About Hack RUN

Hack your way into the heart of a mysterious organization to uncover their secrets. Hack RUN® is a game which uses 'old school' command prompts (like DOS or UNIX) that simulate a real operating system. Learn the commands of each system to help you navigate through your adventure.

As you hack into their systems, you will learn about the organization and the people who work there. Read files and emails to find clues and riddles which will give you access to more accounts. Data found on their systems will help you learn about the motives of the organization, and how dark their plans can get. You may also discover dirty little secrets about the employees as well.

Hacking into new accounts or discovering key information will increase your skill level. As you achieve your goals, you will move closer and closer to the final achievement; over 50 levels deep!

It's time for a Hack RUN!

Stuck on a level? Just use the 'hint' or 'answer' commands to help you along.

*** Make sure to play the SECOND game in this series called 'Hack Run ZERO' ***

What a fantastic concept! I've been looking for games like this ever since I started playing A Dark Room. The cryptic mood, the mysteries, the humor, the ability to use the Internet to look at the websites, everything felt so involved and I really loved that. That red font certainly spooked me. I'm excited to try the next game. I can't believe I finished this in a day. I'm definitely replaying this; sort of gives you a nice feeling of being able to pretend to understand programming, haha, although I know it's a lot tougher than this game. What a great game this is. Thank you so much for the experience.

I think I found a glitch. I'm at the beginning on the sixth level and everytime I try to type in a tip it changes to stop and tells me it's an unrecognized command. Maybe I just don't get it. Update: still broken

I can't get past level 2.i keep pressing h or help and it says unrecognized command. I also pressed hint and answer and it says the same thing

Y70%
by Y####:

I think it was a fun game. The games only real shortcoming is that it has absolutely no replay value. Once you beat it it's basically a game to uninstall, which sucks because I had fun. I would have been pretty upset if I had paid for this game, but I got lucky enough to catch it on sale for free. Should not be $3 if you can complete it in an hour and there is no replay value. Still a fun game though

A70%
by A####:

Nice idea, but pretty repetitive and tedious at times. 90% is learning passwords and reading emails. The biggest challenge was remaining engaged.

Y70%
by Y####:

Seems like a great game, I played the demo and loved it although whenever I type any command, including help, it just says un recognized command. This is stopping me from getting any enjoyment from the game. Update: This glitch has still not been fixed, therefore the game is still is still unplayable.

Probably the most accurate-feeling hacker game that doesn't require knowledge of code. All the reviews said to not bother work the free version and it was definitely worth the impulse buy!

A quality puzzle game with an engrossing, sci-fi storyline, in a simplistic hacking simulation. I'm glad the game includes a built in notepad to keep track of all the passwords and game elements. The hint command helped to stay on task when returning to the game. The in-game web browser and progressively more complex program commands worked well with the touch screen. However, the gameplay is very linear and simplistic. Multiple commands don't have to be chained together in a meaningful way (other than to look up information) to pass a level. It would have been nice to have, for instance, learned about something as basic as proxy servers and then having to use them before connecting to a system. I did enjoy the game and am looking forward to the next one.

This was challenging but a lot of fun. Started it up to give it a try and played it until my phone was dying.

Would love to try this game and I know I would like it but I can't do anything as typing anything even help, hint or answer just says unrecognized command so I can't even play it, would love to find a solution but can't find anyone else that has the same problem that has found a solution so I guess I just won't get to play this game

***SPOILERS MAYBE*** The story was a bit lacklustre, especially the end. Overall amazing!

Great game. Not too difficult, but does make you think a bit here and there. Worth a few bucks for sure.

A lot of the answers are pretty obvious and the story is pretty weird, but over all it is a great puzzle game. I had a lot of fun playing through it and it is worth the money. Have fun #born2run

Hey creators :) enjoying the game but although I have the answer to get to level 10 ( yeah I cheated! ) it's not letting me through. Assume I have a modicum of intelligence and tell me am I missing something!? Well... here's an editorial...keep looking if you're stuck! There seems to always be an answer!

I hate restarting from the beginning every time I want to play. You're forced to remember everything, so either make sure you have a great memory or have a pen and paper at hand to remember what commands you typed at which level. Overall it's great if you know what you're doing.

Story took a turn for the silly and some parts are shot in the dark guesses but all around very fun puzzle game.

Q70%
by Q####:

The story gets quite silly, it is short, and the case sensitivity did ruin a couple of puzzles for me (you know my phone is going to capitalise everything, right?). But that didn't significantly detract from what was a very unique and satisfying experience. Nice work.

N70%
by N####:

It says you don't have to start over every time, but if I have to enter all the commands I did from the beginning, that's starting over every time. Showing me a list of what I've done before, and then making me swype it all over again, killed my interest.

I have not been genuinely happy with an app I've installed in a long time. this is by far one of the best games I've played and I'm only on level 9! Keep up the great work. :D
