NODE: PROTOCOL - A full immersive hacking sim based on real exploits and C2 tools. Choose missions or pure free-roam. The world adapts to your every move, and strikes back
Key gameplay:
Realistic terminal hacking pipeline; research. 95+ commands. More then 70+ authentic exploits including rootkits.
Physics-Driven Hardware - Real-time thermal simulation, power draw, GPU load, noise, and throttling. Overheat mid-hack and your rig literally slows down.
Living Trace & Heat System - Every action leaves dual-track logs (network + filesystem). Heat builds, trace speed, LTE burner failover, VPN phone-home risk, and full Fed Raid consequences that strip progress but never end the game.
Volatile Economy & Crypto - Real BTC price swings, tainted wallets, multi-tier tumbling, blockchain forensics missions, and on-the-fly mining on compromised servers.
250 Domains, 2,250+ Persistent targets, containing over 2,000 LAN nodes. Every server is real. High variety of OS layers, including vlans and security devices.
Advanced systems:
SIGINT & Phone Warfare - Signal Decoupler app: IMSI catching, SS7 exploits, Pegasus zero-click iPhone chains, MFA interception, evil_twin and live waterfall spectrogram.
Cobalt Strike C2 + Postal Delivery - Deploy beacons, run phishing campaigns, and physically deliver BadUSB/Rubber Ducky payloads via courier with customs risk and tracking logs.
5 Ruthless Rival Hackers, reach high trust and they start harassing you - eliminate them permanently or get hunted.
Dynamic Botnet & DDoS - Infect servers with bots or automate this with worms, launch city-wide attacks, and manage CSI detection index.
Multiplayer & Social Layer

Every mission hits real infrastructure.
Every failure leaves a trace.
Every success makes you the most wanted Neural Operator alive.
