As a video game, The Lonely Hacker hits all the right notes when it comes to the depiction of how hacking is done in real life. Real terminologies used such as exploits, botnets, keyloggers, injections, and many more are integrated in the gameplay. This may all seem mumbo jumbo for the layman, but trust me, it’s as real as it can get for a video game. The game takes on the role of an up-and-coming hacker sponsored by an organization called “The Agency”. Setting players up with starting cash, computer hardware, and a custom hacking OS which will be the main GUI of the game — slightly customizable by the way — via themes and wallpaper. The background music is a bit too cringey for me, but you can turn that off if you wish.

From the title itself "hacker", it's obvious this game is about hacking. This game somehow does not work for me, (not in a bad way) because I'm not familiar with some of the instructions, and I don't have much knowledge of computers. *Sigh* I don't have so much patience with regard to learning stuff about computers but the graphics and the sounds for me are fantastic!! It's cool! Hacking for me is not really good, but if you use it in an investigation to help people, well this can help, to have more knowledge of hacking, but of course, for good purposes. 🤣
