the best at this.) The same applies to games, so the first time my sniffing through the email accounts of employs of the ReUsing Nature pharmaceutical company (RUN) showed a mention of a web address – the name of a band liked by one of the game’s characters, – I put it into my browser. Not just a website, but a full song with video, that contains clues for the game.
