Decker

Decker is a hacking simulator set in 2083, where propaganda, oppression and profit shape the world. After John Anderson is laid off from his programming job of 12 years so his company can cut payroll by 4%, he is left destitute and alone. He decides to turn against the system and claim his long-overdue payday by hacking megacorporations.

Infiltrate corporate networks

Autonomous software guardians patrol corporate systems and repel unauthorized users. You use a cobbled-together, highly illegal hacker OS to break into networks and take what you can. Intrusion Countermeasures can disable or cripple your computer, so you must avoid detection through careful maneuvering or specialized stealth software.

Scan files to identify likely profits on the Information Black Market, or find poorly secured access points to corporate accounts and siphon their cash. You can repair disabled portions of system memory while dodging or fighting enemy software, or strengthen your defenses with advanced shielding software and attack in return.

Missions and upgrades

The game combines hand-crafted networks with procedurally generated missions. Its main storyline offers 20–25 hours of gameplay. You can upgrade your motherboard, CPUs, RAM and hard drives, and learn new programs and improve them through study.

Life and finances

You manage your finances while bills continue to come due. Takeout of varying levels of edibility is delivered by drones twice daily. The story also involves thwarting a megacorporation's plot for world domination.
