About this game

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' ***

Solid experience overall. Has an engaging and well thought out storyline with challenges that genuinely gave me a sense of accomplishment. Definitely a little short; I finished in around 2 hours, however, I did need to use the 'answer' keyword once or twice. Like many other reviews, one of my biggest issues was the navigation. Sometimes the keyboard just stopped working, and some puzzles require you to go back and forth from the built-in web browser which can be very cumbersome.

I want more mobile games like this--a single story line, a sense of completion at the end, and something more challenging than a click and point. Challenges I had--phone browser made it difficult to navigate (especially the in game "web" and parts which required a lot of back and forth). Also not a great way to navigate a game using a phone keyboard. Finally, some of the logic jumps weren't really well established.

Really enjoyable simulator game with a story that is surprisingly engaging, complex, original, and epic. The story is filled with genuine surprises and twists, and continually scales into an evolving epic tale until it culminates in pretty far reaching outcomes. The 'hacker' gameplay is rudimentary and repetitive but still fun. Many illogical & downright impossible scenarios arising from ludonarrative dissonance, but in support of gameplay and story they work fine. Inconclusive ending and buggy.
